That sums up his whole career.


And that stanza is dope as hell. Saying he gave back to the community, saying he is a hustler so he gave the public what they wanted but at the same time spit about the same shit.Kids these days don't know shit then form an opinion.Oh and that shit right there by the way was considered by Kweli and Big Daddy Kane as one of the dopest lines ever in a song
