That boy Lil Wayne got a deep soul, No rapper has that talent like Wayne. He's so universal, u can hear the pain, violence, struggle in is mind n his heart, you can see into his mind on this one.
the first verse is legendary for its word play the second verse had a legendary bridge with excellent lyricism the third demonstrates Lil Wayne is the best rapper alive
This ain't shit. Imagine being in third grade in the cafeteria line like "Just tryna buy me some time then I remembered this magic trick Duh-dah-duh-dah-duh-duh! Go-go gadget dick! Whipped that shit out, and ain't no doubt about it It hit the ground and caused an earthquake and power outage" Eminem is what I was on as a child lol. You lucked out
I’m here in 2022, I’ve had this song in my head for 15 yrs. I always thought I was losing my mind when it was taken off the album. I was like was it really on there or was I’m tripping.? Lol. Anyways glad I found it. The bar and you know what they say?…. When you great… it’s not murder… it’s assisinate! It’s a powerful bar and has been engrained in my mind. I am now going to eBay to buy the original cd. I have almost every lil Wayne cd.!! He’s the goat to me!
fr bro, I got the album for christmas when I was a kid, obviously I didnt take care of it. fast forward bought it when I was grown and thought I was trippin too. imma have to go to ebay aswell
This got 6 Milli views it ain’t slept on lol the carter 3 is one of his most iconic albums, all his new shit be slept on kuz the new generation don’t like to listen to lyrical music that’s why he be dumbing it down for them so he can stay Relevant
@@NotaPro999 Abcko (the record label for the Rolling Stones) sued Lil Wayne because they thought Playing With Fire is too similar to the Rolling Stones song Play With Fire.
Finally someone got it. He just following what rap is through time. Though I do think he should have stuck to his old style. Even though he didn't, I still respect him 💯

@@russell9411 u crazy bro. What about his mixtapes sftw2 and decication 6. And his singles he released like hercules offx3 quasimodo etc. Way better than carter 4 imo
@@frankedgerson1195 well that song along with so many others were leaked hella early. I didn't mind him addimg a verse from the Carter III that never came to be.
This was honestly the best track on Tha Carter III which was a legendary album. They need to reclaim the rights and put it back on the official track list. Tha Carter III is one of my top 10 favorite albums ever. WITH THIS SONG.
Doubt they can, ABKCO is infamously stingy, and their founder Allen was basically a monster and was one of, if not, the biggest reason that The Beatles broke up.
It’s 2018 a day after the release of C5.. going back listening to all the carters.. so many gems.. and damn this came on.. just insane. Wayne is the greatest alive just off his catalogue along, but damn I miss this Wayne
Ramon Concepcion if we being real and objective lil Wayne is the greatest rapper ever period. He to versatile any genre, bars and metaphors and wordplay is unmatched.
Nobody raps like this? Clearly you don’t follow modern rap lol, which you shouldn’t be saying if you don’t know modern rappers. Joey badass, lupe fiasco, earl sweatshirt, Kendrick, JID are all on Wayne’s level lyrically. More I could come up with for sure
Betty Wright sure did expand her horizons from rap to rock to soul to pop from starting from gospel roots a baby at 3 to a kid teen at 12 doing grown people things. She is definitely eclectic in the music industry and I never expected her to get that broad in her music. Props to the great #Betty and her diversity in music. Rest in peace #Sistah.
When this song gotten removed from the original album release, I was so hurt he couldn’t get the sample cleared. Probably one of the best songs from The Carter III. Everything about this song was absolutely perfection, from Betty Wright’s background vocals, the production, the lyrics to the beat.
2024 and I’m now finding out that they replaced this song, and I’m even more upset because I used to have the DISC with the original song. I had this song for 10+ years and didn’t understand why it wasn’t on Spotify or Apple Music
I've been telling people these are his best lines and this is his best song forever! Love this song and these lines. Wayne takes it to another level here. Never heard another rapper rap like this.
Not me when i was a literal child in a car seat asking my mom to bump "the set the stage on fire song" (she had an og carter lll album w this still on it🔥🔥)
2008 was really a special year cause C3 dropped officially the day I graduated high school walked the big stage & all but I remember having that burned copy of “Tha Carter III” EVERYBODY had that album at that time
Bro I used to listen to this song in the car all the time when I was young and used to listen Wayne all the time but by far my favorite songs besides hello - by lil Wayne
The fact this song got removed from the album and I still know it word for word 15 years later is crazy

I just did the same thing because I was talking with my homeboy earlier today and looked on tidal and it wasn’t on there. Thanks for the copy.
The 3rd verse in this song is one of Wayne’s best of all time
Agreed
It was originally from “World Of Fantasy” from the C3 sessions or Drought is Over 2
That boy Lil Wayne got a deep soul, No rapper has that talent like Wayne. He's so universal, u can hear the pain, violence, struggle in is mind n his heart, you can see into his mind on this one.

jay buttet true he talks money now but you gotta admit he was deep about his lyrics back then from 2008 and behind
People forget or dont know about songs like this from Wayne. Hustler Muzic and Get Over from The Carter 2 always get me really contemplative. lol.
