Facts!!!!

Get your Mac, get your gat, head for 95
Stop, pick up your dogs, tell em, "Let's ride"
Throw in some doo-wop shyt, lean in your car
Knowing you'll hear some new O.C. or Gang Starr
It ain't too far once you into VA
fukk with your high-beams and see who's going your way
Keep your scanner on so the man won't trap you
Now leadin the convoy to the Big Apple!
Tell your homies, "fukk that thing" pimpin the left lane
Make your Honda Accord perform like a plane
You in Deleware, you almost here
The New Jersey Turnpike, is right there (right there)
Haul-ass, make your backwheels spin
Get in the wind, your under a hundred miles in
When you reach the Lincoln Tunnel, black, hit me on my box
We on the other side of that bytch with Cognac and Glocks

Random thought, its crazy how ESOM took over the Frank Sinatra song as the go to NY song for tourists. Go to times square and there's a bunch of tourists hustlers playing ESOM on repeat with those spinning selfie sticks

The song in OP is fire, but its better suited for the old grimy NY



Nas is the old NY and the new NY at the same time (He has a line that says this lol)



Anyway, Brooklyn's Finest with Jay & Biggie is my favorite NY anthem, I spent most of my life living in Brooklyn so that song is my favorite. Love how they shout out all the BK neighborhoods on the hook.
