CLASSIC! This my fav Jay-Z song. There might never be another FaceMob Beans & Hov collab again smh. wish they made an album together or at least make one more song
I havent heard this song in yrs until now I'm goin thru alot bout somehow someway I know everything gonna play out to my advantage. Thanks Jay! your my mentor
man i swhere this song still fucks me up...all the shit i was goin thru when this song came out,,,,all i could do was sit and blow L's and bang this shit as loud as possible...still brings tears to my eyes....but somehow someway....i made it up out that life!
2 those that think that rap is dead... well that bullshit u talkin is dead. rap will for ever live in the hearts, minds, and microphones of those that aint scared not 2 be a nigga. Yeah it only dies when we continue 2 pay homage 2 rappers that perpetuate death thru music. The degradation of women thru music. But this song is one of God's blessing on the microphone bcuz it tells tha truth about how they dont give a fuck about us... tell me wat u think at jaishyne.king@gmail.com. Haters welcome...
He sampled my husband, lol. :p I love this song for real though. I love Jermaine Jackson too, lawd..a good rap song with Jermaines voice on it is a classic!!
fuck all the bullshit i feel this nigga some how same day im gonna make it out the hood steal from the white man give to the hood nigga thumbs up if you feel me
the mobfigaz and ampichino version way!!more stupid than this!!!stupid in nor cal...means pure DOPE NIGGA!!!STRAIGHT UP...BUT SHIT DOP TOO,BUT JIGGA SHOULDAH KEPT THIS SONG TO THE KNECK!!
real hip hop...what happened to Jay Z?i was just listening BP 1 and 2 and thought to myself did BP 3 recorderd someone else ...crazy right....anyway this song brings back lot of great memories
@jmot7558 me to homey. gave me chills when i first heard this joint. i was going through some hood bs at the time to. this was def motivation to get my grind on. the beat is ridiculous. also it's an old jermaine jackson sample "castles of sand"
"And how the Chinks gotta feed 'em...for the rest of they life, fuckin' wings, fried vegetable rice..you gotta be kiddin' me!!! Beans drop a jewel right here.
Beanie Sigel alludes to this song on his new Jay-z diss track "Ain't your average cat". It's sad how money turns fam to foe. "Rap metaphor or riddle out this muddaphucka!"
Damn, Jay is smart as fuck. For someone who dropped out of high school, he dropped the line "a tree grows in brooklyn", how many emcees know that book? I knew Jay was smart, but not that well rounded. Damn.
