Rick Ross "Valley Of Death" Appreciation Thread (Powerful Music)

[RAW_SPK]

So with "Black Market" a lil more than a month away I decided to revisit the classics and found myself stuck on this gem



so many quotables....the 50 lines were also pure piff and done in a nonchalant "as a matter of fact" type of way

Walk like a giant, talk like a tyrant
Faith of a mustard seed, destined for a triumph
David or Goliath, hate me or admire
Kush burns slow, as I chase my desire
Embrace my empire - Batty Boy, eat fire!
Guns like choirs, when they sing, "Keep quiet!"
"Will I get to heaven?" Turn to Psalm 27
Lord knows when I see this Monkey, I'mma be The Devil
Beat him cause I'm clever, beat him at whatever
You never was a G nikka, Unit mean together!
New York unified, Down South love that
When we got to shine - "Muthafukkas, where the love at?"

Very first line, he called Trick Daddy stupid
Say he got AIDS, tellin' people that it's lupus

Who the fukk you callin' losers?
You nikkas losin - look like you could use us!

Can't criticize nikkas tryin' to get jobs
Better get smart - young brother, live yours!
Only live once and I got two kids
And for me to feed them, I'd get two gigs!
I'd shovel shyt, I'd C.O
So we can bow our head and pray over the meatloaf

Unit mean together! Mmg still going strong. Many hit records between them. Any artist requesting to leave freed from their contract. Then never went on to speak ill of the man.

Curtis could never.

Don't forget Ross never picking a side when Wale and Meek had their situation. Ross also never trippin when Meek...distanced himself or even when he was all friendly with 50. Put out Gunplay despite him not selling.

Meek distancing himself when Ross was beefing with 50 was so fukking nasty, that shyt pissed me off, Meek has no character

@Lil Gator Reloaded

Wayne was on this?

It was a good decision because this is a straight-up classic song and it deserves to be a solo song

Around the time of deeper than rap when they were previewing it they said Wayne would be on it.

Album was supposed to have a Mary J Blige track

Spoiler

Schindler's list was supposed to be on Deeper than rap as well

 

[BK The Great]

Dope song.
