So Cuban Linx, It Was Written or Doe or Die aint classics?
Gangsta rap is drinking 40s and riding out..Or robbing nikkas on some war out shyt
Mafioso rap is discussing a nikka's fate over fettuccine Alfredo and wine...
And setting up racketeering rings while having your soldiers on standby for the hit to take over a spot...
Its just being smooth with shyt
I understand that....
I don't look up to them at all...but their come up and organization is to be respected...
I think Jayz said he prayed to gotti...lol
So it varies from rapper to rapper...
great description.surely the mafioso influence comes from all the classic mob flicks like goodfellas, casino, godfather, scarface etc.

Just as c00nish as it is seeing rappers promote for free high end clothing brands owned by racist cacs who dont even want them wearing their shyt
Did I say they weren't classics?
I just said I prefer the darker, grimey hip hop over the mafioso rap unless its Kool G Rap....those three albums are classic, yes, but I wouldn't pick them over the ones I listed...that fantasy mafioso shyt got played out quick with the Firm and others...I know the history of the italian mafia families and they are some racist fukks

Pass me the rock nikka
Y'all nikkas really got to stop with the whole "c00ning" shyt 
Lets not act like only Italian mobsters were being mentioned, you had reference to Scarface characters, references to black dealers like Nicky Barnes, Frank Lucas, Bumpy Johnson, Alpo, Rich Porter, Azie Faison, Supreme Team, etc.
All of the mafioso albums are classics to me

Rap been c00ning since the early 90s, IMO. Just that some people assume that it's in the past and the musical quality is high, means that the message can get a pass, regardless how destructive it is. From being blood/crips in the NWA days, to the mafioso era style raps of the mid 90s, to the materialistic party rapper with the ill flow in 97, to the super thug gimmick of the late 90s and early 00s, to the southern trap c00n phase, nikkas BEEN wilding out and re-enforcing every negative behavior in the book. But that is somehow "real Hip Hop" when ignorance is packaged in it

And hold down forts

Get your dome torched
G Rap and DJ Shadow leave your bone squashed
Squeeze the chrome short

We judge and jury in the home court
Give you the clown corpse dead on the sidewalk
Surrounded by mad pedefors
Your whole frame laid in the white chalk
You got the smoking section
First-class tickets to resurrection
Forever destined to a place where N.....s never restin'
Headed in Hell's direction
Lost at the crossroads and intersection
Should've wore a vest for chest protection
Slug fill you to capacity
Someone at the dance
Someone with the hand velocity of Butch Cassidy

Got yourself caught in a motherfukkin' tragedy
