b. Artis Ivey, 1964, Compton, Los Angeles, California, USA.
Boasting of a long, though infrequently recorded, career in
hip-hop, rapper Coolio appeared alongside other west coast
luminaries such as Dr. Dre when he was still with the World
Class Wreckin' Crew. He even signed to Ruthless Records for
a brief, unproductive spell. His debut release was 'Whatcha
Gonna Do', one of the very first Los Angeles rap records,
followed by 'You're Gonna Miss Me'.

After attending rehabilitation classes in an attempt to
kick his cocaine habit, Coolio started making music again,
with WC and DJ Alladin as part of WC And The MADD Circle
(one album for Profile Records ). He then joined the 40
Theivz, a hip hop community made up of producers, rappers
and dancers. Along with a friend More...

    Review about Coolio

    grreatttt<3 | Reviewer: angie
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    this is a truly great song. i don't even really like this music. i mean, i listen to shit like the smiths, devendra banhart, and interpol! but this song is really amazing. it portrays all kinds of troubled youth.


    Stevie! | Reviewer: Bert
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    I was soooo excited in 1995 when I heard this song, as it is based on Stevie's "Pastime Paradise" from "Songs in the key of life". As 14 year old boy, I listened to "The history of pop" and heard Pastime Paradise for the first time. I was in awe... An incredible song. And then Coolio took it and brought it to a new generation! Love U all


    cool redux | Reviewer: a ann
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    I guess no one knows that this great rap song is a redux of Stevie Wonder's "Pastime Paradise" from his 1976 masterpiece "Songs In The Key of Life" album. Give the Grand Master (Wonder) his due credits for being the original genius behind this song.


    pay respect | Reviewer: prince hew
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    this is the only song i respect and love listening to.. i respect the song, the song writer, the person the song was dedicated to and Coolio.. some times i reflect my live on this song... walking around in gangs and whacking ppl.. wat goes around come backs around.. a hell of a good song made in history. power o respect.. being afraid is not respect.. having respect wit no power is better and fear of a powerful person. wat ever u think u are u dont have to be tat.. advice from me.. peace be with u.. God died 4 every 1

    reflection | Reviewer: lime
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    A Respected Song | Reviewer: The Smart Sheep
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    Very good song, emotionally stimulating by music and lyrics. Rap was originally created to exress the troubled emotions of gangs. Obviously people lately have been screwing it up, and now Coolio's 'Gangsta Paradise' is referred to as "Old School".
    I usually have no respect for rap, but this I have respect for, because it doesn't give a personna of being cool, crude, man-whores laying their women and running from the police. It's actually just crying without tears with this song. The last verse Coolio sings study please...it explains he is doomed for his actions and feels trapped for his actions. The last verse altogether raps it up. They realized their blind actions of the pain they caused, and regret it.

    ...And this is The Smart Sheep signing out. God Bless


    its an okay song | Reviewer: wigga
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    A real life portrait | Reviewer: Rulo79
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    That song refects a sad reality of poverty and crime plagued life of most urban communities, expresing a no expectancies life,the "power of money" , loneliness, fractured families and crime life. It´s interesting to understand those people´s life, the other side of the modern society "progress" and the huge gap between different standards of living.


    Nobody probably understands this song... | Reviewer: Natalie
        ------ About the song Gangsta's Paradise performed by Coolio

    It's really sad!!! He's talking about how his life is screwed-up... I love this song!!! How do people get caught up in these types of lives??? It's sad to think about...
    Tell me why are we so blind to see...
    That the ones we hurt are you and me...
