Fun fact: When Kendrick says "in a minute he gon say that he love her" a minute into the verse he says (in character) "tell me who loves you, I bet I love harder.
Also called Mona Lisa bc throughout history, in the art world, everyone has wondered what Mona Lisa's "secret" is. They say her slight smile in the piece means she's hiding something. SO GOOD.
@username7234 in terms of storytelling, honestly can't think of any of the top of my head. but i can still give you a few suggestions. right above it, she will, mahogany, uproar, comfortable, let the beat build, best rapper alive, receipt, go dj...i could go on, but these are some of *my* favorites.
This track is so fire in every way, but I feel like everyone misses the aspect of the Mona Lisa metaphor that makes it a quadruple-entendre, which is the fact that the girl (Liz a.k.a. Mona Lisa) is actually the mastermind playing everyone else - which links right back to the actual Mona Lisa painting and her unreadable facial expression.
Listen, Recovery is amazing I'm not denying that. But MMLP and The Eminem Show are two of the greatest albums of all time. You guys gotta react to more songs from those albums. Love this channel
They need to review the whole damn albums. You don’t appreciate it if you listen from start to finish. Albums were actually made in completion not just for singles.
@@warlord2171 there were way better albums released that year by other artists , okay maybe music to be murdered wasn't that bad. But it's still nothing compared to Eminem early albums such as the mmlp or Eminem show.
Btw “Mona Lisa” is subliminal because it’s meant to mean a deceiving woman. It comes from the fact that the picture of Mona Lisa was started with the face of a woman, but because the artist couldn’t finish the painting in that time with the same woman, he had to use a male model to complete it. So the Mona Lisa painting is famous because it’s literally half a woman’s face and half a man’s face, hence the smirk.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard a rapper tell a story so flawlessly without compromising on the flow and the bars. Wayne could have been rapping about absolutely anything and still would’ve sounded good. But he painted a full picture
@@itsyoungamazing1610 can we not talk about Eminem for once? I'm very familiar with Em's entire catalogue. When Em tells a story it is flawless lyricism and story telling. But if you aren't listening to what he is saying it doesn't hit the same. Wayne managed to do both on this song which is very rare. Eminem actually agrees with me. He said the same thing about Wayne's verse and called it the verse of the year
Im so proud of you boys listening to the Goat Wayne… however… I’ve heard No NAS… I need y’all to listen to NAS - Rewind… that will get y’all on another level. And one more Wayne … actually two, Wayne - Best of Me Freestyle … and Wayne Bonnie and clyde freestyle… THANK ME LATER
@@anidea5646 i'm not discrediting wayne, him and em are my two favorite rappers. i'm just pointing out why so many young people can't appreciate em to the fullest.
Eminem has never spit a bar I don't understand. Wayne is light years ahead of Eminem, I stopped comparing them along time ago. Eminem is at the level of good battle rappers. Wayne is inhuman, it's levels to it.
This is weird. This track has been going through my head for days. I thought it was fire but it didn't blow like I thought it would. Great story telling.
Lil Wayne "Big bad Wolf" he goes in for almost three and a half straight minutes..No Auto Tunes. He just spits and reminds those who forgot he's top-tier level
Ok and now you guys need to do a full album. Eminem first 3 albums are classics and you can’t compare to any Wayne mixtape, except maybe Da Drought 3. Also check out Westside Boogie freestyle. He’s signed to Eminem
I hope you guys react to Em being inducted to the Rock and Roll hall of fame 😊 This is classic. One of my favorite Lil Wayne songs is 6 Foot 7 Foot because “bitch real g’s move in silence like lasagna” is my favorite lyric of all time possibly
You guys are probably a little too young to catch this bar "Watch your mouth, Milli Vanilli" They were a hip-hop duo in the 80s However, in 1990, it was revealed that Milli Vanilli had not actually sung any of their songs. It was later revealed that the group’s vocals had been performed by session singers. As a result, the duo was forced to relinquish their Grammy Awards lol
A few references i wish that wouldve been caught, for instance the milli vanilli bar, and one is so simple but goes so hard is the "they started french kissing so they didn't see muah"
The point about painting a picture in your head as he lays down the beats is a good take but I also think he used Mono Lisa because the picture is famous for her smile and the fact that no matter where you look at the painting her eyes seem to be looking at you. I think this is meant to symbolize the power of a woman's beauty to seduce a man into making silly mistakes which is key in the story he is telling.
