Ayy, I'm livin every twenty-four like Kobe did
Shoutout to the 6ix, R.I.P the 8's
Swear this s*** is getting ate, I'm on ten for the cake
Get a lot of love from twelve, but I don't reciprocate
Fifty one divisions stay patrolling when it's late
21 my addy so the knife is on the gate

A lot of number wordplay on this album

I was thinking about posting this in the bars thread but I was too bugged about it actually being 2-4-6-8-ate(8)-10-12

What’s some other instances?

wrong song linked lol

Thx, fixed. You like this scheme?

It’s not so much wordplay but I did notice he was using numbered lists pretty frequently e.g. “eight words when I think about us,” “three things I learned from love,” “three sides to the story,” “ten caskets on display,” and he’d go list those things off

That’s fire

Went over my f***ing head

the abc flow before this one is insane too

TAKE IT FROM A VET
THAT´S A ROOKIE ASS MISTAKE

yeah didn't even notice before this 🔥

This why I made the thread

Baccarat*

21 my addy so the knife is on the gate

What’s he doing with the numbers here?

Just some slick s***

Dang yeah definitely did not catch this

I mean like you know how the “Aye b I got your CD you get an E for effort” line has a double meaning that references the alphabet? I didn’t catch the double meaning with the numbers

21 my addy so the knife is on the gate
all the dawgs eatin off a baccarat plate

What’s the other meaning to the line?

ABCDEF

also 24 + 6 equals 30
and 10 + 12 + 8 equals 30 too

30 for 30 freestyle

No I get that but he made it seem like there was a double meaning and it’s different than the numbers progression.

Both are the same kind of technique.
Just word play. So I was wondering why he thought there was a different meaning

Ah I see, yeah I agree in that case
