ElPatron970
A Raw Message of Street Credibility and Rivalry
ElPatron970's song "Letter To My Son's" is a gritty and confrontational track that delves into themes of street credibility, rivalry, and authenticity. The lyrics are a direct address to an unnamed rival, whom ElPatron970 accuses of fabricating a gangster persona. The song opens with a vivid metaphor, comparing the rival's potential downfall to a dance, suggesting that their bravado is merely a performance. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, where ElPatron970 systematically dismantles the rival's claims of being a 'driller' or 'killer,' terms often associated with street violence and toughness.
Throughout the song, ElPatron970 emphasizes his own authenticity and street credentials. He positions himself as the 'local drug dealer,' a role that, in the context of the song, signifies realness and authority in the streets. This is contrasted with the rival's perceived inauthenticity, as ElPatron970 points out that the rival has never truly experienced the hardships or dangers of street life. The repeated assertion that the rival is not a 'driller' or 'killer' serves to underscore this point, reinforcing ElPatron970's dominance and credibility.

The lyrics are laced with insults and personal attacks, making it clear that this is not just a general commentary on street life but a pointed message to a specific individual. The raw and unfiltered language used throughout the song adds to its authenticity, making it a powerful statement of ElPatron970's place in the street hierarchy.
