Sample the Origins of Horrorcore Rap

"When I was young, horror movies is all I watched… That's all I've been into, ripgut cannibal. And then, basically, all I do is eat meat! That's my thing."

—Brotha Lynch Hung

"An early horrorcore classic, 'Return of Da Baby Killa' finds Brotha Lynch Hung's narrator murdering unborn babies in the most fucked up way imaginable. The worst part is, the narrator admits he's not entirely sure why he does it: 'Season of da siccness brooding, got me tripping for no reason.'"

—Highsnobiety

"The onetime Meadowview Crip drenched himself in murderous themes, bloody gun warfare, occasional cannibalism, and bleary keyboard funk. (...) A rapper-producer who pioneered slang like 'sicc,' 'ripgut,' and 'locc.'"

—Rolling Stone (The 100 Greatest West Coast Hip-Hop Songs of All Time)
