Songs don't have to make sense. They just have to sound good. People buy foreign music from cultures with languages they don't even understand. Fela has oyinbo fans, so does sunny ade etc. Of what use are his lyrics to them?

Music transcends all these superficial biases IMO. If u don't like it ignore it. I never heard of a song everyone liked, regardless of how "'sensible" the lyrics are.

Jo ban so fun won o

@DBR
This is more of him clearing the controversy while still forcing a pun out of it.
Vigilante soldiers said he mentions 6s or sumn and he turned it into a pun, same way he did the 'I'm amazing' line.

I wish he'd do the style we know and just diss them for being daft.

That's exactly what I think about the line. Just making a pun, that's all

@Genuflect
A oga . . . mio bu yin ooh

Lol

But I never see anybody wey think wetin you think so how will it grow into a controversy? Most people don't even understand the line to begin with

eldee:
@DBR & Genuflect

Y'all have been listening to hiphop for decades and you don't know what 'six' means??
Most of the time when rappers use six, it's usually about six zeros . . . this probably means Blueprint 3 has sold 3mill worldwide.

Sometimes it could refer to cars . . . but on a good day, it's album sales or bank figures.
Boasting about Range or M-6 is old . . . notice how he said, 'I'm on my third six' . . . meaning he's probably not even hit that figure.

I hate the fact that he's even talking about it. . . I do enjoy when he blasphemes, it's as cocky as the word goes.
I like the 'I'm in Mason . . . huh . . . Martgiella' style.

Yeee!! See how you yab for Osan Monday. Lol. I don't know how many copies of BP3 he has done worldwide and it didn't sound like he was talking about an album. But all the same, me no see any coding for that line

DBR:
i hav no issue wit his faith n belief,even tho some crap he spews can be nauseatin'.
He's stilone ofma fav. rappers.
Howeva, the so called cohort feel Jay has no respect for their own faith either.
Cos see, Jay dont talk sh[i]![/i]t bout other religions. . or satanist. . so why the so called cohort's faith.
Plus, i think Jay it meticulous wit his lines, he dont drop it if it aint gon get the desired effect.
He says numbers dont lie, It's bout progression, he on to d nxt, right?
So im sayin he aint talkin bout an automobile in that line.
Dunno wat he's talkin bout tho,but def. not his 3rd Range or Merc.
Me i enjoy the track sha
oNe

Lol. Of course we all enjoy the track. But how come you are so sure he wasn't talking about a car in that line? Why do you feel he's tryna spark up controversy with it? It doesn't sound like there's any crypt in that bar. Especially when he's directly creating a metaphor around 666

eldee:
Best line on the song for me . . . 'Right now I can re-write history, I stopped writing so bleep it ,I do it mentally'
I think that line was referring to the rumours that he's now signed Diddy(King) as his manager.

Yeah. I think Ross killed it. Jigga just got more attention cos of the depth of the rumours surrounding him. And isn't Diddy really managing Ross?

aieromon:
I think so too.This is not the first time he's makin' reference to 6's.

six
Six, when used to reference a car, most often refers to a Range Rover 4.6 which, in the past, was the premium model of Range Rover and cost significantly more money than the basic 4.0, hence having a 4.6 is a bragging point.
"What's the difference between a 4.6 and 4.0? Like thirty to forty thousand RoosterDrinker, beat it!" Jay-Z "Imaginary Player"
"I am killin' em out there they needin' first aid, cuz' the boy got more sixes than first grade" Jay-Z "Jigga That Nigga"

www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=six+grade

Fair enough. Thank God we have that figured out before vigilant citizen start to dey yan another thing. Those ones must be coming all over the lyrics by now. Lol

aieromon:
Ross did better keh?Were you tryin' to get a chick to ''drop her panties'' when you listened to the song?

Baba gboju. Ross' verse was too deep for the average ear. At least I like his verse more sha

bgees:
what did jay mean when he said : I'm on my third 6, but a devil am not

I think he was referring to the Mercedes 600 series. Me sef no know o, na one of ma car freak friends tell me. Lol

I feel Ross did better on this track. That nigga can rap. Jigga went in too

Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Not Indiana Jones o. This guy na fool. Didn't like it at first listen but it's grown on me

eldee:
I never said he doesn't have bragging rights, I'm just saying he gets less let-offs than say Jay-Z or Pac.

So what are the things they actually got away with?

eldee:
@Sauron
Google Jay-Z criticise BET for Eminem or sumn and see what Jay-Z said about it.

Actually, it was that shitty MTV Top 10 Hottest MC's list. Jigga sef know what's up so he had to criticise

NeroPapas:
@ chamotex: , You no go kill me o.!! E just dey like say you no wetin dey my mind. The last babe cancel the first babe work!!!

I don die! ROTFLMAO

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=459516.msg6353388#msg6353388 date=1278619759]Eminem is a white dude - He's not bovvered about the wealth or em fast cars unlike the niggaz and Eldee misconstrued it that Eminem isn't accepted.
Very soon, Eldee will tell us Bill Gates isn't accepted cos he doesn't brag about his wealth. [/quote]Lol. No mind am jare. Im never manya, na why. eldee, go and toke something then come back and say something jor. Jor o, ma lo fi Salawa se Lady Gaga

Eldee, so why you come dey yan like say im no get bragging rights? He just doesn't brag. Most of these rappers wey dey chase money sef no get one-quarter wetin im get, haven't sold as much records, can't outrap him, haven't been absent for 5 years and come back to blow the game up etc. So what's your point?

I swear MI go fall my hand gan if im reply this guy. Or he better KO KH if he wants to get respected battle-wise. Nah, forget it. Let him just release a dope sophomore album and let Kelly keep talking to himself like Shady

Because Eminem can't say nigga, he's not accepted? What the hell? You're lucky Em is not the bragging type. White men are not as loud-mouthed as we niggaz. That alone explains it all. The only person who gat the smallest thing on Shady is Jigga. But don't count on it like that
