Before hearing this I thought Ben Folds was the very antithesis of gangster, but a few years after graduating college I’ve finally learned the lesson my Liberal Studies 1 professor was trying to drill that whole semester, all is truly one.

This is the one of the most beautiful renditions of what is probably the hardest love song ever made, enjoy.

ripped off Dynamite Hack's "boyz in da hood"
Yes, it was released when my grandmother was a teenager – 2005.
It's not a ripp off of Dynamite Hack, it's a similar concept, which in my opinion Ben Fold executed it a lot better.
Didn't pick up the sarcasm either I see ; )
