Perhaps the catchiest part of this track is the vocal-less hook, a riff credited to Issac Hayes is slapped between verses by Scarface to produce one of the mot recognized sounds in hip hop to this day. Film, media and related arts - subjective contemplation and commentary with consideration of the intrinsic duality, interminable relevance and evolution of each. Perhaps extreme, the soft and insecure image cast was a hip hop first, especially when gangsta rap hold a stranglehold on the game. Delivering an anecdote of police interaction resulting in a fight – only for it to be a paranoid hallucination. Not left alone, Bushwick Bill provides an insight into his psyche that rivals Scarface. Losing sleep, contemplating suicide and even hoping for a car accident, Scarface opens up on the track. The track is definitely led by Scarface, taking two of the verses, he depicts a life plagued by worry. Geto Boys - Still (Spectrum Remix), Still, Still, Still, Still (Spectrum Remix), Still (Spec Remix), Still (instrumental), Still, Still (Family Guy OST), -Still (Uncensored Version), RWM - Geto. Revealing a huge chink in the hip-hop armour, streams of artists followed in the Geto Boys’ footsteps in a wave of insecurity. Rated number five on Rolling Stone‘s ’50 Greatest Hip Hop Singles’, the track approaches a topic untouched by any hip-hop artist before: paranoia. The importance of this record cannot be understated on a number of grounds. The near-fatal incident was a result of Bill’s increasing paranoia – a topic covered in depth in the group’s most popular single, Mind’s Playing Tricks on Me.Īlthough not documented in this song, the result of Bill’s paranoia is displayed proudly on the cover of We Can’t Be Stopped, the album birthing the hugely influential single that’s made this week’s throwback. One drunken evening in May 1991, Bushwick Bill of the Geto Boys was rushed to hospital after a self-inflicted gunshot blew his eye out.
