It’s been long enough. This is the modern day illmatic. A rap classic. There’s not a weak track on the entire project. Let’s also be real Push zoned out here and his chances of topping this album are very low. He’ll spend the rest of his career in this albums’ shadow. He got the best of Kanye on this as well. Kanye probably doesn’t have another project like this in him either.

The fact that this didn’t win a Grammy is disgusting. Especially considering what got the award over it.

I predict snow, Al Roker


You all get a bird this is Oprah


Lol. Push is low-key funny, man. His delivery is so smug

 

[oO J Smooth Oo]

I wish he'd have chosen a better cover. We shouldn't seek to immortalize people at their lowest points. I get that Whitney had her demons but let's not take the fukking picture of her bathroom in that state when she died off drug use related issues and put it on a pedestal. Its pretty much mocking her and is in very poor taste.

This man is in his 40s. He should know better. That is something I'd expect from a rapper in their 20s.

makes the album so much more vulgar imo

 

[CHAIN]

I know exactly what you mean..

The first like 8 bars of Santeria show this..

Those first 8 bars are disgusting.
Not even lyrically though.
It's the way he delivers it, that shyt is crazy intense.

It's on some voo doo spiritual/spell/enchantment energy shyt.

Bad part is that was Kanye’s idea not Pusha’s and Kanye paid for the rights to use it.

Push just has that about him. Which is why I will never understand why Drake thought it would be ok to go at this dude.

When you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Drake lives in a consequence free world where he's on top and everything goes his way. He was coming off a battle where he destroyed and embarrassed Meek, someone most rap heads would argue is the better rapper.

He clearly thought he could clown Pusha on wax and even if Pusha came back strong, the sheer numbers of Drake's fanbase/social media/memes/etc would ensure he "won" to some degree. There's no way he could have forseen that Pusha would take things to that level, so I get why he was confident. He thought shyt was a game and ran into a guy who is a literal sociopath.

Though Pusha had other explanations for it, here was his defense of it

Infrared or Santeria?

Now that the tears dry and the pain takes over
Let's talk this payola (Payola)
You killed God's baby when it wasn't his will
And blood spill, we can't talk this shyt over (This shyt over)
The Lord is my shepherd, I am not sheep
I am just a short stone's throw from the streets
I bring my offerin', I will not preach
Awaken my demons, you can hear that man screaming
I'm no different than the priest, priest
Santería (Santería, Santería, Santería)

Santeria

That song is nuts when I figured out exactly what he was talking about

His words are true. I hate it sometimes when my wife cleans up my mess, because I had shyt in certain spots of my mess and now I have to asked her where she put it.

Yeah I remember

It was actually Fallon and for some reason, the video of the performance was taken down
