wanna fight 😂 😮‍💨

Just kiddin, damn Kobe's killin it.

Thanks man, what can i say im a peaceful Jamaican. 😮‍💨

Kobe is ................................ i dont have the words. I was ready to throw in the towel after the 2nd, but you can see that the Lakers energy has picked up now Kobe has caught fire. He doesnt play the team game as well as Nash but tonight you can see why he is so important to his team and how they feed off his intensity, it gives them confidence.

it's not a good song (compared to so many of the other songs i've heard), so many other mc's have said the same thing. MC's that come to mind, Kool G Rap, Cormega, Nas, Spice 1, Too Short, Masta Ace, Ras Kass, Cannibal Ox etc... they've all done the same topic about the hard life.

Cannibal Ox- Pidgeon
Cannibal Ox- Painkillers

Yo, some nights we got so drunk
Its like we miss the feeling
Of a never ending headache
And a spinning ceiling
The sob story of an alcoholic
On his hands and knees
Praying to that porcelain toilet
Whether behind bars or in front of ?scars?
We use medicine to numb the rap ?bar?
I might tell you something that'll change your death
Pain kills the life
Pleasure loves the breath
Ox I ?compel?
I'll spit this in hell
With L's hanging off my body
And no ice cooler
Every rhyme I write
Is civilize my future wife
Breaking her water
In a time without order
Yo, chaos is born
A seance is spawned
And I resurrect like ?beings?
That resemble red ?dawns?
I guess that's why I was born
To recognize the beauty of a rose's thorn
And learn from the strife of a soul that's torn
To be forewarned
Just to be forearmed
So let that thought settle
As we backpeddle
Through the seven seas of info
That'll crush your ego
Some of us pop pills and snort coke
To pain kill
Some of us rap drugs and bear witness
Cause life's ill
Y0, but true happiness comes from within
You can't rely on a substance
Look at addiction for instance
And in an instance
You'll wake up out of that
Requiem for a Dream
But you still caught it in the rectum

Can Kobe go for 71?

It's not a good song? WOW....**** it.

COMPARED to the many other songs which talk about the same thing and are executed better. simply my opinion. you keep yours i keep mine. 👆

I don't even think you listened to the ****ing song to say "there's other rappers who talk about the hard life".

Do you even understand the song? Did you even get it?

Yep.

I can see how somebody can relate to what he's saying. His lyrics aren't great or anything, but it sounds like he's spitting from experiance and that's something I never hate on. If you're going to rap about it, be it. His flow isn't special but it's not bad either. Voice is easy to listen to. The beat is ok. It's not dope, but I dig mellow beats so it's ok to me.

It's a decent track. Again, it didn't grab me and make me want to listen to more Budden tracks, but it wasn't wack.

See, I told you I'd be fair. Only if you could be the same.

Kobe breaks the Laker record of 71. Still 4+ mins to go...................

Which goes back to the statement I made before posting the song.

*Throws hands up* **** it.

Honestly kool, I think Kobe can beat the Raps by himself so it's not that surprising lol

Amazing performance though.

This is one of Joe's best tracks.

The topic is real and the story line is well put together. The beat is sick, and puts you in a grimm mood. His flow is on point. He's animated, and his delivery makes you feel what each character is going through.....but opinions are like assholes.

how is that so? i even stated that it's impressive for someone that hasn't heard enough hip hop. compared to the many songs i've heard which relate to this (Brother Ali- Dorian *for example comes to mind*) are much better.

Please.

Yup. Some just stink more than others.
