Curtis Mayfield Is An American Gangster

This is easily my favorite track off that American Gangsta. Hov was really spittin like it was his first album again. I love it. And in case you were wondering, "Short Eyes" was a movie made back in 1977 based off a play about the inmates at the Tombs Detention center in New York.

I'll do you a favor. Email your favorite track off American Gangsta to thesoulsample@gmail.com and I'll give you the sample right here on the blog, plus a little shout out, of course.
