Goddam @ how hard everybody coming at this song..:heh:.... Suprising... but I have no opinion either way...


I guess nikkas tired of nikkas imitating the original...



X - 1998





Eminem - 2002






Ludacris - 2006











Video concepts damn near identical:manny:

nah. gotta disagree.

A lot of "conscious" music tends to be overt...but I never really had a problem with how that song was prevented. It was a chill song...like you could party to it.


Listen.....I just feel that he tried to hard, I felt cringe when I listen to that song, It almost like someone forces him to do this song or Ludacris tried to follow the trend try to sell the record, etc.

2Pac - Brenda's Got A Baby, it was a perfect song and he knew what he was doing and you felt related to him and his song. It more know he understands the people, the situations, etc

Ghostface Killah - All I Got That Is You

Nas - Dance

DMX - I Miss You, Slippin

Biggie Small - Suicidal Thoughts

Eminem songs,

Scarface, etc.
I feel that Ludacris just tried to sell the record instead of expressing his feelings or haven't experienced that he struggles, etc.

Luda is one of the lamest rappers ever. What a wack dude.

I see that kid in here who was throwing shade on Prodigy saying he liked this embarrassment of a record. Figures. Shame.

I was :mindblown: when I found out this song charted as high number two on billboard...



With that being said, first and only time I heard this song was on a mixtape I bought back then and it was dope back then :manny:



Not a classic though.

The song didn't really grab me until I heard the album. It fits in real well with the tone of the rest of the album. I know alotta people didn't like Luda gettin all serious but I really enjoyed the album and this song within the context of the album
