Who was Jay-z talking about on the last verse on Heart of the city?
It's "to top it all off beef with white, pulling bleach out, tryna throw it in my eyesight...yo fucc is on your mind?".
that's a great pull.....
I never put 2 and 2 together
.beef with wife, trying to throw it in my eyesight
(the fukk is on your mind?)
OBFCL came out after the first biggie album and before the 2nd one.It's "to top it all off beef with white, pulling bleach out, tryna throw it in my eyesight...yo fucc is on your mind?"
White as in frank white
And kick in the door is mostly about rae and ghost...rae and ghost is the mad rapper...nas and jeru got the few notorious bars but the majority of it is directed at rae and ghost
Tbh...life after death should be called
Subliminal diss: the double album
Rae and ghost got LIT UP throughout the album
I'm also glad someone in this thread actually acknowledged "your fam, destiny lays in my hands..." was a sub at nas...the nicca big got so slick with verbally slapping niccas that niccas call his blatant subs reaches
what the bloody hell are you talking about??OBFCL came out after the first biggie album and before the 2nd one.
Unless that Raekwon line alludes to a scene from King of New York that I missed, how can it be about Biggie?
And it cannot be a reply to Kick In the Door verse about "throw bleach in your eye" which came out AFTER Rae's song.
Sounds like it makes more sense if it's "beef with wife"...like she caught him cheating and spazzed out or some shyt.
As far as Big lighting up Rae and Ghost......it makes sense....the intro to "Kick In the Door" was the madd rapper skit which was clearly.....a response to R&G and Wu.....
So how did street battling back then work? We see now coordinated events where the crowd decides the outcome, but on a Brooklyn corner at sundown in November 92, 10 dudes behind one MC, 10 dudes behind the other...does each rapper get 2 rounds and they just part ways on some respect shyt?in grimms mind he won... in x mind he never lost a battle... you cant ask a nikka who battles "who won?" lol

So I take it the person who got tired first lost?They rapped until one ran out of bars.. aka unlimited rounds. They stopped when they got tired. DMX said he omce battled mysonne on the 6 train from the first stop to the last stop... thats a long train ride
Also if a dude ran up on you at random you had no choice but to rap or it would look like you were scared lol. Well not if you were famous of course. But part of the battle culture. Helps that there were no cameras back then there were alot of recycled bars. Reason why T rex still recycles out of habit. He's been battling that long. I think a teenage T rex actually battled DMX at one point after he got his deal
what the bloody hell are you talking about??
"why would i throw bleach in your eye" was a response to "to top it all off.."
this is not even a debate...this is well known hip hop history...me and you both know biggie called himself frank white, hence why rae used the bleach metaphor and started the line off "to top it all off beef with white"...wife???? tbh, this is not even an obscure sublim...people caught it BACK THEN
but you're just getting muddled up in your own cluttered thinking...it's alrite though
T Rex indeed battled DMX and X went CRAZY on him.They rapped until one ran out of bars.. aka unlimited rounds. They stopped when they got tired. DMX said he omce battled mysonne on the 6 train from the first stop to the last stop... thats a long train ride
