Canibus 702-386-5397

702-386-5397 the rejection hotline. This track is contains a specific message over a hand-picked and high amped beat. He seizes the moment to encode more metaphor through clever reference:

"Fourth generation Roper report
Everything I was taught bore resemblance to my thoughts
The truth and design of the Guggenheim rhyme
Where every line is weaponized then applied
Mob sh-t, target acquisition is sick
I don't miss, when I twist, the 5.56" (M4 Carbine round/M16)

After the above verse there is a sample of Nas from 2006 listing Canibus alongside 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G., and Eminem in the context of rap battling. Then he fires another shot at the state of hip-hop:

"I support a secure change of custody.
Don't trust the beat. Trust me, Canibus the emcee.
Without moving my neck I turn to the left.
Yes I am the best you will learn to respect.
Until your death, Hip-Hop is the body, you are the chest.
I am the vest; we are sworn to protect.
This behavioral bomb rewritable radio songs
"What station is your radio on?"

Around :38 seconds I believe he says a dose of "unununium", which is a heavy element. I could be wrong though

Nonetheless this song is sick, Bis rips it like always

[trooperjoe73]

Very possible, although, I'm not sure how that element would fit into the story line. "Polonium, pandemonium, ____"

I thought he was using "Unknownium" as a metaphor for the natural progression from the 1st to the 3rd. Polonium can be used as a poison, pandemonium, to __?__=Total Chaos

Then again, you could be right.

@negroblax I know I'm 2 years late on this reply, but bis drops a lot of hints toward his military service on this track, that's why civilians who never served don't understand the meaning of his words. In the lyrics that visually flow over this video, there's a miss-spelling. On the line "dogs jump outta the dooly" the word is actually "duely" which is a military nickname for a DUAL wheeled or double wheels on each side troop transport truck.

It's impossible for bis to go commercial

[JAVILOCz559]

is he from vegas?

[tehgreatist]

@rokaij0991 could be. in armenia they use the dram and oman they use the rial, so either way it would be foreign currency.

[rokaij0991]

@tehgreatist I believe he says Omanian as in Oman, a small country on the Arabian peninsula.

[supgify]

What's there to get about this song? I'm so confused
