    Hold the Uzi vertical
    Let the thing smoke
    Y'all flirting with death
    I be winking through the scope

    I haven't pointed out everything on the song. And this is just one 3 minute song, y'all pulling from all over Iceman to say Drake pen better

    Where on 4:44 do we have basic bars like "greater than everybody like some shredded cheese", "YM in CA like the village people", "Used to be a nice man now I'm hot and cold", "What kind of man are you? A middle one" ?

    Those are all great bars tbh

    How is that a clever scheme?

    Unless he was beefing with Lil Uzi Vert, that's a forced rhyme.

    The flirting with death/winking is a stolen Eminem bar

    Reference to Lil Uzi, winking is flirtatious, ties into the saying "flirting with death", imagery of him looking down a scope with one eye and winking

    This nigga said Jay Z saying don't abort is a reference to Beyonce miscarriage.

    Imagine your wife loses a child and she broken and your response is don't abort in a rhyme scheme

    The references to pregnancy tie into the overall theme of the album. That's how you do a well thought out concept album

    No wonder y'all impressed by the writing on this, narrative literacy levels are shocking

    Streets is my artery, the vein of my existence
    I'm the Gotham City heartbeat

    That's as far as the wordplay goes, a forced homonyn on vein/bane

    That's not as far as it goes. You missed artery/vein/heartbeat

    Meanwhile you niggas are hyping up I rack/Iraq, do buy/Dubai, Middle Eastern

    Two unrelated lines in a sing isn't how you carry the theme of a concept album.

    Go listen to GKMC again, or American Gangster.

    You're sounding mad ignorant.

    Loool, they're the exact same thing.

    One just has a forced homonym while the other doesn't.

    Artery, vein, heartbeat

    if you're talking about other dude i literally stopped reading. im "okay with both" but feel like you too are talking past each other. it seems kinda silly. i think j was spitting on that song and drake on songs on here...

    generally people wanting every bar to be super lyrically dense and weighing them the same against their own/other discographies is kinda silly if not done with a focus. comes across as cherry picking/disingenuous and lazy if serious. sometimes its a vibe. but the songs on the album in general were pretty focus and the bars were good. its a different project than this drake album..

    You're 100 percent right.

    I wouldn't have gotten into this conversation of he wasn't trying to use Jay Z lines to bring Drake down.

    I don't like either of them but facts are facts.

    You repeat concepts/themes/topics to tie them together and build a cohesive narrative. This is basic storytelling, what are you talking about

    Kendrick Lamar has skits on GKMC that mainly carry the narrative but even then he has lyrics that tie into the story

    No, you idiot.

    You don't randomly reference abortions in a song about your roots and pretend like it carries on a theme about your wife's miscarriage.

    Do you know the difference between an abortion and a miscarriage?
