I dig Marcy Me most but I find it ironic that he's shouting out Old BK and "not this new shyt" when it was JAY who allowed himself to be the face of the Barclays Center project which ushered out old Brooklyn for this new Brooklyn gentrification shyt.

Yet when it was the groundbreaking ceremony at Brooklyn Borough Hall and all of the developers, nets ownership and others were there...not a near mention of his name in those two hours.

He was used as the guy to "calm the natives" aka the locals aka my Brooklyn...his so called Brooklyn.

This picture below he took was from his old crib on State Street I used to see him at all the time.

I had some close friends lose businesses in that area because they couldn't afford it anymore. There are hardly any more black businesses in that area.

Don't shout out our old borough when you played a role in creating "this new shyt" you're running from.

I'll never forgive him for that shyt.

Hate to tell you that you are bringing nothing thinking you're teaching me anything.

Gentrification accelerated 20% since 04'..thank you.

This nikka is retarded. That banks freestyle was labeled a freestyle because he spit some bars on another nikka beat. Not because he did it off the top of his head. fukk is wrong with u remedial ass nikkas? You've never heard acrapper spittin over someone else beat called a freestyle? It's just a rap thing.

Now if you wanna get down to the actual act of free styling. There's only a few that can do it really well...acapella or over a beat. With that said....hov does not record songs on the spot off the top of his head. This is also taking nothing away from him...the way him n biggie created songs (lil Wayne too) by memorizing lines into verses over time before they get to the booth....is dope. But that's not what supernatural or king los does when nikkas ask em to freestyle.

Now stop catching feelings over a misunderstanding
Wayne freestyles some of his songs

Wayne also punches in a lot so at this point its probably nothing to lay 4 bars off top, cut, rinse and repeat

funny you say this cause there was a shooting out there not long ago, not all of Brooklyn is gentrified. there's still hoods like ENY, Canarsie and Flatbush. but yea that area changed alot.