If ya’ll like story telling. Listen to more NaS. Specifically “Rewind”, “Blaze A 50”, “I gave you power” and “Shoot ‘em up”. 4 of the greatest story songs. 🔥
The title is actually a double entendre: 1) Waybe is painting a picture. 2) It is debated where the Mona Lisa is smiling or not in the painting, she is painted with an almost deceptive look like the girl they're rapping about.
What’s it gone be - Busta Rhymes Thugs devotion - Mo Thugs Dayz of our lives - BTNH Hay - Crucial Conflict G-Dep, Diddy, Black Rob - Let’s Get It Black Rob - Woah These are classic songs you guys should react to
The painting Mona Lisa have a crazy history... it's famous for being stolen from the lourve art museum in Paris, 1913... It's also rumored the painting started as several different things more of a practice canvas for DaVinci's apprentice's ( which includes Raphael, these are NOT NIJIA TURTLES FYI) The most valued truth for art historians is 1.)DaVinci was drawing a self-portrait of himself as a woman Leonardo's DaVinci... and that's why is mesmerizing cause of the recognition of DaVinci behind the woman!!! 2.) second most likely was Leonardo DaVinci started a portrait of a woman and one of his apprentice's finish the "sketch" of the woman and then painted it... ITS ONLY 8x10 (ish) the size a notebook page... OVERATED PAINTING HOWEVER THE SONG MONA LISA IS ONE OF THE BEST WORKS OF ART THAT HAS COME FROM HER WEIRD FALLING EYES... creepy SO DA VINCI HAS CLAIMED THE WORK DO TO ITS FOUND NOTORIETY AFTER THE FRENCH STOLE IT FROM THE ITALIANS IN YHR FRENCH REVOLUTION
You gotta do "12 Minute Freestyle " by Eminem and Royce Da 5'9"!! This is back when Em very first came out and he would actually throw in some street stuff in his rhymes. I PROMISE, IF YOU LISTEN TO THE FIRST 30 SECONDS, YOU WILL KNOW THAT THIS WILL BE THE HARDEST FREESTYLE YOU WILL EVER HEAR!!
I just want to give y'all a list to react to if you have a chance *Grand Master Flash & The Furious 5: The Message *Kool G Rap & DJ Pollo: Men at Work *Eric B & Rakim: Lyrics of Fury *Eric B & Rakim: Mahogany *Scarface: who do you believe in *O.C.: Times up *Geto Boys: minds playing tricks on me *Eazy E: Boyz in the Hood *Beastie Boys: Paul Revere *Intelligent Hoodlum: Arrest the President *Grand Puba: 360 *Nate Dogg: I got love *Outkast: Bombs over Baghdad ** I'll stop there. Just a very small list to widen your listening of different types of Hip-Hop
recovery isnt even top 3 in eminem's discography eminem's best albums are better than wayne's best albums yall just don't know about the mmlp era like that
The best part is when Wayne called her phone in front of Kendrick, the ringtone was Lollipop! 🤣😅
"He on yo fuckin ringtoone".?!
Long hair don’t care, she handle her business & don’t have a tell…. Boom
Liollipop is now diamond song 💯🔥🐐
That part was also an homage to Cole’s tko verse
Fun fact: When Kendrick says "in a minute he gon say that he love her" a minute into the verse he says (in character) "tell me who loves you, I bet I love harder.
S/o dissect
Someone saw a short that popped in their feed 😂😂😂
@@TheChronicMan yo u can’t out a brother like that 🤣🤣
💀
My favorite fact! Shit 🔥🔥🔥
They both snapped. Kendrick spoke as the mark and as the wolf, that's tough.
Also called Mona Lisa bc throughout history, in the art world, everyone has wondered what Mona Lisa's "secret" is. They say her slight smile in the piece means she's hiding something. SO GOOD.
Might be the greatest Wayne song off the story telling alone.
He’s got countless greats so I personally wouldn’t ranked this one as his best one, but it’s by far his best storytelling song🔥🔥
@@hbathletictraining my guy, can you recommend some songs of Wayne's? Ngl this mona lisa is soo catchy, wanna listen to sum more wayne type shit
@username7234 in terms of storytelling, honestly can't think of any of the top of my head. but i can still give you a few suggestions.
right above it, she will, mahogany, uproar, comfortable, let the beat build, best rapper alive, receipt, go dj...i could go on, but these are some of *my* favorites.
Agreed bro waynes best song imo
@@Spoonkid222NY State of Mind by Nas in the Illmatic Album is good. Same with Kiesha’s Song by Kendrick Lamar
Wayne literally is incredible. Especially when he's allowed to just flow
Lil Wayne is quite literally one of the most incredible rappers to ever hit the scene..just so sick. Everything he spits is fire. 💜💜
Carpet 3 was and is his best work shit after pretty much
@@carlfustin7522 i love carter 3 but carter 4 slept on
@@carlfustin7522sorry I know it was probably autocorrect but Carpet 3 has me ctfu 😂😂😂
Put some respect on the GOATs name, KENDRICK LAMAR.
One of my top Wayne songs since Carter 2 can’t hear it enough times.
Wayne flexed his storytelling abilities on a Biggie Smalls level 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 fire song period!

