fukk a Ford dealership, we up in Forbes. Watching and they wishing that it wasn't yours.

Just think earlier.

2011-2014 Dom coulda been smooth as hell on one of these tracks :francis:

Dom was like 85-90% prime Dom on Double Up but that 2010-2014/15 Dom might never come back mane.

His voice still kinda off/low energy although this verse had some energy to it, Nip probably made him redo his verse 20 times.

This a dope read.
Nipsey Hussle Tells The Epic Stories Behind 'Victory Lap,' Track By Track

Nipsey tells the story of the making of or thought behind every song.

I dug this one.

"Succa Proof"

I've been known to be real positive lately, real business astute and an inspirational figure. But I have to tap back into the energy of what this is. We ain't endorsing celebrities and gang membership. We ain't doing that in my tribe. We trying to redefine the tribe. We trying to stimulate the young people that did come from jail. But I been there; we trying to be on good terms.


This ain't no subliminal diss for anybody that started bangin' after they were successful. That's Soulja Boy; that's Chris Brown. If the shoes fits, wear it. I know Soulja Boy and I know Chris Brown, but I want to be real. As far as gang bangin', they're not gang bangers. You probably are a real n****. But as far as Piru, Crip, Blood, you're not a Blood, you're not a Piru. You'll never be one, period. You're not a Crip. That's just a fact. Stop playing. I got dead homies from this, for real.


Do I feel like Soulja Boy's not a man? Nah. I respect Soulja Boy. I've been in the club with Soulja Boy. [But] if I got a little brother and he's doing goofy s***, I'ma tell him: That's goofy, bro. That ain't a hundred. But I still got love for you. You still my brother, but that's goofy and we ain't condoning that type of goofiness. Period. That's what this song is about. We ain't gonna tell you to gang bang; we gonna tell you to buy out the block. And we gonna support the businesses and create tourism around here. This is Crenshaw Boulevard. This is a famous street.

Breh you telling the truth. I keep seeing people post that prime Dom was back on this track, but I just wasn't hearing it. He sounded cool, but this was in no way the Yellow Album/Get Home Safely Dom. He lost something in his spirit, just can't figure out what it is. Did something happen with dudes health?
