They not only gave a nod to TPain's roots with Tell a Hussie - Tallahassee - but also a nod to their roots: "Ringing the Bow bells" - anyone born withing the sound of the church bells of st Mary le Bow is a true Cockney. neat. Food is also another slang for drugs. 6pm tonight will be watching the remix with TPain. It was lit that he dropped a verse in reply to the Open Verse challenge. Good on him.
Yep. I was put onto that early on. Almost every line they say is multi-layered. It’s hard for me to catch them all first listen. Have to give it multiple listens and do a bit of research honestly

It’s from the comment sections of reaction videos that i’m learning a lot of their lyrics have double, even triple meanings
Yep. I was put onto that early on. Almost every line they say is multi-layered. It’s hard for me to catch them all first listen. Have to give it multiple listens and do a bit of research honestly
@@RetroQuinReacts I don’t think there was any way for us to learn British slang fast enough, hehe
@IranianOyibo lol u right 😂
