Irish Legend, The - Patrick Street

Advantages: Street Life's spectacular lyricism is stellar like A STAR and IS BORN within each song.
Disadvantages: Filler songs with atrocious beats that make my ears HUNG in THESE hideous STREETS!

...born hustler and street-orientated storyteller. As a narrator, he based his lyricism on educating us rap listeners about gang-related, street violence that caused tragic deaths of victims in public sectors. He carried out this lyrical task on the magical, Hellz Wind Staff to conjure up lyrics about the colossal pressure of people's survival in deprived projects. He used a plethora of multi-syllable rhymes to describe the terrible lifestyles of crews in ghettos of the slums, where gang members risk dying for cash flows. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, I present a review of Street Life ( real name: Patrick Charles ) and his album on 'STREET EDUCATION' that paints a bleak description of the ghetto. With his thoughts HUNG in THESE STREETS, Street Life already knew the problems that existed within the black... Read review

...~ ~ So what’s this, you may well ask? A music review from the “mad cabbie”!!!! Am I seeing right? Well, believe it or believe it not, the only reason I have never written in this category before is because no matter how hard I try to attempt to get across what I want to convey, it all seems to come out all cock-eyed.
