j50t I love that one too! It’s my second favorite. But the chorus states, “almost forgot what I was doing”, so he had to go back to that initial drive that got him to that point. Which is the OG Status Symbol. I love all three of them btw lol.
This tape got me through college..from 2014 to 2016 this was on repeat. Took me 16 years to get a 4 year degree, but this gave me the drive I need to finish my marathon.
You had a vision and you finished it no matter how long it took you, no one can take that away from you!!! This inspired me to keep going hard!!! Thank you !!!
I always repped for Nipsey. Back when Mfs in my city didn't know about him or didn't take him as serious. I'll always remember throwing your name in the conversation with the best rappers. Jus to see the looks on my friends faces and to hear that .... Who is Nipsey???? Sad u had to leave us to become bigger than rap. I seen your vision yrs in advance. And the blueprints been designed the foundations been layed. I'm not gonna wait on others to crack the codes in your music. I get the message and I'm evolving.
" We're connected to the bottom like the letter V" Hard shiit. The more I listen to Nipsey, the more I realize he was a poet. His bars give me that Pac feel. He paint the picture so ViVid, that the bars come to life. Very few lyricists have the ability to speak volumes, with very little words. DMX had it, but that's another story. RIP Money Making Nip💙💙💯
I cried everyday for 2 weeks when they took our homeboy Nip... your music motivated me out of 1 of the darkest chapters of my life... We will always love you bro
"Through my eyes 👀 I learned lessons, like time is of the essence and my grind got obsessive, then my mind got restless, put myself in the game but batteries sold separate, question....SINCE WHEN DO REAL NIGGAS COME SECOND?!" 🙏💯🏁🏁
I’m on path of self improvement, fuck all them excuses cause time don’t wait for no one. This song apart of my daily drive I can’t give up with I know I can put the work in and make it happen. I’m trying and that’s all I can do so ima make sure ima never stop trying.
Through my eyes I learned lessons like time is of the essence then my grind got obsessive then my mind got restless put myself in the game but the batteries sold separate... #nipthegreat these words are priceless...
Mortality is a reality and comes faster to some than others based on their power and position. Nip was all power, but the world put him in a position with low battery life. It's crazy, but that's really this society and young, African/Black soldiers's lot in it a lot of the time. Batteries in many ways equates to social capital. Status Symbol.
@@smooth-handle also a reference to back when we was kids a lot of the toys and games will add on the commercial batteries sold separately lbvs u had to get those yaself they gave u the game
You can feel his spirit strong in this yo.... im crying REAL MAN TEARS ON MY FORKLIFT BRO 🤦🏾♂️ this so messed up .... this why i do the music i do....
Same Shit bro, be on my lift listenin to nip music all day or my shit... all I wanna hear since he passed, everyday. I make real music just like him, he definitely my favorite 💯🏁🙏🏾
There's really no other rapper that could ever match hussles swag or the way he uses his words it's unique. Most definitely something you don't here very often. And some of the collabs just speak for themselves for real. We ain't finna wait no more so don't waste my time remember when we had no way? But we'll be okay for nowwwww. ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
"Through my eyes I learned lessons like Time is of the essence and my grind got obsessive Then my mind got restless Put myself in the game but batteries sold separate Question, since when do real niggas come second?"🙏🏽🔥💪🏽
RIP Big homie this one of my favorite songs from you. I'm so sad right now. Hopefully the family who was around him is going to do fine on these rough times :( You will always be missed and go down as one of the legends of west coast hip-hop!
Eyes bloodshot i dont never sleep We act off instict we dont ever think When confronted with a problem we dont ever flee We connectd at the bottom like the letter V He went down on that beat
This Song is a instant classic from the beat to the LYRICS to the message. Nipsey is on his own level. High and very elite. I miss him yeah I'm selfish but his mission is complete. You did it King you did it Ermias. You fucking did it Nipsey. You a Status Symbol for all Eternity. 💙🎓👑
I never really listened to Nip when he was alive. But I respected the way he moved and carried himself. I knew a song here and there but not on no fanboy. I seen someone on IG post this song but all I could remember was the beat which is the same sample J Cole used on The sideline story. So I looked for it and found it today and I’ve played this song about 30 times within the last 4 hours lol every time I listen to a new song that I haven’t heard he don’t disappoint. I can see why he had a impact in many lives. Long live Nip! The marathon continues!!
Whole city know that you became the one, huh? They seen it from the jump, huh? The pressure weigh a ton, huh? Especially where you come from Every night br-br-br-brap bum bum!! 🔥
❤ you nip , forever bumping your music . Started back in 09 when I was in high school , bullets ain’t got no name is the first track I heard of you . LLNH 🙏🏽💯
Shit’ll never be the same without him and his influence not just in the hoods of LA but in hoods across America he showed us that regardless of our fucked up situations we can rise above it. And not only rise above it but to bring everyone up with us. Why must the good die young? The meaningful and purposeful die young? Nip, you made these kids see another way out the hood that isn’t “rapping” or “balling”. You’ll be missed king. Rest in power. God bless his children.
"We connected at the bottom like the letter V" will forever be one of those bars that blows me away. So many gems throughout the whole track but that one is outstanding. The Lil Cadi PGE feature at the end is always nice to hear as well

Wonder what he meant when he said “batteries sold seperate?”
Mortality is a reality and comes faster to some than others based on their power and position. Nip was all power, but the world put him in a position with low battery life. It's crazy, but that's really this society and young, African/Black soldiers's lot in it a lot of the time. Batteries in many ways equates to social capital. Status Symbol.

That’s a really good perspective it makes sense!!🏁
Rip Nipsey!! You are one of the greats and will be missed.
Best status symbol fav nipsey hussle song too
Part 2 has a better beat and part 3 is fire.

Nipsey forever! He was there for me when no one else was and he ain’t have a clue
Beat smooth, Nip rapped too smoothed on it. He top 3 of all time. This is top 10 songs ever. Flow is ridiculous
He just makes classics
Question..... Since when do real nigahs come second???? #classic
Eyes bloodshot i dont never sleep
We act off instict we dont ever think
When confronted with a problem we dont ever flee
We connectd at the bottom like the letter V
He went down on that beat
