Yo she deserves a TON of credit bc there’s a lot of ‘random’ bars from that era that are now common sayings and the originators don’t get credit

I been meaning to make a thread on how ‘Give you your flowers’ is now everywhere. That shyt come from Oschino! They give you flowers while you dead but no soup when you sick’.

Jalen rose used to always quote that on his podcast (and give Oschino credit), then started using it on ESPN…then Nore started saying it…and it blew up

Want to say both the Oschino quote and the Bleek line are older, one is a like a literary reference, and the Bleek one is maybe Malcom X, or am I way off?

I always though the Bleek line was a revolutionary one but after some looking, it appears to be an original

man, I had Bleek's debut in 1999, he was one of my favorites at that age, and there was hardly any Bleek fans in San Diego circa late 90's

Used to argue with E40 and Kurupt fans all day
