West Coast hip-hop had a strong showing in the mid ’90s, and one of the most iconic songs to come from the era was “Gangsta’s Paradise” by Coolio. It was the theme song for the Michelle Pfeiffer-led Dangerous Minds film, and it won a handful of Grammys and has become a staple of pop culture. Featuring a dystopian view of life as a black man in LA, the song samples Stevie Wonder and thus has no cursing (as Wonder would not allow it)! Clay and Wes analyze the video for the mega-hit song and try to determine if both the song and the video hold up. * Listen to the songs we’ve covered!* Spotify Playlist* Listen and Subscribe: * Website* iTunes* Spotify* PocketCasts* RSS * Support the show:* Patreon* PayPal* Merchandise * Connect with us:* Wes on Twitter* Clay on Twitter* Facebook* Discord* E-mail
