    We know back in the day rap was on another level when this was fire af and the dude recording says “for someone tired it wasn’t too bad”. This was considered “not to bad” now a days these new artist can’t come up with nothing half as good even if they write it. 4:46

      They’re being sarcastic with the comment btw... these dudes knew L was hot.
