I’m doing interviews and ‘dressin’ all these critics/tryna underrate me/sayin’ I ain’t got no lyrics…

No need to take our word for it. The people do have ears Mr. Tell ‘Em. This is track #14 on your freshly minted brick, so attempts of disassociating it from the album are only futile at this point.

Unbeknownst to most of the public however, there was a video he posted from his YouTube channel where he took back his stance on being a role model with a series of curse words and goo-goo ga-ga’s. It lasted a whooping 20 minutes but the impact it made is everlasting.
