      Ghaniza W there are a lot of rappers with the same morals. Some are forgotten and others haven’t reach that level of fame.

      And also the hook with "you got what I want / I got what you need.." is insaaane, the instrumental is really good, puts me in a great mood and at peace. My first listen of the album wasn't that great but I placed some song in my playlist and after another listen I was blown away. Cole has come a long way.. idk what you're doing now man, it's been 6 years since your comment, but I hope you still appreciate his work as much as you were doing back then!!

    He may be talking about selling a soul but it definitely isn't his soul, he is talking about not becoming like the rest of the industry that's trying to sell him dreams! Better yet it's in the title "I hate rich niggaz" because he knows what a these famous celebrities had to do to reach where they are..

      this song is definitely about celebrities and all they have to do to get to the top and u really wonder why kanye flips out and nobody says anything. becuz that's the effects of wanting it ALL from hollywood and doing some senseless stuff to get it. this song makes me think of the typical hollywood rock star and rapper meeting at the cross roads trading war stories as tupac would say about their journey to the top of the industry. just listen to it. with most of us white or black coming from fxxxed up environments youd be surprised who wouldn't take that deal with "the devil".. look at the 27 club members. idc personally ain't nothing worth not having peace and freedom. billion dollars or not I ENJOY going to the mailbox alone and eating of the 1$ menu at McDonald's without 1000 ppl waiting to see what I eat.
