Note: Before I even say anything, from here on out, about half of my posts will either mention, include or be based on this song.
This is part one of my Swagger Series. It will either feature songs, albums, rappers or anything I can think of. Thieves in the Night by Black Star is my favorite song, evar, for obvious reasons. If you have listened to this song, and understand it, we can talk. Until then… Black Star – Thieves in the Night [MP3 Audio Download Link]

makes you wonder why the debut/first incarnation of legendary rappers is almost always the best?
is it the record companies, like everyone claims?
or is it that, the further rap gets from the streets, the deader it becomes. the rappers floatin on record contracts are the most concerned with proving how thugged out they are. street dudes don’t waste their time on the mic talkin about the way they live, but rather use it to prove a larger point.
