MMMMmmmm


Deffo song of the weekend (lots of competition).

The whole thing is pretty remarkable, but there are two lines in particular I find particularly interesting:

1. "Throw dirt on me and grow a wildflower"

2. "Bitches try to kick me while I’m down, I’ll break your leg"

I like the first one because (in the context of the whole track) this appears like a perfectly enunciated aphorism.

I like the second because if this Mr. Wayne character is speaking literally, then the only way I know of to actually do such a thing as he talks about is with Brazillian Jiu Jitsu. I am curious to know if this Mr. Wayne actually knows this technique or if this line is just the delightful and pretty tapestry of artistic endeavour.

Here's a little smtg smtg for the road...

A nice old rule~~~

Aliquis non debet esse judex in propria causa quia non potest esse judex et pars

Lat – a person should not be judge in his or her own cause as he or she cannot be both judge and party.

(p.s.. Also love the finesse involved in how these guys sampled the fuck out of Haddaway .. so much skiiiiiiiil)

(pps. A dear friend told me this track still sounds a bit rude/angry .. I agree it is rude, it could be a bit more loving .. but its rudeness is part of what gives it its 'smtg smtg' in my view .. But I do wonder if this Mr. Eminem is skilled at certain techniques of meditation? If not, he should really try that stuff out .. If he is not already gifted, its my intuition that he'd nail it pretty hard .. apparently he is not a drug addict anymore! hooray to that..)
