Man Recordings Inspiration Series #10 : Paris
December 9th, 2008
Besides Public Enemy, Paris was one of the other great radical voices in early 90s U.S. rap. Paris became known for his song “Bush Killa”, in which he promoted fantasy lyrics of killing George Bush Sr. and racist police officers. For me though “The Devil Made Me Do It” was Paris´biggest tune. With it´s gutter drenching bassline and it´s radical lyrics the track was a slap in the face to both the romantic Native Tongues rap as well as the emerging West Coast gangster rap.
