[sugey1122]

so glad this popped up on my playlist this morning .. #theemmuzik ..

[psainterlude]

i swear you can listen to a jay song and when you hear the lyrics and how hes rhyming, it all is so amazing. but when you actually break it down verse by verse and line by line, it just gets even more amazing. especially his word play. then you think to yourself how someone can think of this off the top of their head. its genuis really. we love you hov!

[pray0yea]

[philD841]

to the kid "Nuk8" first off know that the hell your talking about before u let your hands get the typing..smh Jay was about that life and was getting it in. The reason why I know this because homie Im from kings county. I uses to see that GS ride up and down flushin. this was 95 before his LP came out. My step Pops is from Marcy building 354. He had Jay doing shows all in SC, VA and Maryland. Not riding dude "pause" but the big homie dont have to front....Food For Thought!!!

[annz3675]

"The allure of breaking the law, was always too much for me to ever ignore..". That's a real ass line for a lot of dudes....

[Ibi333]

yeah I miss this too.

"My women friends get tennis bracelets,

Trips to Venice get they Winters replaced with,

the sun it ain't even fun no more, I'm jaded

Man it's just a game I just play it to play it.

I put my feet in the footprints left for me

without saying a word, the ghetto's got a mental telepathy".

jheeze, Jigga kills it on this, the Neptunes production is slick and Jay does it perfectly over this track

[Ibi333]

[BrutusDA]

"Say hooray to the bad guy, and all the broads

puttin cars in they name for the stars of the game

Puttin 'caine in they bras and their tomorrows on the train

All in the name of love" Wow. . .We'll never see this Jay-Z ladies and gentlemen he's gone. I sure do miss him though. . .

[chance3473]

[drewgilchrist]

This beat is the crazyest shit ever

[ZeeToThe]

Rumor has it that Lupe wrote this song.

[kumngo21]

@ZeeToThe rumor has it your wrong Zee.. no one has ever ghostwritten for jay z do your homework

[RedBoiGoi]

@ZeeToThe get the fuck outta here... NOBODY writes for Jay-z point blank PERIOD

[jnrc1988]

@RedBoiGoi

you're naive.

[veezy124]

man its just tha game i just play it to play it......oh know

[bowdryanthony]

I have no problem admitting to be a Jay-z fan. I dont know any other artist that woulda did this song any justice. Pharrell did the damn thing with this song. Noother rapper would have laid a rap down tight enuf to go with that beat. As a whole i dont know what i love about this song most, the lyrics or the beat. I do know it has been on repeat in my car for several days.

[jelanimadman]

This is my first time hearing this and im in love with this song.

[maukyzia11]

put down the toast cuz i be doin the most OH NOOO!!!!

[WestsideCharleston]

I'll play this song when i get my first million.

[B1GC0P3]

Pharrell is a fucking genius.

[maukyzia11]

who ever said he aint this good anymore must not be able to analyze music, so sad

[CRider23Gamer]

I got a thing 4 those big body Benzes!! High off the life!!

Got 2 luv that!! Man they call me right back!!

[GRG313]

Lyrical genius! He's still good...but no where near this good anymore.

[W0lfHaley23]

This that song you listen to when you cruizing in a top down convertible on a Spring day

[Kash4monee]

Jigga at his best on this song. Smoke and meditate to this!

[oscaralonzo27]

AMAZING!

[456micman]

instant classic

[newnoo]

just listen the boy goes off.. the allure of the game keeps callin my name

[GForful]

[oc93lion]

This song shouldnt come with a dislike button

[jfarahyar]

jung 4 life

[justlik3wif3y]

[nene7884]

[MrCASH815]

Jay-Z is the epitome of jimmy the gent from goodfellas cool and smooth but a beast at any given moment

[ntg2627]

THIS IS WHAT DRIVES US THE LIFE!!!!!!!!!! IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER>>>>>>> #CLASSIC

[xCountScratch]

like a russian mobster drinking distilled vodka.

[croweziec]

This is one my favorite Jay Z songs. 5 stars

[OdariusMusic]

THUMBS UP IF YOU HIGH OFF LIFE !

*or* High, Period...

[Krifko]

@mrmillion94 So, what does it mean?

[RedBoiGoi]

@Krifko What do you mean what does it mean? Your deaf?

[Krifko]

@RedBoiGoi Judging by your command of the English language, you must come from 'the ghetto'

[RedBoiGoi]

@Krifko And you must be an "asshole".

[RedBoiGoi]

@Krifko I'm from the so called "ghetto", yet I fully understand this song and you don't. So I guess you're the dumbass.

[Krifko]

@RedBoiGoi Listen pall, since I am not from the ghetto, I asked the guy to explain it to me. All of a sudden you started to get rude. Instead of being an asshole, you could have explained it me. Anyway, good day.

[RedBoiGoi]

@Krifko Why do you have to be from the "ghetto" to understand this song? That's very ignorant. Google Jimmy Hoffa and James Dean for the last verse. The whole song is talking about how he doesn't need to be on drugs to feel the highest great feeling life has to offer. While everyone around him is giving up on life, selling drugs, living life wrong, he's trying to live his life right. But to say you don't understand this song cause ur not from the "ghetto" means u have a long way to go in life

[Krifko]

@RedBoiGoi My goodness, you are tiresome. I UNDERSTAND the song and its references. The guy to whom I responded, had a specific interpretation of a single LINE from the perspective of someone who shares Jay-z's background. So, out of INTEREST, I asked him kindly to elaborate on that.

[JDUBBCleveland]

@Krifko the second verse was about a guy dealing with a chick thats ready to do anything for a him even try to smuggle dope on planes and trains wherever,then when she goes to jail all her people just take everything from her noone helps her out…when he said every "Chrissy" and Tiffany Lane was a reference that it can be any lady from the hood to the suburbs….its just a song about doing things youre use to doing…cars,females,relationshi­ps,drugs..anything to steer us away from our prize

[JamesakaVicious]

Nostalgia..

[TheJADatsyuk]

Damn, this is sooooooo chill.....HOVA

[zock93]

BEAUTIFUL



[StanSPMarsh]

What you listen on a nice quiet spring day :)

[vidaa22]

[chelseamate1]

comparing nas and jay z has always been tough for me...it's impossible to answer who's better..nas might be a better lyricist but jay gets better production and is extra clever and smooth..pause that but yea it's hard to answer that..one thing i can answer though is nas winning the beef (lyrically)..jay winning the battle though..

[r3ach]

hypno

[Naota10304]

Nice! Fucking nice! "I know how this movie ends, but still I play."
