Roc La Familia Dynasty Intro vs Stillmatic Intro

[mson]

There's no such thing as a bloodline of slaves. Only a bloodline of kings tbh

A person is a king through bloodline, not heart. A slave's perseverance comes from his heart, not blood

If you're of African descent in the Americas then you probably have the blood of slaves in your veins. Maybe you are not used to the phrasing. The heart pumps blood. Who the hell knows where a slaves perseverance comes from? His heart, blood, spirit, or maybe all three. It's just splitting hairs at this point.

this c00n here... theres nothin to understand other than naS got the simple ass line backwards... the sooner you dumb ass c00ns realize it the better

#beanaStan

how can you argue over a line in which you have no understanding of

do you even understand the reference to the prophets of the old testament

thats the problem with you so called rap fans. You listen for entertainment so when an individual comes around that attempts to provide more than entertainment, if you can't grasp it, y'all alienate it. N*ggaz fear what they don't understand, hate what they can't conquer, i guess its just the theory of man.

 

[Wacky D]

whoever said the stillmatic beat is wack is buggin.

hangmen went in on that there. BENZINO DA GREAT!!!!

 

[JetSetter22]

the lyrics in Stillmatic Intro are more powerful than Dynastys but Dynasty beat is so dope

Stillmatic lyrics tho

 

[newworldafro]

I was going to say Nas just because, but after listening to Jay's verse...I have to say it's neck and neck tie.... i think the "Blood of a slave, heart of king" is potent enough, but Jay had quotables off iof there.. ... it's a tie...

 

[Diunx]

Stillmatic by FAR.

 

[intilectual recipricol]

I'm not African American, I'm Nigerian but OK. You do you breh

These c00ns here in the US think they are slaves by blood, not kings... you'll have to forgive them.

 

[prophecypro]

Stillmatic man, that shyt is automatic classic

Explain the meaning of the name Nigeria then, cuz sounds like evidence of a slave bloodline to me

What's Nigeria's name got to do with my Ijaw bloodline breh?

But I'll bite and I'll explain the origin of Nigeria's name to you

Flora Shaw named the country Nigeria after the Niger river. The river Niger has that name from the Tuareg's from Mali. They called the river egerew n-igerewen.

So in a funny way, the name and bloodline is all african breh

 

[Grizzly]

The Dynasty Intro

 

[beenz]

man, I have NEVER been able to choose. both are equally dope. I'm just that cats are in here saying that either of these songs is weak tho. lets be reality. there is no wrong answer.

 

[dubsmith_nz]

I gotta go with the Dynasty intro, that's Jay at his best.

the word niger is the same word as n*gger, as in the blacks who were sold to europeans and arabs


nigeria is the land that had the largest concentration of n*ggers/nigers AKA blacks sold in the transatlantic and arab slave trades


now explain to me why you think niger and n*gger are two different words with two different meanings
