He was the new age Phife as far as sports references then he kinda chilled on it. He had a lot of fly shit with him in the beginning. 100 miles and running tape sold me on him
They all catching feelings, i should biletnikoff em'.god these bars go too unnoticed.if u know about sports u understand why this is one of the best lyrical tracks to date
Wale is super underappreciated. This man used Fred Biletnikoff, Olowokandi, and Vlade Divac in one verse along with countless other clever sports references. Not every song needs clever wordplay, and some artists get by on just their delivery alone. But its sad " Wah, Wah, Wah, bitch I'm lil baby" is more talked about than these kinda songs lol.
Wow. Wale went off in this one. His sport refrences made me smile. Clever wordplay for sports fans. If watch sports then you should know that this track was made for you. This made me feel happy for some reason. Tight track. Wale keep doin work
Other day i read a comment where a person said wale is an average rapper at best, those are the people who listen to this song and it flies straight over their heads
I love songs that have that "End of the sports movie underdog" feeling like you about to score the game winning touchdown I hate the mixtape but Barry Sanders is a GREAT SONG
This has to be one of Wale’s most lyrical songs! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wale The GOAT of sports references and metaphors
He was the new age Phife as far as sports references then he kinda chilled on it. He had a lot of fly shit with him in the beginning. 100 miles and running tape sold me on him

Man who cares why u comparing rappers, just listen to what u want. Don't listen to shit u don't like. Simple.
@@user-bp4qq7tt1u Man shut up. Rap like sports is supposed to be competitive. Comparisons come with the game. You sound soft as hell.

Wale deserves his flowers
