Gunplay is on the Brillant Idiots podcast this week and Memphis Bleek was on last week's Tax Season podcast. Both pro listens unless you're a cornball

Does Jay-Z still associate with Bleek or did he forget about him like he did Beans and all the other dudes he came up with?

Jay got Bleek selling his champagne. Bleek said he got tired of rap awhile back and asked Jay what he got for him next. He wanted to scout talent but Jay said do what he's doing now. Hes still with Jay but they're both grown men with different lifestyles. Hes hilarious as gently caress and doesn't run from questions. Even talks about the dips, dame, kanye, has.

Bleek's first 2 albums are low key classics. Bleek's durag-fitted combination was revolutionary.

I was listening to Reasonable Doubt the other day and became convinced that hov and bleek were definitely on the DL. Evidence:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzdsygJmDqs

quote:

[Intro: Jay-Z]
Come experience life as we know it
As some of you should know it
Place: Marcy, Brooklyn
Actions: Well, y'all know the actions

[Verse 1: Jay-Z]
I got this shorty on my block always clocking my rocks
He likes the style and profile I think he want to mock
He likes the way I walk, he see my money talking
To honeys hawking I'm the hottest nigga in New York and
I see his hunger pains, I know his blood boils
He want to run with me, I know this kid will be loyal
I watched him make a few ends, to cop his little sneakers and gear
Then it's just enough for re-up again
I see myself in his eyes, I moved from Levi's
To Guess to Versace, now it's diamonds like Liberace
That's just the natural cycle, nobody want to be like Michael
Where I'm from, just them niggas who bounced from a gun
We out here trying to make hard white into cold green
I can help shorty blow out like Afro-Sheen
Plus I can relive my days of youth which is gone
That little nigga's peeps, it's time to put him on

[Hook]
It's time to come up (Jay-Z)
And hold my own weight, defend my crown (Memphis Bleek)
Got to lock it down and when they rush (Jay-Z)
Stand my ground (Memphis Bleek)
It's time to come up (Jay-Z)
Stick up my chest, and make some loot (Memphis Bleek)
Got to lock it down and when they rush (Jay-Z)
Stand on my own two (Memphis Bleek)

[Verse 2: Memphis Bleek]
I'm out here slinging, bringing the drama, trying to come up
In the game and add a couple of dollar signs to my name
I'm out here serving, disturbing the peace, life could be better
Like my man reclined in plush leather seats
He's selling weight, I'm selling eight balls
Sixteen, trying to graduate to pushing quarters y'all
I ain't going to sweat him I'm a let him come to me
If he give me the nod then these niggas going to see
I'm tired of being out here round the clock
And breaking day, and chasing crack heads up the block for my pay
I'm staying fresh, so chickens check
I'm trying to step up to the next level, pushing Vettes through the 'jects
Diamonds reflect from the sun, directly in your equilibrium
And stunned I'm waiting for my day to come
I got the urge to splurge, I don't want a lifetime sentence
Just give me the word

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
Hey fella I been watching you clocking (Jay-Z)
Who me? Holding down this block it ain't nothing (Memphis Bleek)
You the man nigga, now stop fronting
Hahah I like your style (Jay-Z)
Nah, I like your style (Memphis Bleek)
Let's drive around awhile (Jay-Z)
Cool nigga (Memphis Bleek)
Here's a thou' (Jay-Z)
A G? I ride with you for free
I want the long-term riches and bitches (Memphis Bleek)
Have it all, now listen to me
You let them other niggas get the name, skip the fame
Ten thou' or a hundred G keep your poo poo the same (Jay-Z)
On the low? (Memphis Bleek)
Yeah, the only way to blow
You let your poo poo bubble quietly (Jay-Z)
And then you blow (Memphis Bleek)
Hey keep your cool
The only way to peep a fool is let him show his hand
Then you play your cards (Jay-Z)
Then he through dealing I understand (Memphis Bleek)
Don't blow your dough on hotties (Jay-Z)
The only thing I got in this world is my word and my nuts
And won't break them for nobody (Memphis Bleek)
Hah, I like your resume, pick a day, you can start (Jay-Z)
From now until death do us part nigga (Memphis Bleek)

[Hook 2X]

Why does every Compton review say this is Dre's final album? Did he flat out say that this would be his last one somewhere? Or are they just assuming with his release rate he'd have died of old age.

Be weary when you see oppression disguised as progression

The Spirit told me to use discernment and a Smith n Wesson at my discretion

Practice heavy self reflection, avoid self deception
If you lost, get re-direction

Memphis Bleek may have had all his verses written for him but his delivery and charisma were top notch and his first two albums were really low key great like Temple said.

