“Every now and then you have to ask yourself: Do you really want to win or just look good losing?”

-Phonte



"Everyday we wake up there's the legitimate struggle
between doin' what's right and just doin' some nigga shit."

-Phonte




"And they say that money change you
But money don't change you
It just makes you more of what you already are."

-Phonte/Little Brother





"They talk about us not usin' the word ni**er
I wanna speak about a couple issues much bigger
Like most black folks live below the poverty line
And they wonder why the fuck we attracted to crime."

-Big Pooh/Little Brother





"They tryin to blame this rap shit for all of our ills
Like I can speak a whup with a mic
Like I can fuck you with a verse or use a verb as a knife."

-Phonte /Little Brother

One of the quotes he said in it that stuck out to me that I loved, was this one...

"'Im speaking to the fathers out there, especially that have daughters...
because we are like their first love, so we gotta represent.." - Nas


Awesome perspective. :heart:

Yup! That was the part that caught my attention too. Whenever I see a little girls eyes light up with excitement when she sees her daddy, it truly warms my heart because you know that's the first man in her life she has ever loved. Awesome perspective indeed :smt045.
 
I’m not scared of poverty, I grew up being poor … & these times are positive because they force you to decide if you’re interested in living on this planet or not.
-Prince​
 
Truth comment @ Prince! ^^^^^^

So many layers to Nas ~
 
Say there's a white kid who lives in a nice home, goes to an all-white school, and is pretty much having everything handed to him on a platter - for him to pick up a rap tape is incredible to me, because what that's saying is that he's living a fantasy life of rebellion.
