    I just went and listened to the song off the strength of this thread, that ? is average AF y'all ? be listening to some

    ? ,and then reading the comments is even more hilarious.

    Whoa Kimosabe, lol. It's not the greatest beat of all time, but it rides. All I'm saying is I think a higher caliber of emcee could have done the beat more justice. ? love bein anti. lol

    I've seen some random vids on Facebook of no name ? lacing that beat. The whole premise of the thread is ? not maximizing a hot ass beat and this is the most recent example of it.

    When I say "waste", I'm not talking about the chart performance and sales of the record. I'm talking about the lack of lyrical expertise to enhance the record. The song jammin to me, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I thought a more skilled emcee would have went harder on the track.

    Yeah its obviously on of if not the hottest rap song out right now. People be singing along to the lyrics in the club. Its an adrenaline rush. This aint the type of music for people on this site. A lotta these people need to stick to Lupe and music for them. This is actual music thats in the "real world" people like me come here to escape and laugh about Lupe but songs like this is what I really listen too. But those are 2 different worlds. They managed to make this kinda funny though credit due.

    Hey I respect your opinion, but some cats in the "real world" like lyrics and and real content as well as dope beats. No harm, no foul, U like what ya like, and I do like the song myself, but everybody ain't gone love that type of music and that's ok. Different strokes for different folks.
