Bambu - "Quit" Produced by iLLMind
As many songs that come out these days from internet gangsters and e-Thugs, spitting lyrics about shootouts and drug deals that could only have occurred during a session of GTA4, there seem to be just as many songs that call out the virtual 'bangers for promoting a lifestyle that they've never experienced. Quit, from former Native Guns member Bambu, is yet another entry in the latter category, however Bam's criticism has a little more weight behind it as he was in a gang during his high school years and actually understands the consequences of the lifestyle, having served time in prison as a result of his gang affiliation. It's certainly not a new argument, but it's hard to argue with Bambu's point that the glorification of gang life by rappers who have only seen Hollywood's version of it is little more than an exploitation of the real lives that have been lost to violence.
Quit was produced by Jersey City's iLLMind. The song is off of his album Exact Change, which you can cop over at cdbaby.
