normally some s*** like this would probably sound corny as hell but damn bruh this actually does a good ass job. also hats off to whoever edited all those clips together for the video, had to have taken a long ass time

it’s crazy how much of an influence this show had over the genre. glad I finally watched it and now understand all those references in people’s music, most specifically Push’s album My Name Is My Name

Are these from the DVD?

AR AB raps are about this but he's the only character

now that you say that, it’s gotta be. the way it’s edited is definitely not what you woulda seen on YouTube 13 years ago when it was first posted, it’s tv studio quality. plus this was uploaded in 2009 right around the time when the last season would’ve been released on dvd

sound awfully corny

it is

ban @op for littering trash around and for lock thread for spreading misinformation

best way to do this type of theme was Lupe’s double burger with cheese

This did a great summary tbh

Top 3 show oat for me along w The Sopranos and Atlanta

greatest tv show of all time

have u even see the wire

this isn’t peaky blinders bloke

Skillz the wrapup king

obviously

tf that gotta do with anything

don’t be daft

i’m just taking the piss

bro have you even seen the show? this is fantastic storytelling for a song and does a perfect job

don’t understand how this can be corny unless you just dislike this style of hip hop

he’s from the uk don’t mind him

aren’t u bloody knackered right now

forreal lmao

even if someone hasn’t seen The Wire and listens to this, it’s still excellent storytelling

This song isn't corny, cool share

"what's crazy it all started over a stained glass window"

s*** just lame. plot points beat by beat who wants this​

checks thread

tea kettle noise intensifies

I mean yeah, that’s exactly what started season 2’s story. the police union and stevedore union were battling over whose stain glass window would be installed in a big church, leading to the police chief getting revenge by jamming the stevedore boss up and finding out how they have so much money to afford a big stained glass window, and then that leads to the police finding out the stevedores are trafficking illegal s*** for money.

so the whole story was literally started over a stained glass window. the whole show is about something small rippling into something big. I don’t see the problem with that lyric lol

wait why tf am I even explaining this to you, s***s not gonna change your mind lol

dude even replied with an emoji from the show itself lmao

Wait there are only 4 seasons of The Wire

nigga the wire is my 1b. look before writing an essay.

i think in this track the writing is clunky and boring. if this a1 storytelling to you then yikes. God forbid someone have a different opinion
