No matter how many times I listen to this song, I still get chills. Makes me think about summer of 2012, crazy times. one of the best rap songs of the last decade tbh.I swear listening to it feels like watching a movie.

Wheres part 1?, that part is a bop "Smokin' on the finest dope, ay-ay-ay-ah
Drank until I can't no mo', ay-ay-ay-ah
Really I'm a sober soul
But I'm with the homies right now"

Anywys, I agree, one of the most relatable tracks of all time for me as a guy from BK and being the calm peacemaker around my people

the atmosphere of this song is crazy

classic

The intro, the storytelling, the ending, the beat

wish the first half was a full song. the bass>>>

that opening piano gets me every f***ing time
ONE DAY IT'S GON BURN YOU OUT ONEE DAY that subtle af whispery "buuurn you out background vocal" at 0.58-1.00 i used to listen to the intro on a loop for an whole hour or so. it's just so beautiful

JMSN had so many great contributions to that album

What an incredible song bro. That bass

GKMC top 2 rap album OAT

fire

I remember when the demo leaked before the album, on KTT

And this is the art of peer pressure this is the art of peer pressure I had the song few months before it leaked

Good old days

an absolute masterpiece

between this and sing about me for the best song on the project

but they made a right
they made a left then made a right
then another right
one lucky night with the homies

Best track on gkmc

This and Black Boy Fly are probaly my top 5 favorite Kendrick songs

the subtle switch up from the "left, right, circling life" part to "they made a right THEN another right" and what it does for the story

Probably wouldn't be my top half of favorites on GKMC but still a classic

Thank you! Black Boy Fly is my favorite Kendrick song hands down!!! Way too overlooked!!!

lets go fullblown GKMC appreciation fam
one of my favs right here

Damn y’all gon really make me play gkmc again for the millionth time. F*** you guys.

intro is too f***ing good and a classic rap storytelling masterpiece follows what a song

This really takes you through the Compton streets in a very tasteful and artistic way with that street edge mixed in
