From Little Psycho to Big Syke, the name represents the graduation of each grade from the school of the streets. Born and raised in Inglewood, California, Big Syke comes from where hip-hop was born; the spot where the mind is challenged against circumstances, “You gotta be crazy to survive in the jungle”. Drugs, sex, and violence lured him and many of his comrades into destruction until Syke decided to turn to the solace of music. Big Syke starts telling his story with ‘Evil Mind Gangstas’. EMG was not a rap group or a crew per se; rather a collection of like-minded individuals who hung out together, supported each other, and just happened to record their history by making rap songs. Using his hustling skills, Syke sold thousands of EMG’s first album, “All Hell Breakin’ Loose”, which became the soundtrack to the lives of so many inner-city youth. The hard work put toward EMG built up his street credibility and led him into new musical relationships. In 1991, Big Syke met Tupac Shakur and they quickly became, ‘Closest Road Dog’’s, (Tupac Shakur, Until The End Of Time). This relationship marked another grade of street graduation, as Big Syke also became Mussolini – the first of Tupac’s OUTLAWs. The two made lots of songs together, starting with, ‘T.H.U.G. L.I.F.E.’, which is one of many songs that was never released in its original form. Big Syke was also featured on, ‘How Long Will They Mourn Me’ and ‘Cradle To The Grave’ from the ‘THUG LIFE’ album that ultimately reached platinum status. Being a part of THUG LIFE meant more than just making music. THUG LIFE is an acronym that stands for The Hate U Gave Lil’ Infants Fucks Everybody. It is a consciousness, a movement, and a way of thinking that encourages the disadvantaged in society to rise above the challenges faced in the streets. Like EMG, Big Syke found another family of like-minded individuals who bonded for the purpose of prosperity. Tupac featured Big Syke more on his songs than any other artist, which is a testament to their brotherhood. From Tupac’s ‘All Eyez On Me’ album, Syke was featured on ‘All Eyez On Me’, ‘Picture Me Rollin’’, and ‘Check Out Time’. On October 16, 1996, Big Syke released his first solo album, ‘Be Yoself’ from his own label ‘Rideonum Records’. The album was well received by music critics and fans alike, and made way for more opportunities. Syke worked with artists like Ol’ Dirty Bastard, Spice 1, Nate Dogg, and more, making cameo appearances on their albums. Syke did sign on with Rap-A-Lot Records, but decided to continue to move independently before the release of his second solo album, ‘Big Syke’. As well as making music, Syke is pursuing other avenues of the entertainment industry. Dabbling in film, with the writing of a movie script, and fashion, with the imminent launch of his female lounge gear. The near future will realize the fruits of Sykes hard work, just like music has so far. A hustler at heart and a Souljah to the end, Big Syke rises above adversity and is still moving forward. bigsyke@outlook.com

Ain't No Love
Big Syke Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Syke talking]
Ain't been no love around here for a long time
When the love gon' come back
Huh, I don't know, I don't know
But till then, keep doing it like I do it

[Verse 1: Big Syke]
From the first day of birth it was like we was cursed,
For our destiny to ride away in a hearse
Unseen tomorrows so many hearts are hollow
Can't help 'em they'll put me down if I let 'em
I'm givin' fifty feet to the average friend or foe
And I'll kill you fo' you kill me if you don't know
Cause sometimes God put you in the path to kill
But not if your intentions are to hurt or steal
Constantly surrounded by despisers that's intoxicated
Cause all of us are gang related,
Later years fully gettin' there
What do we have here?
One day every family shall shed a tear,
I'm lost I can't find myself, I listen but don't learn
What's the call for help will God let me burn
So I'm takin' everyday like I'm livin' my last,
What's the aftermath all I know, is ain't no love

[Chorus: G-Money]
Love don't love nobody
And love don't love no one
I said love don't love nobody
And love don't love no one
It ain't no love, it ain't no love

[Verse 2: Mopreme]
It ain't no love fuck the love
See I'ma thug wit mad slugs
And trippin' off these hoes up under my rug
Blind and I can't see sometimes

This Remy Martin got me high
Givin' my shit a try,
My people doubt me why
Hey, I'm way too fly
Thinkin' everybody down wid me until I die
Just like in a nightmare
Straight to fuck from nowhere
Nine's in yo back like you ain't seen jack
Now sticky situations make a motherfucka feel
Like going straight to hell cause at least hell is real
I'm holdin' shit down like a motherfuckin' vet
I'm a real nigga doin' real things, and that you can bet...

