Background notes

Archive material and source history

Gangsta Pat, born Patrick Moore, came up in Memphis in the late 1980s. His music had a raw, haunted quality that fit the city's underground rap scene at the time. Songs like 'Smokin With the Devil' and 'G's Ain't Supposed to Cry' sketched out street life with a direct, unvarnished tone that connected with listeners who recognized the landscape.

He put out albums like 'Face Off' in 1997 and 'Gettin' Money, Stayin' True' the following year. The work drew some criticism for its subject matter, but Pat maintained he was reflecting realities, not glorifying them. Tracks such as 'Gangsta Party' and 'Pat is Back' kept his voice in the mix through the late '90s.

He occasionally worked with other Memphis figures like DJ Paul and Lord Infamous, but Gangsta Pat was essentially a solo act. His recordings have stayed in circulation among fans of that era's Southern rap, a no-frills document of a particular time and place.
