Beat was way whack but Talib Kweli tryna make it work, but it's not working. I mean I really admire Talib Kweli music but one thing ta kwe: don't put this on your album lol. I really like the ending when Ta Kwe starts talking, he says more there than in his rhymes. Off the record, Dip-set will dethrone and murder 50.
It's Dip Set bitch.

It's easy to say Talib's garbage when you don't know fuckin shit about hip hop. The fact that there is a song called This is why I'm Hot is even out should set off alarms in niggas heads like damn shit is whack.

If talib is whackk to you, please listen to his first two albums and the Blackstarr joint. Then you can flex ya hip hop muscles.

It is always funny to come on here and see cats say something like this is garbage. You cats is the reason HIP HOP is dead. This single is another example of taking a garbage track and someone with lyrics making it HOT. The same way that Andre 3000 just kills the Walk it out remix. I hate Walk it out but when I heard Dre on that remix I was like WOW. And for someone to say Talib is an ok rapper name 4 people that can flow better than him at this time?

Haha I love how he stole the whole beat from that crappy "This is Why I'm Hot" song. This is probably a huge slap in the face for that bitch MIMM or whatever his name is.

For all you hatin' ass naysayers: Thanks for your opinions, now go to google and search "REAL HIP HOP MUSIC" Point n' Case: You can't google, watch tv, or fuc*in listen to the radio these days to KNOW ANYTHING about Real Hip Hop Music. You lame heads is ignorant. But ignorance is bliss, because trust me, I'm guessing you all really think your favorite rappers - whether it be CamRon, Jim Jones, Mike Jones, MIMMS, or fuc*in Vanilla Ice- are really In the Streets hustlin, drug dealin, shootin up cats, gettin' shot at or robbin' jewelry stores. I'm sorry, but they aren't. They never did. Only thing they do really do is make money. Which is NOT what Hip Hop Music Is. Real Hip Hop Music is from the soul, IT IS dudes - like Kweli, Common (sense that is), Q-Tip, Jay-Z (who has developed into a real artist) Mos, DMX, Kanye, Nas, B.I.G, Pac, Ludacris, Erik Sermon, Jean Grae, Lauren Hill, Black Thought/The Roots, The Game, Ghostface, Jada, Hi-Tek, Busta (when it was bout the (Rhymes) and many more - are the reason why Hip Hop is still on life support. And I am assuming (which means knowing ignorantly) all you lame ass hatin' ass chump ass mark ass haters don't know shi* about any of their music. You have to LISTEN to Real Hip Hop to KNOW what it is. You can't learn to play Football if you keep fuc*in with Rugby?! Listen n Learn! These artist bring it from the soul, from the heart, from their passion for life and for the funk. For Life. They bring it back from the roots when Jazz/Blues was The Light for all struggles. Hip Hop is from the heart. Not the pocket. These artists may be makin' money too so don't get me wrong. But God blessed them with a vision-a talent so they use it to their advantage, thats what human beings do. but if the same rubbish type artists want to do the same with their "Entertaing" Lies, Greed, Drugs, Sex, and Violence, hey be my guest its a free country. But don't dare have the nerve to label those "entertainers" as "HIP HOP ARTISTS". They are striclty entertainment. WHat kind of meaning will the song "BALLIN'" have for you 15 years from now???? """AWW THAT SONGS FUCKIN OLD WACK N PLAYED OUT BRO, change the station!""" on the other hand. Talib's "Get By" or Common's "The Light" or Pac's "Dear Mama" or DMX's "Slippin" All of these songs I can guarantee they have touched the heart and soul of an individual and have ACTUALLY MADE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON THEIR LIFE!!!! I know MIMMS "This is why I'm Hot" didn't change your life, but it did prolly Bump in the Kenwood so you can get some kinda attention from some dUm broad who wanted to roll wit a "baller".... hahahah.. I'd rather get mines on a Huffy wit Pegs lol.. thats my opinon. Worrd up.

Bigup shtwoone,i feel u 100% these young niggas don't know shit.I'll always maintain that broads fucked up hip hop.Everything u hear on the radio caters to chics and niggas want chics so they go for the ride of wack shit just to bag chics.females are material as hell and that's all u hear in music,niggas braggin bout what they got and what they do,no matter how wack it is dudes jump on it if bitches like it,that ain't real pimpin,that's brown-nosing.A real nigga calls the shots, and the bitch ain't on it unless he on it,Realtalk.In the early to mid-90's most chics hated hip hop and loved R&B and now you'll bitchass niggas let them decide what's hot and what ain't,U stupid shallow gullible sucka for love ass fools.

How can some of you people call this "Garbage" and say that "real hip-hop is dead"? Obviously you are some fool that watches only MTV and shit. Stop looking at who is at the top of the charts and basing hip hop off those people. True hip hop is alive and its flowing, maybe it is not the shit you hear on the radio but it's out there. Open up your mind and go find it. What is sad is that most of the people that claim this is shit listen to "rappers" that repeat the same 4 words for 3 minutes of a song and talk about their wannabe gangsta ass cars. That shit aint fly and it never will be. This shit that you are hearing by Talib and some other mc's is history in the making. You guys are pathetic for not appreciating what real hip-hop sounds like anymore. You have been so washed up with what is "hot" you have forgotten what hip hop is about. And the worst thing, im italian and im more black than your bitch ass is. Now that's pathetic.
