Cover art for Ghetto Qu'ran (Forgive Me) lyrics by 50 Cent

I was the first to say it years ago as juanasmoke.

This song 50 snitches on all the big time crack dealers and just breaks down how it was in the 80's-early 90's growing up in Queens.

When you hear talk of the Southside(Southside Jamaica, Queens) you hear talk of the team(Supreme Team). Supreme Team was a huge crack operation based in Queens and went throughout the city.

See niggas feared Prince(Supreme's cousin Gerald Miller) but respected Preme(Supreme Mcgriff). See Preme was the business man and Prince was the killer.

Whoever wrote these lyrics messed up the one line bad. "They roll with easy-widers and they ain't get blunted" is how it should be.

I used to idolize Cat (Lorenzo "Fat Cat" Nichols, associate and powder cocaine supplier to the "Supreme Team), hurt me in my heart to hear that nigga snitched on Pat. How he go out like that?

Even though 50 didn't mention that much it was enough to get charges against Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff and other members of the Supreme Team. But, 50 wasn't actually the first to "dry" snitch like this on a track though about Supreme Team though 50's was the one to get the attention of everyone.

On fellow Queens rapper Nas song "Memory Lane" on the Illmatic album he says "I hung around the older crews while they sling smack to dingbats They spoke of Fat Cat, that nigga's name made bell rings, black Some fiends scream, about Supreme Team, a Jamaica Queens thing Uptown was Alpo, son, heard he was kingpin, yo"

Alpo refers to Alberto Martinez who is a notorious drug kingpin with best friend Rich Porter and Azie Faison, which was the basis of the movie "Paid in Full"

That about sums it for you. Southside Jamaica
