One third of original Southern gangsters The Geto Boys, Willie D's not one for fluff or bubble gum rap. His beats are cutting, and he's straight to the point and abrasive.
"Wet 'M" is dedicated to radio-friendly artists, a tale of stalking and "shooting them up like a syringe," reminding everyone that he's seen it all and there's nothing new out there. "Lil' Killaz" weaves the story of a kid who looks up to the Geto Boys, wants money and power, disregards his family and anything else stopping his rise to the top, and his eventual demise. "Dear God" uses a clever interpolation of the XTC song of the same name, but twists it into a straight-faced plea to God to help both Willie's fading sanity and humanity. The Hot Boyz give a dedication to Willie and his former band mates in "Dem Boyz," reminiscing on how they looked up to the Geto Boys and how the band made them what they are today. "I'll Make U Famous" relates the pitfalls of using another's misfortune for personal gain.
Industry Reviews
...There's no question that he's still the same 'trigga-happy nigga' from Houston's Fifth Ward. He aims hollow-tipped messages at the domes of suburbanites who ignore ghetto strife with pensive songs....He's in the rap biz to make history, not friends.
