The Geto Boys have earned notoriety for their lyrics which cover controversial topics such as misogyny, gore, psychotic experiences, and necrophilia.
One of its cleanest lines is as follows: "She begged me not to kill her, I gave her a rose - then slit her throat and watched her shake 'til her eyes closed." The rest of the album helped draw the lyrical blueprint that countless groups either mimicked or borrowed from, from the yuks served up by Bushwick in "Size Ain't Shit" to the ridiculously misogynistic rhymes in "Gangster of Love," which are delivered over the guitar lick from Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama." You can also either blame them or thank them for the endless flurry of Scarface samples that have littered/adorned so many hip-hop records. Geto Boys is a rap group from Houston, Texas, consisting of Scarface, Willie D, and Bushwick Bill. A horror fantasy of grim, graphic proportions, it's a gangster flick and a psychological thriller rolled into the form of a song. Gangsta of love - mixtape version Lyrics: Gangster of love / Ive never been played by a ho / If the bitch is acting stupid / Shes got to go / Some mutherfuckers missadden / If she fucks. "Mind of a Lunatic" is one such song, and it's one of the primary tracks that caused the Def American-affiliated Geffen to pull the plug on distribution. This works like a charm - the album is expertly sequenced, and some songs seem to have twice the impact of their original incarnations.
Rick Rubin stepped in, signed the group to Def American, and proceeded to tweak some of the tracks some other tracks were simply lifted from Grip It!, while a couple went so far as to have new vocals recorded. This is a revamped version of Grip It! On That Other Level, an album released earlier in the year on Rap-A-Lot.
