1) Ron Raphael Braunstein (born June 7, 1976), better known by his stage-name Necro, is an American rapper from Brooklyn. He is the owner of Psycho+Logical-Records founded November 1999. He is the younger brother of rapper Ill Bill.
Necro was born in Brooklyn, New York and grew up in the Glenwood Houses, where he lived for eight years from about 6 years old to age 14, when he moved to Canarsie. Born into a Jewish family, he is the son of Israeli expatriates, with ancestry from Israel and Romania. Necro's father was a Romanian-born Israeli soldier and his mother an Orthodox baal teshuva.
He began his musical career at 11, playing in a death metal band named Injustice. He made a transition from heavy metal to hip hop. In 1988, he started rapping after being influenced by his older brother, rapper Ill Bill. Necro derived his stage-name from the Slayer song "Necrophiliac". Before that he called himself "Mad Mooney", which was a character from a Clive Barker book. He made his first demo in about 1990 and won a demo battle contest on the Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito show on WKCR-FM. In about 1993 Necro started rapping full-time and made a demo called "Do The Charles Manson". In 1995 he proceeded to rap on the Wildman Steve and DJ Riz show WBAU 90.3FM.
Necro plays a hip-hop subgenre called horrorcore. He has played rap metal and has combined rap with death metal music. Necro refers to his music as "death rap" to describe his style of ultraviolent hip hop and to distinguish himself from other genre labels created by the media. His music combines death metal beats with explicit raps about violence, death, the occult, drugs and sex.
Necro is known for releasing conceptual songs. Songs have tackled topics like the Manson murders: "Creepy Crawl" "Cockroaches", "Scalpel", "The 12 King Pimp Commandments", "Dead Body Disposal", "The Human Traffic King", "White Slavery" "I Need Drugs", "Food For Thought", "S.T.D.", picking up women ("86 Measures of Game"), cannibalism ("Human Consumption"), suicide ("You Did It"), bondage and sex games ("EdgePlay"), watersports and micturition ("Piss"), life as a pimp ("Out the Pocket"), a revenge tale ("Some Get Back (Revenge)"), and war narratives ("First Blood").
Necro is a devoted fan of the 1983 film Scarface. Necro sampled the main character from Scarface, Tony Montana, in "Cockroaches". Necro has also rapped, "I live scarface scenes" in "Gory Days", and rapped Montana's infamous quote, "you fuck with me you fucking with the best", whilst sampling the quote simultaneously in "asBESTos". Necro also took the title from "Push It to the Limit" which appeared in the film's soundtrack and used the title for his own song "Push it to the Limit". Al Pacino's work besides Scarface plays a recurrent theme throughout Necro's work. Necro's new collaboration with Kool G Rap is called The Godfathers as is the movie The Godfather that made a star of Al Pacino. In "asBESTos", Necro raps, "I'm completely rehabilitated, reinvigorated, reassimilated" which is taken directly from an Al Pacino quote in Carlito's Way.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
My deluxe bullets lift you fucks up like a pull-up
Carve you with a Phillip schmuck, Gemstar your grill up
I'm not a law-abiding citizen, I'm a rider I get it in
I'll get acquitted fast after I smash your fitted in
I almost got trapped in jail cause you're a turncoat tattletale
Battle snake rat, your legal battle failed
Provoke me and I'll smoke you with the tools, choke you with your jewels
Like a molar rips through, my whole crew flips you
Money you try to son me and I'll solar eclipse you
Fuck you up like a polar shift, steal your skins
Hardcore pimp, hat with the brim, Fillmore Slim
You're too stupid to work a gun son, it exploded
'Cause you're the type to clean a gun out while it's loaded
I capitalize slapping you guys, you could be the best rapper
I'm the best clapper alive
My life depends upon my gun and my gun spells hope in the land where the rope and the Colt are king
Thugcore cowboy, somebody gets beat
Somebody fucked up boy
I'll catch you for duffing the street, yeah I'll do that
Beef handling myself, true that
My life depends upon my gun and my gun spells hope in the land where the rope and the Colt are king
You'll never be victorious, you'll forever lose
You're the sorriest excuse of a warrior the hood's ever produced
I'm vain glorious, I remain the goriest
Pop a tourist with a Taurus, the slug tore through the chest
Ghetto like a dollar cab, catch you solitaire
Grab you by your collar, holler scared wallow down the stairs
Trying to vic me shorty? You think you slick? I'm WD-40
Slicker than the oil of a Saudi
You're still breastfed in your nest, your father molests you
Test-tube baby, you look like your mother dressed you
Backslap you, bitch-smack you, cop pleas, screaming, "Stop please!"
Baseball bat pop knees
I'm the shiznit while you got bad kismet
You do bad business, your future's cataclysmic
Shoot you with the gat quick, orbit my fat prick
Like the satellite Sputnik'll suck a dick
My life depends upon my gun and my gun spells hope in the land where the rope and the Colt are king
Thugcore cowboy, somebody gets beat
Somebody fucked up boy
I'll catch you for duffing the street, yeah I'll do that
Beef handling myself, true that
My life depends upon my gun and my gun spells hope in the land where the rope and the Colt are king
In the song "Thugcore Cowboy" by Necro, the lyrics convey a raw and intense perspective on survival and power in a violent environment. The line "My life depends upon my gun and my gun spells hope in the land where the rope and the Colt are king" symbolizes the desperation and reliance on firearms for protection in a world ruled by violence. The "rope" represents the hangman's noose, symbolizing the constant threat of death, while the "Colt" refers to the iconic Colt revolver, a symbol of power and control.
Throughout the song, Necro showcases his aggressive and ruthless nature. He boasts about his skills and fearlessness, comparing himself to a "thugcore cowboy" who beats and punishes those who cross him. The lyrics are filled with vivid descriptions of violence, such as carving someone's face with a knife and choking them with their own jewelry. Necro also expresses disdain for those who betray or testify against him, asserting his dominance in the criminal underworld.
The song captures the dark and gritty realities of living in a world where survival depends on strength, cunning, and the willingness to resort to brutality. It portrays a character who has embraced violence as a means to protect himself and gain power in a hostile environment.
