Coolio

It’s pretty hard to talk about Coolio and not talk about THAT song. So let’s get it out of the way. Yes, you know all the words to “Gangsta’s Paradise”. Yes, so does everyone else. Yes, it may be the greatest song of the last thirty years. Yes, Michelle Pfeiffer was pretty babin’ back then. Done? Good. Now that we’ve deflated the “number one in thirteen countries” sized elephant in the room, we can move on the fact that the man we’re discussing is also a massively respect rapper, actor and record producer in his own right. So much more than a one hit wonder, Coolio has been dropping hits and acting up a storm since reaching chart paradise in 1995, pumping out tracks like “1,2,3,4 (Sumpin’ New)”, “Gangsta Walk” (which featured none other than Snoop Dogg) and even making a guest appearance on Futurama. That fact remains though, everyone is about to lose their Dangerous Minds (sorry – we couldn’t resist).
