I shouted too loud in my car when the beat came in ( happy as hell ) ! When I heard the snippet in the Crime Pays video I was hoping they put this song on the album ! GREAT PROJECT AGAIN !!!
Yes my heart broke too when it changed, it should've stood the same 1st beat throughout the whole song. That sample of "Wee- Teach me How" soundsso heavenly, it still on my 5th or 6th listen it still heartbreaking the beat switch.
I was listening to this album on my way home. Could not wait to get in the house. This track came on and I sat in the car for another 20 minutes in my driveway banging out on repeat.
Freddie Gibbs releases classic albums. One of the only artist making "real music". I been fucking with him since 2009. Dude is a fucking legend, in my top 20 for sure. I moved to Gary a few years back and love it here. yea niggas are broke, yea shit is hard, streets are dirty and I get him but I'm in a different mindset. i want to support my people and not the "other man". Me and the wife moved here from Chicago and bought a house here. We love it.
Yes you're right the last part of this song sucks! They could've just kept this beautiful sample of "Teach me how" throughout this whole "Cataracts" song.
@@jakedelhinski3849 will you shut the fuck up? I see you telling everybody on here who praises the switch up that it "sucks" STFU and enjoy quality hip hop because you need enlightened
@@authorrobjohnson3178 it's great but I think Kendricks GKMC or Kanyes MBDTF will define this decade in hip hop TBH. This is up there though. I'd put pinata over this one though.
0:55 "To me the God Allah is the black man personified" That bar never ceases to put a smile on my face every time I hear it. The whole album is amazing but this is the standout track for me.
I'm not particularly religious, spiritual yes and always open to learning and growing within. That being said, I like certain things from different religions as most have good aspects on ways to think, live and be. Now flipside to that as I also take good w the bad as many have too much that I just can't rock with. Allah has great pillars and to each their own but I just can't look past a lot of bullshit w Islamic religion its too much to ignore. Bible equally has so much nonsense and outdated ways of thinking as these books were written by humans with flaws just like everyone else. Not hating, just always learning and take everything my own way w a salt shaker right next to my heart n mind.
I'm with anyone else who can't seem to take this off of repeat. A track about gettin high and tearin thru some junk food, and then the thoughts got so heavy it's make my head nod HARD!!
I still can't believe we're getting this. Feel so fucking lucky that I'm around to experience these two legends making an incredible album and then, five years later, coming back together and making another fucking classic.
