Whitey Ford Sings the Blues (1998)

 * Gotta kill these pains Or blow out my brains To free me from these chains I'm trapped in this physical hell To walk again I just might sell my soul And I'm only twenty somethin' years old
 * "Painkillers"


 * So if you've had enough and are ready for your stand I'll be waiting with the stone that's in my hand.
 * "Stone in My Hand"

My eventual thing is like hopefully cats will really recognize that everything I’ve done that they considered outside of hip-hop, really was hip-hop at the end of the day and that maybe at the end of the day, I would love to be the guy that killed the word "genre".

My main beef with what's going on right now is this freaking autotune stuff.. It's really ignorant, I don't even get it..It's like, you know my dog could bark into a microphone and I could get it to sound like Lil' Wayne.
