  • Comments: Even though this is only my third vid, this is the toughest project that I had ever attempted. There's quite a bit of word painting in this one, but it might be a bit too fast to keep up because of the quick lyrics that Tupac spits in this song. My sourse is the last two episodes of Cowboy Bebop and little clips from the Bebop Movie. So, yes there are quite a bit of spoilers in the vid, but I don't think they gave away the story of the series.

    Holla At Me is basically an angry attack/revenge song, so that was the tone I was aiming for. It starts out centered on Vicious in the first verse, then on Spike on the second verse. In the third verse, I showed a little hints of Spike's past. If you know this song, then you might have realised that I shortened the song a bit. It was just a bit of the ending vocals that I cut out though and the main body is still in tact.

    Also I titled this vid Contention because it showcases Spikes rivalry with Vicious and his crew. And another thing... white flashes = flashbacks/memory cut. I used this method in the One and Only vid as well. So if you got confused why there's white flashes, its just the characters remembering something that got them into that situation. Feedback, whether it is praise or constructive criticism, is always appreciated.


    Here are the lyrics if you want to follow along, enjoy!:

    ni**as out there jelous cuz we be bailin' with Death Row
    They try to playa hate
    But they can't fade us tho'
    We be mobbin' through tha neigborhood
    Yeah
    With that funky sound *so funky*
    We be throwin' down

    This goes out to you playa
    You know...you know who you are

    Gotta be carefull, can't let tha evil of tha money trap me
    So when ya see me ni**a
    Ya better Holla at me

    Are you confused
    You wonder how it feels to walk a mile inside tha shoes
    Of a ni**a who don't have a thing to loose
    When me and you was homies
    No one informed me it was all a scheme
    You infiltrated my team and sold a ni**as dreams
    How could you do me like that ?
    I took ya family in
    I put some cash in ya pocket
    Made you a man again
    And now you let tha fear put your a*s in a place
    Complicated to escape
    It's a fools fate
    Without your word
    Your a shell of a man
    I lost respect for you ni**a
    We can never be friends
    I know i'm runnin' through your head now
    What could you do ?
    If it was up to you
    I'd be dead now
    I let tha world know ni**a you a coward
    You could never be live
    Until you die
    See tha mothaf**ken bi**h in your eye
    Type of ni**a, that let tha evil of tha money trap me
    When ya see me ni**a
    Ya better holla at me (holla at me)
    Can't let tha evil of tha money trap me
    So when ya see me ni**a
    Ya better Holla at me

    You better beware where you lay
    We better not find where you stay

    So I gotta be carefull, can't let tha evil of tha money trap me
    So when ya see me ni**a
    Ya better holla at me

    You better beware where you lay
    We better not find where you stay

    Courious
    Spittin' lyrics
    On tha verge of furious
    I'm addicted to currency
    ni**a that's why we're doin this
    I got shot up, I surprised tha ni**as tha way I got up
    And then
    I hit the studio
    It's time to blow tha block up
    No hesitation
    This information got you contemplatin'
    Heartbreakin' and eliminatin' with this conversation
    Break him
    And let him see tha face of a mental patient
    It's a celebration
    Of my criminal elevation
    With the participation
    I want members across tha fifty states
    To keep tha nation anticipatin' until we break
    Will I be great, is it my fate ?
    To live tha life of luxury
    Some ni**as bought my tapes
    So much jelousy it scares me
    So be prepared
    Cause only tha strong survive
    Life isn't fair (fair)
    Probably never knew tha way it feels to die
    So you figure f**k with me
    I give that a*s a try
    ni**a, Holla at me

    You better beware where you lay
    We better not find where you stay

    I shoulda saw tha signs
    I was blinded
    Criminal minds of a young black brotha doin' time
    So many brothas framed in this dirty game
    It's a shame
    So much pressure on my brain
    While she blame me
    Secrets in tha dark
    Only her and I know
    Now i'm sitten' in tha state pen
    Doin time for slow
    Guess she made a bad decision
    That got me livin'
    Just like an animal
    I'm caged up in state prison
    My ni**as dissin'
    Cause
    Hell have no fury like a woman scorn
    A cemetary full of mothaf**kers got not knowin'
    Picture my prophecy
    Tha cops are attacking me, on top of me
    I'm runnin' from tha coppers
    But never let'em stop me
    Cause i'm a soulja
    Hell, ever since I was a little ni**a havin' fantasies
    Of one day getting older
    ni**as is paranoid
    Trust
    A no no
    Love is a mystery
    f**k tha po po,
    Holla at me.....
    So when you see me ni**a
    You better holla at me....

    You better beware where you lay
    We better not find where you stay

    ni**as out there jelous cuz we be bailin' with Death Row
    They try to playa hate
    but they can't fade us tho'
    We be mobbin' through tha neigborhood
    Yeah
    with that funky sound (so funky)
    we be throwin' down

    You better beware where you lay
    We better not find where you stay