In my opinion there are many better story telling Rappers then both of them
@@GIjoe614 definitely, but I've never heard anyone sound as cool as Wayne does while still being coherent and compelling

I love your response and the reaction Lil Wayne ft Kendrick mona lisa
This is his most underrated sung ever i switched my game from the Carter 2 to Master finesse because of the goat
This is in my top 5 Wayne songs.
It's rap story telling at it's finest.
Phew... So goddamn good

I’m a huge Stan but Wayne is the GOAT.
It's a shame they didn't collab more
Em is way better

Here's thought Lil Wayne and Eminem both Goats 🐐 🇺🇸
LIZ THATS ENOUGH... YOU CAN PUT UR HANDS DOWN!!!😂
Who’s here in 2024 after “Not like Us” Euphoria Meet the Grams Like Dat Era”😊
SHE WILL LIL WAYNE FT DRAKE is straight fire. Need to catch all those bars.
I've been waiting for y'all to do this one 😎
Dont make it a versus guys, it hurts my brain, I love and Wayne and Em both equally.
“Fake smile” is why it’s called Mona Lisa
I saw in all of your eyes that you second thought your own life listening to this song. Best reaction for sure!
Wayne is my all time go to!!!
When I am landscaping A Milli is my startup song!! 😅 Never fails but man I can get woke up and kick ass....
Lil Wayne big bad wolf off dedication 6 might be his best bar song ever
That one and "thought it was a drought" get on every playlist I make
Lil Wayne "Big bad Wolf" he goes in for almost three and a half straight minutes..No Auto Tunes. He just spits and reminds those who forgot he's top-tier level
I f*ing love this song 👏👏👏
Been waiting for this one!!! 🎉🔥🔥😈😈
Would love to see you guys react to Lil Wayne - The Mobb, off the Carter II album. One of, if not his best pure bar for bar songs.
Also, his live performance called “Glory” at the espy’s is insane.
Ok and now you guys need to do a full album. Eminem first 3 albums are classics and you can’t compare to any Wayne mixtape, except maybe Da Drought 3. Also check out Westside Boogie freestyle. He’s signed to Eminem
Please do more wayne especially his more recent mixtapes from 2014-2020
I’m not a human being
Dope reactions guys. Also Open Letter is the best song on the album imo.
If you gonna do another Wayne track, you gotta do “I’m going in” ft. Drake
Fellas!!! Y'all gotta check out "Lil Wayne - Mama Mia" NON-STOP BARS! 🔥
13:00 "I remember you was con flicked using your influence" 😂😂😂
"You know why it's called mona lisa? Yea bc he said her name.😂😂
Let's get some Nas KD3 song reactions cause the entire project is 🔥🔥🔥 Nas and Hitboy got a 4peat 💯
“Make good with the friend and I’m all jazzy” like jazzy Jeff (Fresh Prince)
The Big L disrespect will not be tolerated.
Wayne bars so crazy even biggie in the back tuning in to the heat 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Definitely check out Welcome to Hell. Eminem and Royce. Back and forth is amazing! 🔥🔥🔥
oK!!!! I'm a Cherokee woman but you boys HAVE GOT TO SEE... EJS speaks that woman reminds me of the big ole black women that helped raise me. Damn
Best channel in 2022 no cap!
I hope you guys react to Em being inducted to the Rock and Roll hall of fame 😊
This is classic. One of my favorite Lil Wayne songs is 6 Foot 7 Foot because “bitch real g’s move in silence like lasagna” is my favorite lyric of all time possibly
Best song of all time
Facts. I remind myself that shit the second it starts every time
The two in the front are like yooo can we just play the video
Lil Wayne Big Bad Wolf or Glory!!!!
You guys are probably a little too young to catch this bar "Watch your mouth, Milli Vanilli" They were a hip-hop duo in the 80s However, in 1990, it was revealed that Milli Vanilli had not actually sung any of their songs.

