He's not really saying s*** other than the chorus. Yes the verses are well crafted but not even close to his best
This track is when he separated himself lyrically from his peers officially
Every time I stumble across this track again I need to rewind it at least a couple times. The bag Lupe gets in on these verses is just pure magic

Am I crazy for thinking if Lupe came along a few years later he would’ve been so much bigger than he was? I feel like he was really the archetype for the blog era backpack rapper but he was just kind of mushed in between the transition era
Maybe if he didn’t sign to Atlantic (notorious for f***ing s*** up) thing would’ve been different
Always loved this song tho
or foreplay less s***is
which means I’m headless
with no neck left to hang a chain with
Which makes me necklace-less like a necklace theft

Which makes me necklace-less like a necklace theft
