I play albums to death. I know ever lyric from every jay album, Kanye, Drake, Lupe and a couple others.

I got homeboys like you that listen to a different album every time they hop in the car.

it probably is a waste of brain cells.

But put on the following:

Reasonable Doubt
Get Rich or Die Trying
The Infamous
Hell on Earth
Diplomatic Immunity
Watch the Throne
The Cold Vein
Creepin on ah Come Up


some others i'm forgetting and a gang of mixtapes

and I will recite every word

I can only really know the complete lyrics to a song if I try to spit the lyrics a lot. Like I pretty much know Nas The Don lyrics by heart now because I like that song a lot.

I'm going to get tired of it soon enough though :damn:

Once I know the lyrics to a song by heart completely is when it becomes unlistenable to me :damn:

The only albums I probably know ever single bar is
Paid in full (crazy since I wasn't even born), Thriller, Blueprint, MMLP, 7 Day theory, Watch the throne (cause it just dropped) and TM101. Interesting thing is that none of these albums are in my top 5, not even top 10. Besides Paid in full.

It's a useless "talent", but I'm pretty good at memorizing songs word for word. Lot of that comes from listening to the song while reciting the lyrics off the computer though.
