About the Album:
“This Life Forever” is one of Jay-Z’s greatest Jay-Z musical efforts, sadly not known by the general public. It was recorded pre-Reasonable Doubt in 1995, but was left off his classic debut.
The track intimately details Hov’s street-level plotting, breaking down how he used to get paper before he made it big in the rap game. While the entire track is full of supreme wordplay and a double entendres, Jigga is in his best form on the second verse as he employs mathematical humor and manoeuvres within an extended chess metaphor that would make even GZA jealous.
The track was produced by the dark and gritty Queens producer Ty Fyffe, who came up under fellow Hov collaborator and the inventor of New Jack Swing, Teddy Riley. The beat samples Congress Alley’s 1973 track “Are You Looking.” Dr. Dre’s classic West Coast banger “Nuthin' But a G-Thang” also sampled this track.
While portions of the track first appeared in 1997 on a Roc-A-Fella Records promotional tape, “This Life Forever” had its official release in July 1999 on the soundtrack to Black Gangster, an unreleased film that was based on Donald Goines‘ 1972 blaxploitation novel.
Yo appreciate the reaction again I glad you enjoyed all three I believe the bars saying tracks got you feeling strong like Mason could have also been a shot at the rapper Mase who he had a some beef around that time. His real name is Mason. He was getting at Mase on his song Imaginary player and also on his song Ride or die. . On ride or die he has a line where he says niggas talking real greasy on them R&B records but I'm plantnium a million times nigga check the credits. I think he was kind of doing the same thing on here saying tracks got you feeling strong like a Mase meaning he likes to play tough guy get hard when he gets on some of those beats.
@@njnatl09 Shout-out for the context, from what you mentioned I was only aware imaginary players being a diss.
@@ZDFP oh yeah and no doubt especially the entire first verse was going straight at mace. He has another line in which hes says check your own videos you always be number two. I can't remember what song it was but Mase had a video with Diddy and he have the number 2 on the back of his jersey while Diddy he had the number one. 😂😂 you should check it out again not for reaction to anything but on your own time now that you know who he's talking about.
