    “First nigga with a Benz and a packpack”
    And even though it was irresponsible broke niggas don’t have 25k to blow on materials

    I’m not saying he was flex rapping but I don’t feel like he was tryna act like he was broke; a lot of times when he would rap about being broke it’d be from someone elses perspective like We Don’t Care or past tense

    of course it was past tense he had already been working with the Roc for years by that point (which makes the final track Last Call that much more amazing)

    the album had nuance in that yes, he was on his flexing better than you s*** but he also had family business, spaceship, we don't care, never let me down (in fact, we was so differently wired that BACK THEN the conversation was how off putting Jay Z's verse was), and through the wire.

    imagine twitter threads woulda called that whole last few minutes of last call "glazing"

    Sure around CD he had an advance and he never grew up broke but TBH I read Chuck’s Tweet as: the association of dropping out of college (tunnel-visioned on making it in rap over expanding your knowledge and creating a safety net) is broke mentality

    But your point is about how Ye isn’t necessarily broke on CD which I think is true

    LR was definitely when he started to blow up frfr.

    I just got memories attached to CD when I was living in Orlando with moms and she copped it. Those skits were some of the funniest s***s ever.

    Kanye came out when 95% of the mainstream rappers were gangsta rappers

    Even in his doc, it showed that Roc-A-Fella didn’t want to get behind him cuz he didn’t fit their image

    All it takes is one rapper to drop a classic and everything will shift

    It's cause none of these lyrical rappers are cool. Which one of the lyrical rappers in today's rap climate would you actually want to BE?

    Back then lyrical rappers were cool as f***, nowadays they're just nerds who you definitely wouldn't want to be or be friends with
