Albums Pusha T - DAYTONA (Discussion Thread)

[Sinister]

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.

I love that song

But I feel like this.

1. Meek is not as talanted. His appeal is based on image and the kind of music he makes. When I here tracks like what's free, or that Ella Mae joint or going bad the songs are hot but not really because of him. I love stuff like the Miguel track because of the emotion conveyed but he's not a crazy spitter to me. That first album let me know...that I didn't want another one...though I loved the tracks with Nas, Louie V Gutta, Trey Songz, Ross etc. He sucks at battling. Cass, Game, and even Cyssero ripped him ridiculously.

2. I think he could have taken Push. It doesn't matter because he didn't do it. fukk him. Imagine if someone heard the original version of Ether and was like "you mentioned Aaliyah dying in a car crash? We're going to want to be able to be marketable to kids and stuff" and suddenly Nas scrapped it entirely.

If you look at OVO Hush's social media responses around the the time of the King Push Prelude it sounded like he was ready to destroy Push back then a full year before 2 birds one stone.

Talent means nothing to me without heart and follow through.

Yeah I remember

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

Fallon, Kimmel, it was some late night white man, where Pusha T should never be lol

This is a lie. All his camp did was bluff but when it was time to actually do something, they retreated and cowered in fear and just waited for time to pass.

Believe in myself and the Coles and Kendricks
Let the sock puppets play in their roles and gimmicks, shyt
Remember Will Smith won the first Grammy?
And they ain't even recognize Hov until "Annie"
So I don't tap dance for the crackers and sing Mammy
'Cause I'm posed to juggle these flows and nose candy

that shyt is still.
Calling drake a sock puppet and not even having the respect to call him by his name

comparing drake to Will smith and himself to hov his integrity will not be compromised. This shyt must still burn


"Two sides to every coin, so we bail/bale ready"

Brehs, am i reaching in thinking this is play on christian bale/ harvey dent - 2 sides of the coin? shyt just hit me today whilst i was bumping this classic
