“Flew em back to the states park 92 bricks in front of 560 State, now the Nets a stone throw from where I use to throw bricks, so it’s only right I’m still tossing around Knicks” 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Emory got knocked, we was down 10. The whole team hot, walls closing in. Niggas can't tell me shit about this dope game, bout this cocaine...man I done seen it all!
This still gets played in 2018. If you are of a certain calibre, this song resonates with you in a way that most people just can't understand. It doesn't just speak to people in the trap. Its about people coming up from difficult situations, going through good and bad times, but still pushing forward towards their goals. No matter your circumstances; get up, give thanks, go hard.
My man, you're a hiphop renaissance man, like myself. We probably have alot in common with music considering we agree about the underlying meaning of this song.
"We use to take a lil show money just to throw money, if it's on da floor nigga it's da floor money. If brought it out to blow and you got it off da blow That's why da fk we call da shit blow money".... That was fire!
Trill shit real shit no other way to explain it. Blow the money up like a meth lab. Give back to the community. Help the poor come up to even experience life with the rich just so they know GOD does exist.
yo this song still gives me chills Jay-Z was real transparent on this track. his uncle getting murdered, dad becoming an, addict how he came up in the drug game, found a big connect, then was trafficking cocaine to eastern shore Maryland (where his cousin Emory Jones got arrested served ten years) he has seen it all
I still fw this song in 2020, and I recall an interview that Jay Z had with someone and told them that the song brought tears to his eyes. Great track from two living legends.
"now the Nets a stone's throw from where I used to throw bricks, so it's only right I still toss around Knicks" this ... is waaaay too much to unpack. 1) the literal part -- the place where the Brooklyn Nets are headquartered (the Barclays) is near where he used to sell drugs (throwing bricks) 2) the stone's throw / bricks parallel 3) "throwing a brick" is a basketball term for a shot hitting the backboard (more Nets stuff) 4) New York Knicks = another basketball team 5) toss around knicks = selling nickel bags
Bruh swear to god this song still gives me goosebumps. Still so so hard in December '18. This shit goes bananas in my trunk too. Damn near blew my back window out.
One of my favorite rap songs of ALL time. If you ever spent ANY time in the street... This will make the hair on the back your neck stand up. This shit goes HARD!!
Did you peep those entendres in JayZs verse. The whole thing was a metaphor to vision. Catch a 'Contact' standing next to my kitchen, my rollie ain't ticking 'eye ball'. Got Damn
Nobody can understand how I love this song. Ive some strange this in my life and I always come back to this sing anytime I reflect in my past. God is good always . #seenitall
2 losses hmmm I can deny that. Though remember both Pac and Biggie died after they began to want something different. I'm still haunted by this thought. Jus' sayin'. 💯
@@HovitoBaby That both of them wanted to change their lives to an extent. I remember hearing it in Biggie's voice. He said something to the effect of not wanting to talk about ish he doesn't do any more...shortly after he was murdered.
Jeezy's intro/drop/verse truly gives me goosebumps every time ... "My homie hit me up told me going out of town so I threw him 50k told him bring me back two ..."
Jay can seem so soft until he has to elevate his game and then hes nasty. Real nasty. Jay and jeezy kill it everytime. Old school fan here. Jeezy is by far the best of the new era.
It’s 2021 my dad use to play this in the car when I was a jit and this is still going hard af. I seem to be feeling this song more than ever this year. I hope y’all out there gettin it.
I was a Jeezy fan before Trap or Die was released ; I've listened to all his albums. I love all genres of music & like to see & listen to growth in artists! When I first heard this track, I knew Jeezy was solid! I still bump this💪😆😬🎛️‼️! Jay has been solid from day 1 in my book.
Definitely be better than watch the throne. They would make a more relatable album. 4 the most part i dont feel Jays new shit. It is to reflective of his current lifestyle. I dont have Picasso's and other high end art hanging in my apartment so I cant relate. But a jeezy album would be hella dope. It would bring jigga back to his roots.
💯 I miss Jat when HD was on his street shit he just so wealthy now its hard to relate it would definitely be better than Watch the Throne Kanye is not lyrical period lol
Jay is Jay. So he will always have the ability to put together complex rhymes and flip words, but i only like 1 song on Magna Carta. I just cant relate to his content. Im diverse shit dont gotta be gangster 4 me to listen to it but Jay is just too fuckin rich 4 the average person. I get it. Mans been mega rich for over 20 years so what else he gon talk about.
That versus brought me here. I forgot how dope the song and beat was. Adding this shit to my Spotify. Whoever did that beat, I know they felt a lil cooler when they played this joint back
December 2022 theres talk of jayz being irrelevant and i came back here to remind myself that convo is ridiculous, this verse stands forever in history as one of his greatest of all time
I was driving through Holland tunnel! When I first heard this, a level of seriousness overtook me where I realized my experience and know everyone won’t understand!!! Somethings are better left unexplained!! Norfolk Raised me
Jay Z been goin n 4 years on every album. Yall jus aint been listenin. Even on da shit yall thought wuz weak. Him and Nas da greatest rappers alive. Jay and Be r black royalty partyin wit da Obamas. Dat man came from da streets and look where he at now. He had a vizion and he saw it happenin which is called faith. Much respect Jay. Fuck deez niggaz. U done graduated.

khareem bruce he was out Cambridge Maryland
khareem bruce truthfully all facts Hov GOAT

Jeezy said Jay cried while writing this verse. You can hear his pain in the verse. He ripped this
Emory's not his cousin. They're great friends!
When he played this in the battle it was over. Jezzy vs Gucci 2020
Go back and see what happens and
like Gucci was saying play new shit but when jeezy dropped this it was all over
Once I hear Jay say “real shit” I get hyped..
I still fw this song in 2020, and I recall an interview that Jay Z had with someone and told them that the song brought tears to his eyes. Great track from two living legends.

"now the Nets a stone's throw from where I used to throw bricks, so it's only right I still toss around Knicks"
this ... is waaaay too much to unpack.
1) the literal part -- the place where the Brooklyn Nets are headquartered (the Barclays) is near where he used to sell drugs (throwing bricks)
2) the stone's throw / bricks parallel
3) "throwing a brick" is a basketball term for a shot hitting the backboard (more Nets stuff)
4) New York Knicks = another basketball team
5) toss around knicks = selling nickel bags
Don't miss the point that he shitting on the knicks too, tossing bricks like knicks. It's only right lol #GodMc

And "Nets" a play on the actual court/baskets.

This is Real HIP HOP. These young cats out today DEFINITELY NEED TO STUDY THIS TRACK. Lyrics on fire and the beat is blazin.
How does Hov not write, I get confused with all the double entendres and bars, and I'm just listening. Ironically he's in the songwriters HOF
Jay-Z is known to have written tracks for Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and Beyonce just to name a few.
Damn HOVA!!!... MY GOD... THIS IS WHY YOUR CROWNED!!!!
