I seen her on the ave, spotted her more than once.
Ass so fat that you could see it from the front…

- Mos Def, “Ms. Fat Booty,” Black on Both Sides, 1999

The sunset looks beautiful over the projects…
What a shame, it ain’t the same where we stand at.
If you look close, you can see the bricks chipped off.
Sometimes niggas miss when they lick off.

- Prodigy, “Streets Raised Me,” Murda Muzik, 1999

The last batter to hit, blast shattered your hip
Smash any splitter or fastball—that’ll be it…

Now I’ve got the world swingin’ from my nuts
And damn it feels good to be a gangsta!

- Willie D., “Damn it Feels Good to Be a Gangsta,” from Geto Boys’ Uncut Dope, 1999
