I think its been established that the average Jay-Z fan is a dumb n1gga...
okay bruh, you're smarter than everyone on this site. :yeshrug:


You automatically knew every street across the country, every hood nickname, every term for something which varies from region to region without ever visiting any of them.

I dunno, most of the time the metaphors that rappers use, you can put two and two together on your own. Even the Canibus type rappers aren't that hard to understand.

For me the hardest references to get are the 5% references. "Nas is like an afrocentric asian, half man half amazin'" had me like :mindblown: for a while until I figured out it was a 5% reference to the Aziatic man. :heh:

Breh I just know people that know people and was constantly being put onto game... The things not spelled out for me were discovered through
deductive reasoning... I also read a lot...

in ya mama bed
:comeon:

Reading lyrics and the double-triple meanings behind them that may not be evident directly in the song is always more interesting than listening like, "wth is this nikka talkin about"

Some of us don't have time to stay current on every new aspect, or regiona aspect of hip-hop

but you said you stopped fukking with rap like it had gotten to the point where you couldn't understand nothing anymore lol,and rapgenius made you a fan again :dahell:

Heed Breed.
I'll just assume you're speaking for yourself here.

Assumption correct .

But do you really believe that you can decipher any song by a listen? As in you have the vast amount of knowledge to know exactly is being referenced, point of view of the song writer, experiences he/she has felt and why , etc.....

You mastered dictionary's, thesaurus , history books, religious books, movies, every rappers personal life, etc....

You the man ...

GTFOH !

Your a Coli supporter stay in ya lane.
