jay z

"Your booty is heavy duty like diarrhea"

Why is this a question in the year of 2020?

Jay-Z
better ear for production
also has grown as an artist
not necessarily saying his most is more quality as he has gotten older but the music he makes now fits with his age.
em's lyrical subject matter/attitude has kinda stayed the same

please tell me this isnt a real line

it is

Marcy me
Streets is my artery, the vein of my existence
I'm the Gotham City heartbeat
I started in lobbies now, parley with Saudis
Sufi to the goofies I could probably speak Farsi
That's poetry read a coca leaf from my past
Came through the bushes smelling like roses I need a trophy just for that
Old Brooklyn not this new s***, s*** feel like a spoof
Fat laces in your shoe I'm talking busting off the roof
Hold a uzi vertical, let the thing smoke
Y'all flirting with death, I be winking through the scope

Water or dehydration

LMFAOOO
