Mean Cruising II : The style

A followup to my last post, on Mean cruising music. Mean cruising cannot be done without:
1) Appropriate Car/Swagga
2) Appropriate Sound System.
3) Appropriate Music.

Music was covered in the last post, as for Sound system, you'll manage:P. Only uncovered point is the Car part. When people are cruising, Everyone in the car must be comfortable, and feel like a boss, sitting in whatever seat they're in. If its a 4 door car, its preffered to have only 3 or 4 passengers. 3 means the driver, the passenger, and the boss sitting in the back. I prefer the back seat, being driven around, staring out the window, with your hand on your chin, like a 1970's dictator. 'Tis pimpin. SUV's are the best and most common vehicles for Mean Cruising, prefferably with tinted rear windows, adds to the image. Top vehicles for Mean cruising are as follows:

1) Chevy Tahoe / Cadillac Escalade (Tie) - In Black, with blacked out windows, blacked out rims, just like the one on my last post:

2) Rolls Royce Phantom/Drophead Coupe:
3) Pre-1985 Honda CRX (Very effective with +4 guys cramped up in it, with music banging, and smoke coming out the windows):
4) Pre-1965 Old school Chevy Impala/Cadillac Eldorado (More effective with Hyrdraulics, gold 100 spoke rims, and some girls in the back):
 5) 2010 Maybach Zeppelin - (Most effective on this list, with tinted windows, shades, fresh suit, etc... - perfect image)

I personally prefer number 1 and 5, the PERFECT cars for me, and more importantly,cruising.

Mean Cruising

Cruising is one of my favourite hobbies*. The music, The car, The image, Its the bomb. I dont like 'flashy cruising' as its sometimes called. Its the act of getting massive chrome rims, and other fake chromed parts for your car (window frames, grills, etc..). Thats not my style, i prefer 'mean cruising'. Basically, its when you have a car like this:
 The idea is, have everything looking mean. Black grille, black tints, black rims, black colour, black everything. If i saw a car like that pull up outside my house, I'd be afraid. VERY afraid. The next ingredient is the music. You can't cruise in a car like that, listenin to Ke$ha or something, you'd get shot. I've taken the liberty to make a list of my favourite Mean cruisin' tunes. Songs in bold are ones guaranteed to make people freak out when they see you (And as F.J.Bliss requested, alongside each song, ill post the youtube link).

Mean songs are songs which you cruise to, with a 'don't make me get out this car and shoot you' face, songs intended on scaring people.

Gangsta songs are songs where you just play your music, windows down, rap along, and just having a bomb ass time bouncin' to tha beat.

1. Red Nose - Tech N9ne [link]
2. Go Getta (Remix) - Young Jeezy Ft. R-Kelly, Jadakiss & Bun B [link]
3. War Tune - A-ZIZ/33/Y.T. [link]
4. Can't Be Touched - Roy Jones Jr. [link]
[WARNING: if you're pissed off, this song will only wanna make you get outta your car and murder someone, it's a provocative song. You've been warned]
5. Demons - Tech N9ne [link] (or this rather interesting demonstration by SMD )
6. Playa - Snoop Dogg [link]
7. Party Up In Here - DMX [link] (It's hilarious watching 10 guys in a Tahoe bouncing to this song:P)
8. Get Back - Ludacris [link]
9. Street Money - Rick Ross Ft. Flo Rida [link] (In my opinion, the ultimate non-scary cruising song)
10. Mafia Music - Rick Ross [link]
11. M.O.B. - Birdman Ft. Lil Wayne [link] (Slowest, but very effective)

NB: These songs will not sound any good on crappy car speakers, Bass/Subwoofers is an essential for the full Cruising experince. Advice on cars appropriate for crusing will come in tomorrow's post.
