No matter how you spin it, the core of Gangsta’s paradise success is not coming from what Coolio added, other than taking something good in a less “fresh” genre and bringing it into the cool (heh) teen friendly gangsta-rap scene.

You’re sounding extremely ignorant about music and also older than steam 😄
The thing that “made all the difference” is not a particolarly impressive feat.
If you think for a moment that Coolio AKA everybody-only-knows-him-for-that-song is even remotedly in the same ballpark of Steve Wonder you are out of your mind.
I obviously meant steam power, not the game store that’s much newer than the song you’re acting old about 🙄