They took it down almost everywhere else but at least you can get it if you like it

I gently caress with this track pretty heavy, it sounds like the Ghetto Quran era 50

And that 2 chainz mixtape is just fine, dude can for real read the menu at Wendy's and it would be dope.

Lmao do it for part 2 please

quote:

[Intro - Jay-Z]
Time to come up, hold my own weight, defend my crown
Gots to lock it down and when they rush -- part two

[Bleek] Cocaine whiter now
[Jay-Z] Operation is sweet
[Bleek] Whole game tighter now
[Jay-Z] Moving a brick a week
[Bleek] Plus a nigga prices down
[Jay-Z] We them niggas to see
[Bleek] Time to start the arising now
[Jay-Z] I don't know what's wrong with Bleek

[Verse 1 - Jay-Z]
It seems I'm like Keenan, picking up on the vibe
That he ain't too happy, I could just see it in his eyes
I don't know if it's the chicks or how we dividing the loot
Time to pay his rear end a visit 'fore he decide to get cute
Jumped out like a star with the flavest car
Matching the gator shirt, softer than my next door neighbors
These young niggas think I fell out the loop
Cause the last time they seen me hopping out the Coupe
I hopped out in a suit

[Memphis Bleek]
Look at this nigga Jay fronting, trying to take my shine
I didn't say this verbally, just had some poo poo on my mind
Plus I'm puffin like an ounce more than I used to puff
Taking advice from these niggas but they ain't used to stuff
They had me thinking, "poo poo, I'm the one that moved the stuff
While he drive around town in brand new Coupes and stuff"
Swear to God, they had me practically hating his guts
As he approached I spoke, "Jigga, whattup?"

[Hook - Memphis Bleek]
I done came up, put my life on the line
Soaked the game up, now it's my time to shine
Time to change up, no more second-in-line
Nine-eight, these streets is mine

[Verse 2 - Jay-Z]
Look at that fake smile he just gave me, it's breaking my heart
Should I school him or pull the tools out and just break him apart?
I felt his hatred it was harsh -- 'fore this faking poo poo start
I should take him in back of the building and blaze him

[Memphis Bleek]
Uh-oh, this nigga Jay, he ain't slow, he musta picked up on the vibe
That had I not been so high, I woulda been able to hide
Tried to cover up myself, as I gave him a five
Hugged him as if I loved him

[Jay-Z]
To the naked eye
It woulda seemed we was the closest, but those that know us
Could see that something was about to go down

[Memphis Bleek]
Stay focused
I'm trying to concentrate, but it's like he's reading my mind
As if he can see through this fog and all this weed in my mind
Could he see I had plans on, being the man
Ever since we first spoke and he put that G in my hand
And I gave it back to show him, I was down for the cause
As he approached ("Whattup Bleek?") and I paused

[Hook]

[Jay-Z]
You done came up, put your life on the line
Soaked the game up, now it's your time to shine
Time to change up, no more second-in-line
[Memphis Bleek]
Nine-eight, these streets is mine

[Verse 3 - Jay-Z]
Right, yo we wild out in Vegas, styled on haters
Mouthed off at the cops, outta cranberry drops
Copped whips the same color, we tighter than brothers
With different fathers but same mothers, this life don't love us
So til death do us, I'm never breaking my bond
Nigga we Lex movers, V-12 pushers

[Memphis Bleek]
As I stand
One leg of my pants up, in a stance like, "And what?"
I know these niggas are feeding my mind cancer
But in time's the answer
Seems mind-blowing, this weed and Hennesey
Got my mind going, trust me nigga, I'm knowing
Chicks used to ignore me, and my aunt saying I need 50
Not 60/40

[Jay-Z]
Oh God, don't let him control y'all
Your gun is my gun, your clip is my clip, baby

[Memphis Bleek]
Your fun is my fun, your bitch is my bitch
Any nigga trying to harm Jay, I'm feeling for you
I ain't only touching you, I'm killing your crew

[Jay-Z]
Give it a year, you'll be sitting on a million or two
Records sold nigga, perfect your role

[Hook]

[Outro - Jay-Z]
Yeah, you done came up, put your life on the line
Soaked the game up, now it's your time to shine
Time to change up, no more second-in-line

I'm a lurker here but yea it's pretty good. I feel like some people who don't know poo poo about NWA will think it's Boyz N The Hood 2 and will be bored when they find out it's not. But it's really interesting and gives a good look into the rise and fall of the group, even if that involves some slow points along the way (drama over money and contracts and such). It sort of reminded me of The Temptations only not 4 hours long.
