Learned the power of words when we was younger
Saying fukk the sign on his curb can make him hunt you
Turned the African into a ****** then they hung him
Said it earlier in the verse, sometimes I wonder
Who the activist and who Devils advocate
Or do it matter? shyt
They only fukking with the rapper if the rapper rich
Or got a platinum hit
A chain or two
Seem the music interchangeable
Raging bull, what you headed for?
Heaven doors, or hell below
I write directions for the road to let you know
Edgar Allen Poe
Tried to warn 'em of demise and all he seen was crows
Feel for 'em, words, we kill for 'em
Leave the bytchin' to the birds, we still war'n
Born ready, you boys lost already
All in 'til the lord get me

:whew:

Nobody told them to like it. shyt's sad

Actually it's getting crazy good reviews, just as his previous two projects have. Vince is a critical darling.

EP is dope. I get why traditional rap fans - be they trap babies or dust heads or anything in between - are turned off by Vince now. The production wave he's on doesn't really fit into any carefully crafted corner of modern hip hop. There's an interesting amalgam of electronic shyt, 808s, live instruments, etc. And his flow is acrobatic enough to take advantage of it.

Also can we talk about DJ Dahi brehs? Dude is killing it right now. I remember reading Kendrick was working with him before TPAB morphed into a jazzier record. I wonder what the shyt they did sounds like, damn. Dahi called it tribal or something. Interesting.

Good to hear because this shyt is knocking. Is he pressing this up on a disc? Gotta toss him some dollars for this

Ive seen so much hate the past week or so on the production Vince uses and I don't get it :mindblown:

The sound on this and Summertime 06 reminds of the Neptunes meet MIA.. it's like an updated or heavily influenced Neptunes sound. It's nice.

Saw someone said he should rap over a Mustard beat and I wanted to throw my phone out the damn window
