Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song La Familia by Cormega, Nas, and Foxy Brown showcase the reality of a life involved in organized crime, drug dealing, and other illegal activities. The song is an ode to their respective criminal organizations or "families" and the loyalty, trust, and brotherhood they share. The song highlights the hypocrisy of those who pretend to be their friends but plan to set them up for their own gain. The artists also talk about the harsh reality of life in their world, where the police are always after them, and betrayal is the norm. The artists show no remorse for their actions and are ready to die for their fellow members, even if it means going to jail for them. The song, therefore, becomes a commentary on the socioeconomic conditions that push young men towards crime and the consequences that follow.

One of the most epic songs of all time. "Then my voice disappeared off La Familia, then it appeared there wasn't no real love" -Cormega Love in Love Out

My man mega kills this shit son. One love to Nas & AZ

Mubanga Moonze

These four are legendary and made a good rap group.

Sammy sess

So raw...mega’s poetic, the way he set it, delivers on da mic, it’s energetic

gangstarr17gg

I hate that Dr Dre always downplays this album as merely a flop . Commercially maybe but this is album is a hip hop classic off the talent involved alone .

iLL MANORS

Werd - i still play this album

Kahleef El-Amin

Your absolutely right An sold 3 million copies

JM NYC

It has some joints but it was always lackluster considering the talent involved. This track and everything else that led to the album like Affirmative Action OG and remix rightly had people think we'd get a cohesive 5 mic classic. Instead it felt like a cluttered compilation and was so out of focus with the original vision that this cut didn't even make the album.

gangstarr17gg yes sir

Bob Fole

Nah
