Yo, yo.

Yo' take my life but I take yo's too
Yo' fire your gat but I'll gut you foo
So when you're waitin' for the next drive-by
Yo' better stand and look fuckin' fly

...

An' I lay there listenin' to the beats
My body's bleedin' out onto the streets
I ain't forgotten but I die alone
If only I had stayed home and banged my ho

LC rules da street ...

Man, at first I was like, "they're exaggerating, it's not THAT bad." Then I listened to more samples... realized ALL the tracks sound the same and apparently by the same artist and... yeah.... it sucks. It's a good idea and would like to see executed properly some day with competent hip hoppers.

Exactly, could be a really fun listen on occasion done by people who know what they're doing and respect the source material.  This is just a lazy cash-in.
 
Did anyone listen to the samples on the amazon.com site? Unless these are REALLY poor quality, they don't even sound like real string instruments--just some dude using Midi. Which is lame as hell to pass off as a "string tribute."
 
I'm the kind of guy who like all kinds of music. Even if I'm not into string music, I adore it.

But this? I fucking hate it, it all just seems to be rushed and played in a hurry which destroys the hell out of something that could've been good.

Like the audio samples of Fear of the Dark and Dance of Death - the two songs are amongst my favourite Maiden songs ever. They just... ruined the songs.

The beats sound the rush begins
But on this hip-hop stage no-one wins
The smell of MJ smoke and homie's breath
As you rap on into fuckin' death

Yeahohohohohoho
Yeahohohohohoho

That bitch sweats with fear we fuckin' run
Ain't no Russian gonna stop my fun
And we go to get our bitches up
The screams of pain as we fuck 'em up

We leap over homies spilt on the ground
Those Russian bitches slam back a round
Drinkin vodka shots so far away
Gonna cap those fools fuck their day

Yeahohohohohoho
Yeahohohohohoho

We get close enough to fuckin' fight
When a Russian gets me in his sites
He fuckin caps me I feel the blow
And my homie Mike gets shot yo

An' I lay there listenin' to the beats
My body's bleedin' out onto the streets
I ain't forgotten but I die alone
If only I had stayed home and banged my ho

Yeahohohohohoho
Yeahohohohohoho

This is amazing.
