Yo I know this is ended up as Analyze This to some, but the OG was on a Clue tape before Shaq's Can't Stop The Reign album dropped. It had all the dudes no verses excluded, but when CSTR dropped the album didn't have Nas. shyt's piff, over production from the Soul Brother # 1 Y'all think this track going through properly could have prevented the Nas/Jay beef, also, does anyone have this joint in CDQ with no Clue tags?

I spend nights on corners, see the crack, cop my first Mac
No longer scared to pump what y'all pump, now I burst back
It hurts that, don't seem C.R.E.A.M can make my purse fat
Without the benefits of a doubt, I hit the hearst black
But curse that, tryin to see Nas was your worst match
Blowin like Tahitii, throw off NYPD
Am I greedy? Like Amin Idi see me
In a fly Salinii gimme frames and the beanie
I flip my loot twice a week on the most trifest streets
You got no right to eat by the laws of life you keep
Ain't no love lost, none taken, none givin'
Stressin how I'm livin it, thinkin when my loot first came
Look what I did with it, bought my click glaciers
And pagers, rollin ten deep to Las Vegas
Copped a live croc, chopped it up, hit my block off
Wit gators, feedin peoples, from the bridge to Dequatas
But now, two years five months and 30 days later
I still put out the street flavor

But watch that kid right there, a bulge in his night wear
Awoke me up the ways I used to be in my heist years
Bubble eye small fry loaded four five
Just thirstin for some person with shine to just walk by
Now that I can see the 360, now that its me thats jiggy
Them cooly heads they wanna stick me, whoa

Nas lit this shyt up something serious. I always used this song to highlight the difference between him and Jay in that time frame.
Nas washed Jay-Z somehting awful. It's like Jay didn't even know he was going to be on a track with a top 3 rapper of the era, and layed a verse like his only comp was Shaquille O'neal

Where did you copy these lyrics from? :russ:
What is Dequatas? :mjlol: I'm pretty sure The Bridge to Decatur (GA) is what he's saying

You can tell that they weren’t in the studio together and the track is pieced together. Still tho, I always liked jay’s verse better. Nas’s verse is more “lyrical” but I never believed his dope boy/stick up kid raps. Jay always came across more authentic to me.
