Supa Graph's video: Geto Boys - Street Life - Live Music Video Clip

Geto Boys are a hip hop group from Houston, Texas forming in 1986, consisting of Scarface, Willie D and Bushwick Bill. The original Ghetto Boys consisted of: Prince Johnny C, Sire Jukebox, DJ Ready Red and Little Billy, the dancer who later came to be known as Bushwick Bill. The group released a mostly unheard of album titled 'Making Trouble'. The group broke up shortly after and a new line-up was put together with the inclusion of Scarface and Willie D, both aspiring solo artists. The Geto Boys earned notoriety for its transgressive lyrics which included gore, psychotic experiences, necrophilia and misogyny. Despite the explicit content of their songs, critic Alex Henderson argues that the group "comes across as much more heartfelt than the numerous gangsta rap...wannabes who jumped on the gangsta bandwagon in the early 90s." The Geto Boys broke new ground with their soulful southern sound (a precursor to the Dirty South style). In the early part of the 90s, several American politicians attacked gangsta emcees, including the Geto Boys (most famously Ice-T and the N.W.A). A high-profile incident in which Bushwick Bill lost an eye in a shooting with his girlfriend helped boost sales of its third album, We Can't Be Stopped. The album cover had a picture of the injured Bushwick being carted through a hospital by Scarface and Willie D. On the album's title track, the group responded to Geffen Records ending its distribution deal with Def American. "Mind Playing Tricks on Me" became a hit in the hip-hop community. The Geto Boys are credited as the group who put the south on the hip hop music map' and inspired a legion of acts including 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G., UGK, TI, Goodie Mobb, Outkast, Chamillionaire, Lil Wayne, Juvenile, Mystikal and others. The song "Street Life" from the album 'Till Death Do Us Part' was featured on the motion picture 'South Central'. This is the video clip for the song with footage from the film which was released.
