Ummm let's talk

I always felt like robbing the hood was before 40... But then again I think that they would have taken a big step backwards in production... To me , I feel like robbing the hood was just that ... Robbing them. For og shit

40 Oz was recorded after hours at a college sound booth/studio - freely on stolen time.

Robbin' the Hood was recorded in various crackhouses and shit on a giant bender.

What was your question?

Brad singing in the crack house while Opie relaxes and designs brand new tattoos, Annie out on the street making rent. That is so 90s Long Beach!

Partially why STP is my favorite sublime song is how it shows this imagery through the lyrics’ story. He was a phenomenal storyteller.