Da Drought 3 is harder than any Em album easily! I agree with Brock!
Undying love by Nas he paints a picture 🖼️
Eminem: 313 please. It's old school on the Infinite albums, but fire bars
LIL WAYNE. BIG BAD WOLF
A few references i wish that wouldve been caught, for instance the milli vanilli bar, and one is so simple but goes so hard is the "they started french kissing so they didn't see muah"

Top 5 Wayne verse of all-time.....
One of my favorite wayne tracks!!! Need to do biggie feat eminem dead wrong
“Make good with the friend and I’m all jazzy”.
Jazzy is will smiths best friend in Fresh prince of Bel Air 🔥🔥🔥
Wayne my goat fr💯 all opinion but he will always be that for me
Wayne did magic on his song!
You guys should react to dance with the devil by immortal technique best story telling song in hip hop
Also pray for me by Joe Budden
“Tha mobb” is a banger
Man y’all gotta do this one for real the best remix of all time hands down
Bout time y’all doing this one
pause pause pause "then I go and tell all my people and they already know him" lololol!!!!
If ya’ll like story telling. Listen to more NaS. Specifically “Rewind”, “Blaze A 50”, “I gave you power” and “Shoot ‘em up”. 4 of the greatest story songs. 🔥
He ain’t just painting. Ask yourself “like Mona Lisa, what she smilin all the time for”?
The title is actually a double entendre:

These are classic songs you guys should react to
The painting Mona Lisa have a crazy history... it's famous for being stolen from the lourve art museum in Paris, 1913...
It's also rumored the painting started as several different things more of a practice canvas for DaVinci's apprentice's ( which includes Raphael, these are NOT NIJIA TURTLES FYI)
The most valued truth for art historians is 1.)DaVinci was drawing a self-portrait of himself as a woman
Leonardo's DaVinci... and that's why is mesmerizing cause of the recognition of DaVinci behind the woman!!!
2.) second most likely was Leonardo DaVinci started a portrait of a woman and one of his apprentice's finish the "sketch" of the woman and then painted it... ITS ONLY 8x10 (ish) the size a notebook page...
OVERATED PAINTING HOWEVER
THE SONG MONA LISA IS ONE OF THE BEST WORKS OF ART THAT HAS COME FROM HER WEIRD FALLING EYES... creepy
SO DA VINCI HAS CLAIMED THE WORK DO TO ITS FOUND NOTORIETY AFTER THE FRENCH STOLE IT FROM THE ITALIANS IN YHR FRENCH REVOLUTION
I know that was a lot but I figured you I might as tell you cause you were askin about it!
Art history minor

Wayne BODIED kendrick. Wayne needs his flowers fr 🔥
From Cali here. Most under-rated rapper is Andre Andre Nickatina look up "Jungle" & "Train W/ No Love" and get ready to get fucked up.
Just absolute BARS!
I wish this was the OG version. Great song
Carter II is easily the best Lil Wayne album ever. Please point them in the direction of songs such as "Shooter" and "Fireman"
yall gotta do "big bad wolf" by lil wayne
My Mount Rushmore is Eminem, Tupac, Biggie, Nas, Lil Wayne
One of my most played song 💕
He said there’s only one goat.. you’re right.. his name is Marshall
Bad meets Evil- Welcome to Hell
Bro the milli vanilli bar is crazy
even eminem said this was one of his fav verses
"Eminem Show" Album clears them all!

Debatable
Tbh in my opinion it goes TES, MMLP, MMLP2, Recovery. I do think Wayne vs em is close though either one could be the GOAT based on the day for me
Facts bro. The Eminem show is better then tha carter 3
Two completely different artist like comparing drake to tyler
Wayne albums a better to listen to than Eminem albums
