“Put Yo Hood Up” – “I need all my real niggas and bitches to look around the muthafuckin’ club/If you see a nigga and he throwin’ up a set and it aint your set Or it aint your click/I want y’all niggas to tell them niggas like dis/I want you to get up in that muthafucka’ face and do this shit/Say nigga fuck you cause you don’t wanna fuck with me”
Those are the lyrics from the songs chorus and police said it was those words that have incited several shootings. Police in Kansas have urged local clubs to cease playing the song as it started a fight at the El Tequila club which led to 5 people being shot.
Similar results were found in Arkansas when a 17 year old killed a 16 year old after gang signs were tossed up while this song was being played. I’m sure Lil’ Jon is thrilled to know his socially responsible lyrics are having such a positive affect on the youth.
