Mobb Deep - Shook Ones Pt. II

The song is told from the perspective of inner-city youths engaged in territorial warfare and struggling for financial gains. It does not, however, offer any apologies for its grim tone, nor does it offer any solutions to the problems it discusses. This factor plays a key role in its impact, as the intentions of the song, with its threatening perspective, is left up to the listener to interpret. Because of this, the song is one of the more thought-provoking, and complex hardcore rap songs to emerge in the aftermath of Death Row's dominance in mid-1990s Hip hop. [wikipedia]
