I remember watching on VH-1 behind the music that Coolio got pissed off at Weird Al for making a parody of Gangsta's Paradise without his permission. Oh irony of ironies. Coolio completely ripped the song off of Stevie Wonder. The music is THE SAME with some extra bass and a slightly different beat people. The chorus is almost exactly the same, with one word changed. Not like in some songs where parts of only the chorus are similar (think "Ghetto superstar" and "Islands in the sand") but a different style or musical rendition. If you did something like that in college you'd be kicked out forever. Hahaha.

I like his version much better. I'd never heard this before
