Love the song. But Why You Hate the Game is a better collab with both Nas & Game and worthy of epic status

don't think I've listened to this song since the year that album came out.

Nas and Game always made for good collabos, hopefully they'll do some more in the future. This one though might be the best out of all of them imo.

no thanks.. Nas can stay away from that fanook.
Game and his struggle bars should only be for his fans in Ireland and Norway.

m3h honestly A for effort, but something sounded like it was missing or too forced....

I think Why you hate the game is better..

I do like the message they're trying to convey in letter to the king though :hmm:

The word ******, is nothin' like nikka
Don't sound shyt alike - like Game, like Jigga
One came before the other, like aim and pull the trigga
One is slang for my brother, one is hang and take a picture

The rope ain't tight enough, he still alive, go fix it
Pour some gasoline on him, call his daughters black bytches
Make 'em pick cotton, while they mama cleanin' up the kitchen
Same cotton in white T's, that's the cotton they was pickin'
If Dr. King marched today would Bill Gates march?
I know Obama would but would Hilary take part?
Great minds think great thoughts

The pictures I paint, make the Mona Lisa look like fake art
I feel the pain of Nelson Mandela
Cause when it rains it pours, I need Rihanna's "Umbrella"

for Coretta Scott's tear drops, when she got the phone call
that the future just took a fukkin' head shot...
I wonder why Jesse Jackson ain't catch him before his body dropped
Would he give me the answer? Probably not..."
- Game

Sometimes Game has a great verse and I be vibing to that shyt and he'll just mess the Whole verse up with some random name-drop and say shyt like

"I feel the pain of, Nelson mendela :to:
Cause when it rains it pours, I need Rihanna's umbrella" :rudy:

I just don't get that shyt



Still love the song tho..

Nas always goes in on these soul samples :ahh:
