| DMX – Bring Your Whole Crew Lyrics
| 21 years ago
|
I think this song might be about tupac. I know DMX took offense to Tupacs trash talking on New York, and released a freestyle saying something about Tupac. This is kind of his style of battle rap too (ie no specific references-unlike hit em up by Tupac) its the same thing he did in "Party Up" , supposedly about Slim Shady because DMX took offence to "Forgot about Dre's" lyrics ("i'ma kill you an them loud ass mutha fuckin barkin dogs").
Whoever this song is about we can all relate to a main charcter (DMX) who has had his patience tested and or has a strong dislike for some trifling antagonist who we are either not scared of at all or some pumped up on adrenalin that we've forgotten fear alltogether. Arrogantly Mocking a potential enemy with "I just love when a nigga bring his whole crew It's just a bigger piece of cake for me to chew a hole thru", the main character is clearly more than confident, he's bombastic. We all love that feeling, to be intoxicated by our own power (or our own percieved power--when dmx is done barking and calmed down and thinking rationally would he really want to take on an entire crew of thugs? if he was so stupid would he reallly stand a chance? NO! thats why he and all rappers travel with body guards everywhere. We all know what its like to make claims we cant keep in rage like this main character, which is one reason we like this.) |

enough props douches, the sites called songMEANINGS, not dickridersanonymous. Why dont you look at some comments on non rap forums to see how its done. Rap is goodbut for some reason rap fans on this site cant grip the idea that you are supposed to explain the story of the song and the meaning that story has. |

haha. Not actually. T J was a music producer. He worked with the beach boys. He heard some song or story by a (french? that'd make since he's from montreal) composer or author. The tale was one of a young man confronting an untimely death, maybe a terminal illness. T J thought is was beautiful and pitched it to the beach boys who rejected it. HE took matters into his own hands and entered the pantheorn of one hit wonders witht this gem which stuck on the canadian charts for ages and has found its way into countless compilations and cover bands. |

Building Eralstud's historical account of the song, I'd add that the lyrics tell a story of a man in a period of transition. The story is one of a man struggling with loneliness and identity. Ultimately, he has no one to support him but himself, which is not enough. |
