    Let loose in the booth and I came to introduce the
    High proof juice like a flaming sambuca
    Halftime 3-point hoop, hallelujah
    Abused oblongata and I severed a medulla
    'Cause rap without Ren is like a skull without a brain, dude
    Or like a [?] with no one to complain to
    Hockey without ice or China without rice
    The Bible without Christ, vindaloo with no spice
    Playing snakes and ladders with no dice
    Day without night, like Mike without an earlobe bite
    I keep it tight,left right,fake,dodge and evade
    An uppercut,fuck ‘em up in any various ways
    Nеfarious gaze moving through precarious days
    When wе're moving through the rubble troubled air in my veins
    Librarian brain, pull up a barbarian slain
    Performing like I'm global warming, music making it rain
    I’m pimpin’ my pain prostitute of all that’s insane
    Put my problems on the paper and the sales will raise
    The sails will rise, pirate with a patch on his eye
    Get ya hookedup on the music sailor, aye,aye,aye
    It’s like rats to the music when I’m feedin ’em pie
    It's Pyrex,can't relax, I'm the waviest guy
    Like yo, rats bring the bubonic flow
    Move the tectonic plates when I step to the show
    So cold, I know a couple people don't fuck with it
    They can just suck on it, zip it, then go, thanks, bro
    Eenie,meenie,miney,mo,I'm shining like a diamond though
    When pressure makes a rhyming diamond,this was by design, ya know
    An isotope,a proton and a neutron in the nuclei
    And split an atom in a fraction,a reaction supersize
    Me and I supersize my order
    Fries on the side,I’m a big whopping author
    Big Mac,rest in peace,BIG,rest in peace,Mac
    Rest in Peace,PAC,rest in peace Peep,rest in peace Rap
    We lose all the greats like that
    So put respect upon their names while they still intact
    That's why I rap upon this beat that was deep for Nas
    I might never reach the level, I'll salute with bars
    I’m coming and bringing the DP and when they are singing the bees knees
    What a ridiculous MC sound so meticulous, repeat
    When I am spitting improperly, proper biology
    No one can follow me, what an anomaly
    Sick shit and quick wit makes girls wet and dicks stiff
    I’m so tongue in cheek with my tongue in your cheek
    I never sleep 'cause death is the cousin of sleep
    I never rest 'cause sleep is the cousin of death
    So save your breath, stop the tape,press pause, and eject

    Love you guys and the way you react.👍I like when you rewind to catch the bars and what they mean. He did add guitar. You caught so much for a first listen. It's impossible to catch them all. So many Easter eggs here. Ren released this on March 14th which is Pi day (pi=3.14) which is a lyric and a double here (feeding them pie). He references lyrics from at least 9 of his own. That's only some of them.

      It was premeditated cause both sides of the sidewalk have the countdown behind him & in front of him & how he stopped when fully across the street knowing the vehicle was gonna pull out behind him 🚙 he kept flowing then raised his hands 🙌 to the skies.
      Did ya notice before he heads under the public transit bridge 🌉 the train from way up above was moving on the tracks in motion exactly 👍 like One ☝️ of the most infamous Nas album 💿 photos of the New York transit line bridge 🌉 shots 📸👏
      Too many Lil things Ren did with this halftime twist & paying homage to Nasir Aka Willy Escobar absolutely 💯 blew my mind 🤯 &
      Ren Gill is such a Modest Human Being that he would say Oh I didn’t know & laugh it off 😂😅🙇‍♂️ 🤜✌️🤛

      We noticed but we was so excited with everything going on from the music to the video so we kept talking over each other lol. But yes if he meant to or not it’s so brilliant. Also maybe he noticed the white car making a right. At that moment he sort of glanced at the vehicle ( assuring them he is not crazy maybe lol) but continued like the professional he is.

  • @sunshynff
    @sunshynff 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    First off, great reaction guys, speaking as an old head, it's so nice to see some young bucks reacting to a beat I grew up listening to, and not only know the original, but actually be familiar with the artist and what makes Nas and his music so significant and important to the culture, so props to you all.
    I watched to the end it looks like you guys got all the easter eggs, and the ways Ren paid homage, so I'll just say on the original beat, and the first half of Ren's retake, you'll hear brass horns back in the mix, Nas apparently put those in as a shout out to his dad, who's a Jazz/Blues musician. Ren left them in until about the halfway point, where he stops, the camera circles him and the beat drops out for a second, when it comes back the brass is replaced by that sorta Jimi Hendrix crunchy guitar riff, which I thought was a really nice touch by Ren, without changing the beat up too much. Again, great reaction guys!! ✌💚

  • @JochenBoy
    @JochenBoy 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    Also, when you talk about this being "only two minutes" - actually, when the music cuts out on Ren's Halftime, it's at 2:10. Nas' Halftime is 4:20 (+/- 1 second, depending on where you look). So Ren did it in half the time. Halftime.

    That he puts up his hand at 2:10 which is half of the 4:20 original (on Spotify) isn't a coincidence. It's then black to 2:13; (11)213 is the zip of Crown Heights, Brooklyn. NAS birth place. I used to walk on Flatbush in the mid nineties. Different times...
