That was indeed a dope song.
This proves my point about how hip hop "niggas" are often more talented they they give them selves credit for. This brotha is a writer and could of written his way to salvation via novels etc, on some Langston hues shit...
I'm really surprised more rappers haven't been writing books over the past two decades....
Cosign- If this nigga was balling out on tour fucking mad bitches and drinking ceroc every night you think he would have snitched on himself? Nah dude prolly thinks his life turned out the way it did because he killed someone. I think he told in order to make the preceived curse go away. Fuck em and his brand of self destructive faggits

'Killer' hip-hopper who turned himself in didn't know victim died
The guilt-ridden rapper who confessed to a 17-year-old murder told The Post yesterday he didn't know his victim had died when he decided to come clean on the cold case.
Trevell Coleman -- whose rap name is G-Dep -- said cops dropped the bombshell after he went into the 25th Precinct station house Wednesday to admit to the Oct. 19, 1993, shooting of John Henkel.
"I was surprised -- for some reason, I really didn't think that he died," the bald and bearded Coleman said in a jailhouse interview.
"When they told me, I was like, 'Oh, I'm not going home after this.' "

OOPS: Rapper G-Dep wanted to clear his conscience for a 1993 shooting but didn't know the victim died.
Manhattan DA spokeswoman Erin Duggan said Coleman, 36, has now been charged with murder in the case. He faces life in prison.
PREVIOUSLY: RAPPER CONFESSES TO MURDER FROM 17 YEARS AGO
The rapper -- who signed with Sean Combs' Bad Boy label in 1999, was dropped a few years later, and last August signed with Famous Records -- said his dark secret "weighed on me."
It got so bad for him, he confessed despite the objections of loved ones.
"I told my mom and my girlfriend that I wanted to confess, and they both told me to leave it in the past," he said. "[My girlfriend] is pretty peeved."
Lyvonnia Copeland, 40, the mother of his three kids, declined to comment yesterday.
Coleman said he's been dogged by drug addiction, and that at the time of the shooting, "I didn't think about it."
"That's just the life I was living back then," he said. "I started to wonder if all the bad things that happened to me in my life were karma for what I did . . . you start to think 'My happiness is because of someone else's sadness.'
"I thought that if I turned myself in, it might give me closure."
NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly called Coleman's motivations "uncertain -- maybe he had a pang of conscience," but said: "We'll take it any way we can get it."
Coleman's criminal record includes nearly 30 arrests, a law-enforcement source said.
"This guy had particularly bad luck with getting caught," the source said, noting his most recent bust in November for trespassing with drugs on city-housing property.
"I haven't been living right," Coleman told The Post. "I always had people around me that were good people, but I was doing the wrong thing."
Though he said his confession confounds everyone -- "People in [jail] don't understand how you can confess," he said -- to Coleman, it makes perfect sense.
"I'm just trying to get right with God," he said.
Coleman said his career was just "little shows here and there."
"The only thing I regret is that I have to leave my kids," he said.
Family friend Thomas Frederick, 51, said the Harlem-born rapper's descent had been distressing for a neighborhood that had idolized him.
"He was like a celeb to the community," he said. "But after his grandmother who raised him died about four years ago, he was heavily into PCP -- like he wanted to leave this world."

bingo!
So he just wanted to confess to shooting the dude? and got hit with a murder charge.
jail or no jail his life was a living hell to him and he wanted some peace and closure. At least he can live out his years in prison at peace with himself "possibly"
If I'm walking around with a 17yr old unsolved body on my head I aint saying shit. There are no statue of limitations on murder first off, If it was one of my family members here in NYC trust me the person involved would want the cops to catch him before any of my relatives catch him... shit happens...Put me in G-Dep's shoes I aint saying shit.. And to top it off he is in a worst predicament confessing because it's too easy to touch a cat up in jail.
If that person he killed back then has family that is feeling a certain way he just created his own hell far worst then confessing. He needs to be in a mental institution he clearly is not stable. 17yrs on a cold case body and you just now turn your self in and cats talking about they would do the same thing. GTFOH you all are lying or on the same drugs G-Dep is on remember aint no BGOL in prison. So knock it off
you clearly speak with no life experience, you have to walk in a man's shoes to know the burden he carries. it's easy to talk bullshit on here when you pay hnic $10.00 to d/l porn while commenting on another person's life
Same thing I said. You didn't know we have a bunch of killers and keyboard thugs up here, who know what it's like to have killed someone
Sad when a dude doesn't get bashed for taking someones life, but for doing the right thing
Some of you are raising a generation of fucked up kids with no morals.
c/s, complex and largerbills
g-dep wanted closure, period!
it's funny how karma works
Quite the story ^
