Gold Watch

-Agree Fully With HotChocolat, and I was getting irritated at the people calling him 'vain' while I was scrolling down-

He's listing in the chorus he talks about 2 thing - Items (Money), and girls. which is what a lot of rappers in the industry do, but within the verses he breaks it down to what 'he thinks is cool' but more so just what he likes. He's giving you a taste of the real person, because to be quite frank, It would bother to me listening to a person so deep and intricate as Lupe, but not know anything about the person behind the rhetorical devices. Opens up the listener to his world and gives them a bit of education at the end ;)

*Background is saying: “Oh, give the drummer Some” “Yea Yea Come on!”

those are the correct lyrics. ::).

now im not sure what the true meaning of this song is but if i think it is what it is then im quite disappointed in Lu. i think in a way he's ACTUALLY mentioning what he owns...not cool but i hope im not right

i think the main focus are these broads and how they arent as good as rappers portray them and the rest is

I think the verses are what Lupe thinks is "cool" and the chorus is hip hop's definition of cool.

Yeah, the song starts with a disclamer LLet’s peruse the essential of cool A brief study on the things so instrumental to doThat make me feel fly-er than lobbies of bellevues No exclaimer just aramore no credentials from a school" the rest is about those things that. Are cool. I admit it is a bit vain for lupe but with so many ther politcally focused songs I think this was ok for him to do. Its still a hot song and chances are lupe has gone over our heads in his depth once again. After all, the guy is so deep "even scube steve will find it hard to breathe around these leagues" lol. ;-)

Oh ya. And the lyrics are crazy wrong. All 3 versions. But I do not feel like editing them. Especialluy since I'm on my blackberry

it's moleskine paper, not mons glen.
