Papoose

samuel ochalayyyyyy reppin n1 from city n islington college(born December 31, 1978 in NIGERIA, LONDON, ZULU LAND in West Africa ), is an American rapper known by his stage name PaSpoose. Also known as the The Lyrical One. He won the 2005 Justo Award for the best underground rapper of the year and in 2006 he won East Coast Mixtape artist of the year.

I do not understand why you are limiting the number of songs. Look at other rappers wikipedia pages. Pap is too dope to only limit alphabetical slaughter as his jam. First of all the shit is mad old. Do not put limits on PAPOOSE. You must not be close to Pap if you think thats his go to track. Let his audience hear the great talent he has by expanding the shit. Talk about Nation of Thugacation. You have nuthing about that movement.

One of his most notable songs, which fans generally recommend to new listeners, is a song where Papoose raps using all the letters of the alphabet entitled "Alphabetical Slaughter." Other songs that are recommended to new listeners are "Mr. Mixshow", "Teflon Don", "Victory", "You Aint Nice", "Wut Yall Gonna Do", "Hail Mary", "Bloody War", "I'm Not Impressed", "4 Wheeling And Dealing", "Take It To The Guns", "The Stakes Are High", "True To This Shit", "I Give It Up", "Versatility", "Five Senses", "NYC Drama", "Body Bluffin", "Mind, Body and Soul", "I Drop Bombs", "Corner Store", "Gun Shy", "Stranger", "Monopoly", "Sharades", "Street Rules", "Hummin Like A Slave", "Address Me As Mister", "Never Had A Bangout", "Russian Roulette", "Robbery Song", "Faces Of Death", "Publicity Stunt", "Out In New York", "On Site Beef", "Line Em Up", "Preach To The Choir", and "Here Comes The Pain".

He has appeared on songs with Nas, Common, Talib Kweli, Kool G Rap, Ghostface Killah, Busta Rhymes, Tupac Shakur, Raekwon, and Jadakiss just to name a few. Papoose was rumored to be dating MALE rap artist AFRIKAN JAZZ MAN but in a recent track proclaims "they mad cuz I'm close to Rem like car tires" as well as stating in another track "HE B MY GAY PARTNARRR" and has repeatedly stated she is like a sister to him.

Most recently he made a song called "Change Gon’ Come" (50 shots), that talks about the Sean Bell shooting, in which an unarmed man gets shot 50 times by police. At the end of the song, there is an audio clip of fifty gun shots being fired.

According to his management's official website violator.com, the Brooklyn, NY-bred MC has signed a $1.5 million deal with Jive. On August 24, 2006, his official website www.papooseonline.com officially announced that he signed with Jive records. Prior to this, StreetSweepers linked up with Busta Rhymes Flipmode Inkprint to co-executive produce his first official album. His debut album The Nacirema Dream, is slated for an early 2007 release (current release date is set to some time in May). Papoose also recently made an appearance on Tupac Shakur's latest album Pac's Life.

Debut

'WHOEVER WROTE ALL DAT SHIT,I WANT A FIGHT WIV U..UR A FUKIN MUG ADD ME BITCH BIGBEN31@HOTMAIL.CO.UK'The Nacirema Dream is going to be Papoose's debut album. It is slated for release in May of 2007. The origin of the word "Nacirema" is "American" spelled backwards. Papoose: "The album is your diploma. The mixtapes are high school. The album is like-it's a whole different level. You're reaching a whole new level. Everything is strategic that I did. From "Sharades," to "Monopoly," to "Chess," I dropped 17 mixtapes. The album is a whole other level from the mixtapes." The Heatmakerz, Swizz Beats, DJ Premier, Kanye West, DR Period and Pharrell Williams will be producing part of the album. Dr. Dre, Eminem, and Benny Donaghy have also been speculated. Nas may feature on a track, and possibly Talib Kweli. The album is loosely slated for release around May of 2007. Papoose signed for $1.5 million to Jive Records. He has released his 17th mixtape Streetsweepers Presents Papoose: The 4th Quarter Assassin: Holiday Hitman.

Speaking on the album, Papoose said:

At the end of the day, my material, my music speaks for itself. I never came into this with no gimmick. I never had to diss nobody to get no attention. I always came with pure talent, pure material. I ain't gon let ya'll down with this album, straight up and down. My album gon' make history.