[Chorus]

[Verse 3: Big Syke]
They say reach in your heart and you will find yo mind
Everyday in the streets got my foresight blind
My aftertime is narrow peepin' down the barrel of a four
Just a nigga or a killa I don't know so
Who makes the call will I fall a victim like the rest
Slug in the chest one in the dome and make sure I'm gone
Send me home all alone in these cold streets
The desperation constantly drinkin' and I can't sleep
Neck deep strugglin' tryin' to survive
Some want to die I want to stay alive
Eyes on the prize let me modify this whole region
I declare this sucka duckin' season, gimme the reason
Why I should change into a softy,
After livin' so lofty
It cost me my soul outta control in a devil's world
Me my niggas and my girl,
It ain't no love





[Chorus til fade]

There is no love present


It ain't no love fuck the love
There is no love, I don't care about it


See I'ma thug wit mad slugs

And trippin' off these hoes up under my rug
I am annoyed with these women who are beneath me


Blind and I can't see sometimes
I am blind and cannot see clearly


This Remy Martin got me high

Givin' my shit a try, My people doubt me why
I am trying but my people do not believe in me, why?


Hey, I'm way too fly
Hey, I am too good for all of this


Thinkin' everybody down wid me until I die
Thinking that everyone will be with me until I die


Just like in a nightmare
It's like being in a terrible dream


Straight to fuck from nowhere
Sudden and unexpected chaos


Nine's in yo back like you ain't seen jack
A gun is pointed at your back like you have not noticed


Now sticky situations make a motherfucka feel
Tough situations make a person feel


Like going straight to hell cause at least hell is real
Like they are going straight to hell because at least that is real


I'm holdin' shit down like a motherfuckin' vet
I am controlling everything, like a veteran


I'm a real nigga doin' real things, and that you can bet...
I am a genuine person doing authentic things and that's for sure!


They say reach in your heart and you will find yo mind
They say if you search in your heart, you will find your mind


Everyday in the streets got my foresight blind
Every day in the streets blinds my ability to see the future clearly


My aftertime is narrow peeping down the barrel of a four
My future is limited to looking down the barrel of a gun


Just a nigga or a killa I don't know so
Am I just a person or a killer? I do not know


Who makes the call will I fall a victim like the rest
Who decides if I will become a victim like others?


Slug in the chest one in the dome and make sure I'm gone
A bullet in the chest and one in the head to make sure I am dead


Send me home all alone in these cold streets
Leave me alone in these cold streets


The desperation constantly drinkin' and I can't sleep
The desperation drives me to drink, and I cannot sleep


Neck deep strugglin' tryin' to survive
Deeply struggling to survive


Some want to die I want to stay alive
Some people want to die, I want to stay alive


Eyes on the prize let me modify this whole region
Focusing on my goal, let me change this entire area


I declare this sucka duckin' season, gimme the reason
I declare it's time for fools to run away, give me a reason


Why I should change into a softy, After livin' so lofty
Why should I change and become weak, after living so extravagantly


It cost me my soul outta control in a devil's world
Living in a world of the devil has cost me my soul and made me out of control


Me my niggas and my girl, It ain't no love
My friends, girlfriend, and I do not have any love.


Love don't love nobody
Love shows no favoritism


And love don't love no one
Love does not love anyone at all


It ain't no love, it ain't no love
There is no love at all
