This isn't a meaning thing so much as it is a correction. Where Minnesota says "Chest moves like bars scale" it should be "Chess moves like Barksdale". A lot of people make the mistake. It's a reference to the TV show The Wire on HBO. In the first season D'Angelo is using a game of chess between Bodie and Poot as a similie to explain the drug game.
