Met Bo once in The Town on 96th & Sunnyside back in the late 90’s. He performed with the Mob Figaz. They had just dropped that first album. Lil Al the Gamer freestyled for them before they went on stage too. The function was called, “The Bay Area Picnic”
Not only did he do that for his self (meaning giving his tapes out for free) he also did that for his artist. His promo team would stand in the door ways of parties when their letting out and hand everyone who walked out the party a tape. That's how I got my first Marvaless tape " Just Marvaless" . Been a fan every since. True story
When the first song come on til my casket drop.... we be smashing blasting for the loot I empty my strap then I dash to my coup... I stopped the CD bought me a copy plus my auntie and my cousin cuz I didn't want them trying to borrow mine
I was walking and somebody picked me up to give me a ride. I was in 9th grade. I heard the track with e40 and spice 1 back to back. Then I heard money by the ton and that was the one! I asked that kid what tape he was listening to. He took the tape out and it was til my casket drop. I went and bought the cd the next weekend when I had enough money.
Man I’m saying !! Bo is what I bumped straight up back then !! New most songs by heart !! Ghetto flight was crazy ! “ after a 5 min. Shootout still had a loaded strap ! Damn n they supposed to be hardcore bang as- n I got only Empty cocked back chamber !!
“Gas Chamber” is a classic. That shit just has a lot of crazy stories with it that lead to other great music in the bay. Like “4 Deep” video getting shot up and Q Ball getting killed so Brotha Lynch Hung made “Liquor Sicc” or like “Realer Than Real” was about “Tired of Gettin Stepped On” video shoot getting shot up (now thinking about it, if Bo at a video shoot, it’s getting shot up) and if you go back and look at the vid, you see C Bo there young asf.
CBo did Riding on my Bumper about the Q-Ball video shootin. Lynch did Liquor Sicc, Gangsta Dre spoke on it with Funk Central Haters dissing them. I think Mr Doc also got a song about it. At least 3 songs about the Q-Ball shooting. Dude was a real OG Garden Blocc Crip
As a Cincinnati native & a huge fan of Bo since gas chamber I remember the first time I heard dude at a hz party & I'm like wtf is that! My homie say this new dude out of Sac twn. The nxt day I go to the record store & buy everything he had out at the time(this is '94) and when I tell u his cd was always in my deck .. boi! Anytime i was ridin & pulled up at ANY spot it was him or Pac i was playin & heads always turned. Man Bo I was bald headed back then AND jst happened to have a cutlass '87 brougham to be exact, so when I heard bald head nut fish tailin in the cut I went crazy 😆 I still play your music till this day & lil niggas be i remember my uncle use to play that! 😆 u a legend my G & much respect.
