Sixteen years later, I still get mileage out of the Bushwick Bill quote, "Why you shot me in the eye? I woulda shot you in the body!" ("Ever So Clear," 1992.) Such sweet paradox, on so many ridiculous levels. That said, I can't even imagine what verbiage might be available on his new Jesus piece. From allhiphop.com :
Rapper Bushwick Bill, a member of the controversial, legendary Southern rap group The Geto Boys, is set to release his sixth solo album, with an unexpected twist. Testimony of Redemption, which Bushwick hopes to release later this year, will be his first foray into Gospel Rap. The new album is mostly autobiographical and confessional in nature, with Bushwick apologizing for his past misogynistic lyrics on “Praise of a Good Woman” and owning up to his wild past on “Renewed Mind,” which borrows the same Isaac Hayes sample as the Geto Boys’ classic “Mind Playing Tricks On Me.” Full Story
They forget to mention that Bill's relationship with the ladies is still a work in progress.
