Watching in 2024 and still get chills when you talk about the rent money missing. I remember when I found out my moms rent money was missing and my homes were responsible... never felt like I hurt my momma so much
Technique released his shit back in 01 tho, don´t forget about that. Storytelling rap wasn´t gone, just that most of those kinds of rappers end up in the shadow
ya but I mean Joey was a freestyle so it requires more talent, whereas him he wrote the song. Not saying the song is bad, holy shit is this song good, but the fact that Joey freestyled puts him ahead
ive loved joey for a while hes unique with his word play and its hard to find but im the type of person who looks for that deep as message in music that 90% of the liseners dont pay attention to cuz the beat is hard or some stupid shit like that Joey hada flawless freestyle but this was flawless and then some cuz the message here is deep compared to joeys freestyle it goes together but the message is kind of plain. idk maybe i tihnk way to deep into music now and days but 90% of these new age rappers are fucking trash so i gotta find that one diamond in the rough that has that message to be sent across to bring people together not apart
Melvin Buckley Yeah well that's what he thought at the moment, he didn't know who was wearing that mask that's why he said it, it's just about imagination while listening, sometimes you can imagine yourself in the moment with good raps, the guy has got some mad flow and good bars.
Chrismvp 13 I went through something similar when I was young. I had a fave cousin he was my world my everything. one day he was playing dice in my crib while nobody was home and when we came home he was in the kitchen eatin like nothin and he had ramsacked my crib out of all people but the apple doesnt fall far from the tree smh :(
Chrismvp 13 yeah he was acting like he was upset "should i come with the grip?" Knowing that he was already there with a gun just not in the way the audience thinks
Damn, maybe it's just me but I didn't see that coming. I thought while they were fighting for the gun he would've accidentally shot the cousin running in or something. But this is worst, can't trust anyone. Blood don't mean a thing now these days.
I would absolutely cry but he sending a message about not trusting anyone even family and know one gets it and it shows dude man pours his heart into his music hella underrated
You remind me so much of immortal technique. The game is seriously missing storytellers like you. Been listening for years and these songs are still in my daily rotation
J jon so 🔥🔥🔥🔥 and so underrated!!! I wish they would stop giving these no talented ass people a chance to shine and give the ones who BEEN had talent a chance!!!!
I knew I recognised you from a rap video a couple years ago, C.O.P , Years later you still got that fire man, Mad love and respect🔥🔥 Love from Australia bruh, keeping it 💯

He was giving signs on it was his cousin, the message said " I'll be there in a bit, JUST FALL BACK" but he tried to make us focus on the rap
Didn't think anyone else peeped that
Aylton Gamboa what does just fall back mean
Aylton Gamboa Exactly.
Aylton Gamboa exactly when he said jackpot the perfect day for her to get robbed for 2k
Melvin Buckley Yeah well that's what he thought at the moment, he didn't know who was wearing that mask that's why he said it, it's just about imagination while listening, sometimes you can imagine yourself in the moment with good raps, the guy has got some mad flow and good bars.
