[00:00.00] Listen to me good
[00:10.93] The artist is the most important person
[00:17.80] You are the feature
[00:23.93] People listen to you, they don't listen to their preachers
[00:27.24] Exaggerated tales of hustin' we quick to pass judgment and fail our brothers
[00:31.31] Instead of talkin' bout Lauren Hill talk about Lauren skill, truth be told there may never be a girl as ill
[00:36.78] Don't gossip bout Dame Dash, give props to Dame hand
[00:39.53] For the rise of Jay and for signing Kanye, man
[00:41.92] Niggas is crazy that's why we ain't got shit
[00:44.56] Rappers hate each other not the labels that got rich
[00:47.16] Don't care about culture they only want profit
[00:49.58] If your album sells slow bet you get dropped quick
[00:52.44] Q-Tip warned us the industries toxic
[00:54.94] For reference check out B.D.P - "Sex and Violence"
[00:57.42] When Styles made "I Get High" it was playin' all day
[00:59.88] When Styles made "I'm Black" it didn't get enough play
[01:02.40] I guess they got a problem with anything positive
[01:05.32] Doesn't make sense if it doesn't bring dollars in
[01:12.06] Those that managed us
[01:13.72] Those that were our agents
[01:15.12] Those that were our accountants
[01:17.57] Those that were the records executives
[01:20.02] Those that were the owners of the record label
[01:24.14] You never got true accounting for nothing that you did
[01:29.51] What’s the difference between a label and pimpin'
[01:32.18] You sell yourself, they tell you how to spend it
[01:34.54] Ho ass niggas slow down, listen
[01:37.26] Just prey your minds with no ambition
[01:39.70] They keep you fly — images, promotion
[01:42.33] They keep you high, so a nigga isnt’ focused
[01:44.87] You livin’ in a moment, feeling yourself
[01:47.39] They livin' in plus homes, what’s really success?
[01:49.88] And what’s swag?
[01:51.20] I don’t care how you dress or what you drive
[01:53.98] I want rhymes that really impress
[01:55.18] You say it’s all about money, do you even invest?
[01:57.66] Any time in your rhymes, let me guess
[02:00.20] You’re so nice you don’t write, it just comes to you
[02:02.95] ‘Cause you the shit — nah, you just dodo
[02:05.72] I lyrically abuse any rapper who choose to step to me
[02:09.30] I will bring it right to you!
[02:14.35] Who do you think you are?
[02:16.97] To them you are nothing but a piece of meat
[02:20.64] And you are only as valuable as your last hit song
[02:25.77] And when you make no more hit songs
[02:28.68] Nobody cares for you no more
[02:32.20] Men lie, women lie
[02:33.16] Numbers can be altered
[02:34.37] To look high, shareholders hate taking losses
[02:36.77] This is business, they don’t care about your lyrics
[02:39.56] The better you sell, the better future for their children
[02:41.98] Controversy sells so they support conflict
[02:44.54] Makes more progress means more profit
[02:47.34] And artists get killed they say they so sorry
[02:49.78] Meanwhile they tell you the date of his next project
[02:52.46] What a life, death made it more profit
[02:55.06] Record companies get paid for your drama
[02:57.72] And “Beef” DVD is on BET
[02:59.74] So every artist who was on it was beefin’ for free
[03:02.67] While the royalties are going to QD3
[03:05.20] He Quincy Jones though, what he know about beef?
[03:07.84] No disrespect intended, I know he got peace
[03:10.48] But it’s deep how the rich get paid off our grief
[03:16.93] And every one of our great artists they die — with nothing
[03:23.72] And the record company executives were rich, sending their kids to college
[03:37.86] You’re not stupid — you are brilliant
[03:40.85] But the question is: can you put your brilliance in a song?
[03:46.75] Can you put the conditions of the world in a song and inspire young people all over the world?
[00:00.00] Listen to me good
[00:10.93] The artist is the most important person
[00:17.80] You are the feature
