Spice 1:
But now the street is a place you could be swallowed by death
Brothers takin each other’s lives
And going to rest in peace
I wonder if heaven got a ghetto
My cousin died last year
And I still can’t let go
from the song 'Welcome To The Ghetto'

Spice 1

A rapper from Hayward, California known for his grim and frightening portrayal of urban street life in his music. He was first discovered by rapper Too $hort, and garnered much respect from late rapper Tupac Shakur.

Spice 1: "A touchin scene niggas screamin in the rain
Looked in his homeboy's face
His homie said his name
Now he'd be lookin for that nigga with the Gat and
Ready for that Redrum
With the face of a desperate man"
