the hook was taken from the third verse of solja rag. Either he meant it like that and its true meaning eludes us all, he left the line as in cause he didn't wanna admit he fukked it up on solja rag, or he legitimately fukked up the line twice on two hit singles a year apart :manny:



random thought: I always thought the beat flip at the end of the song was the best part and was disappointed no one spit on it for a remix or something
I always took "make nothing outta something" to go right along with the next line "you handle your biz, don't be crying and sufferin", meaning you do all your work(take something to do and make it nothing to do) and you are able to control your emotions and focus on the task at hand(take all the somethings goin on and make nothing of it) :lupe:

Yeah, I always knew it was a flip of make nothing into something, which is that whole "Dollar out of $0.15 mentality". It's a dark side rebuke of a lot of blacks success stories.

Where I can probably point out a lot of glamorization, even if it's glamorization like horror movies glamorize the horrible, I make the argument that is really people that are just resigned to the fact..

Or in the common tongue, it just is what it is.

No sense in trying to change things, no sense in looking into the precursors how this came to be, or consequences thereof.

Nihilism, cynicism, fatalism, there are these themes that are omnipresent in a lot of hip-hop music. High key it's probably my favorite part of the music.

What was the first single?:dwillhuh:
They got it wrong. Everything I'm seeing is saying Ha is the first single. I know that's what put me on to Cash Money. First time I heard it I was like "what is this bullshyt". Second time was wait a minute this kind of raw. By the third time I was ready to scoop the CD.
