Givin ends to my friends and it feels stupendous

Let's all just talk about what a fucking great line this is. Everything about it is absolutely perfect. I mean, the part that rhymes with friends, "stupen"... is in the middle of a word, so it is literally the definition of flow.

It enters your head and never leaves. It also sums up a feeling which isn't talked about very often. Actually, a ton of things. The feeling of actually triumphing and earning something, but to the extent that you can give it away and that's what feels good. It's about being charitable, but also by extension, what it means that he can finally be charitable.

Besides all of which, stupendous is such an underused and great word.

So many Biggie lines enter my head and never leave!

"Ya heartbeat sound like sasquatch feet"

"i don't care if yr pregnant, gimme the baby rings and the number one mom pendant."

"when i met you my first thoughts was a trick/ you looked so good i'd suck on yr daddy's dick."

i know exactly what you mean. the returning surge of popularity. hurt to see any beauty or power maimed, even if your perspective is from the outside. amazing charisma. well, this is different, but i guess the trick is in creating empathy. anyways, i didn't realize how immediately recognizable and characteristic this line is until now, so thanks.

I believe Biggie lifted that from a Richard Pryor routine, but still, props for recycling it.

It’s the ones that smoke blunts witcha
See your picture, now they wanna
Grab they guns and come and getcha
Betcha biggie won’t slip
I got the calico with the black talions loaded in the clip
So I can rip through the ligaments
Put they bodies in a bad prediciment

But selling acid was a bad idea
And selling it to a cop was a worse one
