I hope this album is getting enough push/exposure. I'm not sure about how many people are aware of the release

"Yall been rapping for years and Jungle made a hit....Oochie Wally idea, sold a million records, had him embarrassed signed to Colombia, blew a check he was laughing, while you in the studio rapping about your past"

To rappers who never sold crack, telling other people's lives
Never shot nobody but be shooting people in their rhymes
Never robbed nobody or re-upped with coke in they ride
I'm probably who they talking about when they're writing most of their lines
And I ain't notice it
Trapping was what was happening with bolder cliques
Around me I'm surrounded by the most devoted clique
We saw the smokers get rowdy for all the potentness
And still ain't know how sick it was in that ocean abyss

What doesn't come out in the wash comes out in the rinse
You suckers ain't had no say so
Whoever put you in the position to have a say so should be questioned theyself
I'm silk shirt, summer time sunny, sun chaser
Pretty girl tongue taster, southern girl luster
City girl love maker
The matinee watcher

The good weather on a Saturday afternoon shopper
Good gift copper
Still miss Big Poppa

Beautiful Life is great. When LIG was about to come out it was being compared to Here, My Dear a lot. Yet the album didn't feel like that at all. This track gives me that Marvin Gaye vibe though. The instrumentation, down to Nas almost imitating Gaye's spoken word dialogue....it just works man.

The Nas slander on twitter really pisses me off. These dumb fukks will overrate every wack migos or playboi carti album but hate on the GOAT. Smh. :scust:

Those people can't even understand this type of music. They don't have a mindset to listen to the lyrics, they just want catchy shyt.



Brothers..

Yall trippin over the best thing about the music...
We get to enjoy it all to ourselves...
I'm glad the "Others" dont like what I like....
When I pull up playing "War Against Love".
They just gonna hear shyt they dnt understand... and they gonna know...
"ME and you are just different"
(Insert 50cent pulling off laughing gif)
Lol
