Tears of nostalgia bruh. I used be hooked on this banger in the summer of 2008 when i was in high school. Me and my friends would listen to this on our Walkman Sony Ericson phones on our way to school. 15 years later and it still an absolute banger. You'd have to be alive during this era of hip hop to know how special it was. Words won't do justice.
50 should've let Game do his thing even though he helped him on the Doc and let him breathe and could've still collaborated even if he left G unit for music purposes. They made good songs and probably would've made more hits, he didn't need to be attached but could've just kept it for collaboration and creativity purposes.
The problem is we have grown older and we don't support the artists we use to listen when we younger,them younger cats will do the same when they get older ,we listening to these artists on social media but we never buy a cd or buy from other platforms to support them ,How can The Game only sell 28 thousand copies in the first week of release of Drillmatic when his got millions of fan's, we letting these cats down hey
I really miss the hood man. No I'm not talking anyhting from the crime perspective , I'm talking the hood summers.. Waking up Pops cookn breakfast on weekends, go outside playn Cow an street basketball. Playing Rough n Tumble , hearing yo mom yell at you telling you to come in the house before streetlights come on. Watching Hood Movies , having Madden Tournaments. Seem like life was so much better in the 2000s before the time everyone is too lazy to do anything but sit on there smartphone all day.. An Lil League football man every saturday... Gawwwwd. Walkin to the store buyn the same thing every day Hot Cheetos , Those liter hug jug juices an iced honey buns... Walking to Grandma House. Life was too good. And lastly hearing this song blasting in your moms car every time we went out.. Miss the love from the hood man and this song brought me back to realize how great things use to be.
Listening to this track again made me realize that the biggest thing missing from Hip Hop today is respect for the artists that came before these these fools that are being played on the radio today. New artists rather trash on the past rather than pay respects.
Right! As a preteen at the time I didn’t fully understand what they did w/ this track. But now that I’m older, this song hits different. You got to appreciate the ones who came before you💪🏾
See, Mary J. I want you to understand you paved the way (for me), I'm givin' homage (to you) - I just can't get enough of this recognition. Keyshia is real❤✌💯
So eerie seeing Nipsey in this. I remember when this song came out and the world still didn't know Nipsey like that yet. Hussle n the house came out a year later. This came out in 08.
Game gave the west coast mouth to mouth. Still touring, still dropping beats, songs, starting his own label. 50 was wrong if he thought this guy would have a one hit cd, and be gone. Love from Geffen/Interscope always game
Unlike most rappers who compare themselves to others or say they're better than them. I'm looking at you, Kodak. He had the nerve to say he was better than Tupac. I don't remember Tupac mumbling in any of his songs.
I've been a Game fan for the past 16-17 years, and saw this video when it first dropped 12 years ago --- viewed it, at least 3 million times, over the years. How in the fuck did I miss Nip's cameo appearance?
I remember when this song came out .. that was that time when The Game was the most hyped Rapper in 2008 , my life , lax files , he was unstoppable , he was so full of fire .. miss these days
The Game and Lil Wayne we’re really runnin shi in 2008, I was 4-5 years old at that time, but I remember it all so well:’) If I’m not wrong, I think this was the time G-Unit had fell off, they weren’t moving the units Lil Wayne and Game were selling at the time
@@ghostballs1874 from 2004-2008, The Game was very hyped up, he still made some good albums after that timeline though, 1992, Born 2 Rap and Jesus Piece are also some other classic albums he made afterwards
Keyshia Cole brought powerful vocals to this song!.... She did right to mention Mary J. But, I like that fact that The Game mentions New Edition and Tony Toni Tone!
Man rap music these days is only showcasing how much money a person has, miss this kind of music. Hopefully the documentary2 will be banging. Like this if you miss this era of hip hop
This is what I am talking about.Artiste nowadays have issues with the people who came before them and paved the way for them to have a career. I love that this song shows respect to the ones who came before and made it easier for the newer artists to break through
This whole song is about homage. Nobody does that better than Game. He always shows respect. Which is why Big Daddy Kane, Raekwon and Ice Cube is in the video.
I never forget the people I love and respect! I don’t care what or who you are! I show love. Sometimes I might have a keen sense of humor doing it . But so does God!
I know this may be a little off topic, but when you look at 0:28 its crazy to see how fast technology has developed, almost too fast. I remember when the iPhone came out and not everyone had it, and now most people seem to have it.
Game really loved Nipsey. The line " girls on my hip like a skytel pager" shows the song is beyond a tribute to rappers before him... It's a tribute to the enter era before him.
This song is so underrated!!!! Absolute classic
u very correct
🔥🔥🔥
not to mention it was like 80 eurocent for icecream scoop, its 2.20 now lmfao

I can honestly say 50 was hella wrong thinking Game wouldn't last, Homie aged like fine wine Salute! Yall see Young Nipsey coolin out💯

I always have tremendous respect for men that acknowledge the men that came before them in every field of life.
This and "Hate It or Love It" are my fave Game jawns
Game slayed this lyrically and deliverance such a sick beat and keyshia's voice fits this so well
