My Mind Playing Tricks On Me
The Geto Boys is the self-titled album of the Geto Boys, released in 1990. The album contained 10 revamped or lifted tracks from their previous albums Grip It! On That Other   more...Level and Making Trouble, as well as three new songs. The cover of the album resembles the Beatles album Let It Be but takes a more ghetto approach. The original Def American pressing is the only WEA-distributed album with the following warning in addition to the standard explicit-lyrics sticker: "Def American Recordings is opposed to censorship. Our manufacturer and distributor, however, do not condone or endorse the content of this recording, which they find violent, sexist, racist, and indecent."

Subsequent pressings have an alternate version of “Gangster of Love” that uses a sample from Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Sweet Home Alabama” instead of the Steve Miller Band’s “The Joker.”
Though the controversial subject matter of gangsta hip-hop wasn't much of a barrier to popular success during the 1990s, the Geto Boys' recordings proved almost too extreme for widespread exposure. Blocked from distributing its 1990 major-label debut through Geffen—which insisted that a track dealing with necrophilia as well as murder was a step too far—the group was saved by producer Rick Rubin, who arranged another distributor for the album, which led to a new distribution deal for his Def American label. The controversy, which occurred two years earlier than similar censorship incidents involving Ice-T and the 2 Live Crew, gave the Geto Boys a large amount of publicity. Its follow-up, We Can't Be Stopped, eventually hit platinum-level certification by the RIAA, although the trio of Scarface, Willie D., and Bushwick Bill began to fracture by 1993. After releasing solo albums during the mid-1990s, the Geto Boys reunited in 1996 for its most praised album yet, The Resurrection.

When the Geto Boys came together in 1986, though, it was with a completely different lineup. Formed as the Ghetto Boys in Houston by hip-hop entrepreneur James "Li'l J" Smith (and signed to his Rap-A-Lot label), the group originally consisted of Prince Johnny C., the Slim Jukebox, and DJ Reddy Red. During 1987–1988, both Johnny C. and the Jukebox quit, forcing Smith to add a midget dancer-turned-emcee named Bushwick Bill (born Richard Shaw, in Jamaica) and two Rap-A-Lot solo acts: Ackshen (aka Scarface born Brad Jordan, born in Houston) and Willie D (William Dennis, born in Houston).

After the Geto Boys' Grip It! On That Other Level caught the ear of hip-hop impresario Rick Rubin (LL Cool J, Beastie Boys), Rubin re-mixed and re-recorded tracks from the album. He was ready to release it on his Def American label in 1990 through his distribution deal with Geffen Records, which balked at "Mind of a Lunatic," a track that described necrophilia with a murder victim. By late 1990, Rubin had found another distributor, Warner Bros. Records, and the album was released—as The Geto Boys—that same year.

The Geto Boys' association with controversy was far from over, though: hip-hop groups were a hot topic for moral-minded politicians during the early 1990s, and several leaders used the Geto Boys as an example to decry the state of modern pop-oriented music. The fires were fanned in 1991 with the release of the group's third proper LP, We Can't Be Stopped. Before the release of the album, Bushwick Bill had lost an eye in a shooting incident with his girlfriend, and the cover featured Willie D. and Scarface wheeling Bushwick Bill into an emergency room, with a prominent shot of the damaged eye. Inside the album, proceedings were among the most extreme in the history of American recorded music. Obviously, radio airplay was non-existent, but We Can't Be Stopped was still certified platinum by the RIAA in early 1992—thanks to the underground hit "Mind Playing Tricks on Me," one of the most effective inner-city vignettes in hip-hop history.

By 1993, all three members had begun solo ca  less
