I appreciate lyricism, wordplay, all the technicals, but a strong part of lasting long in rap is being able to spit bars that mean nothing but sound cool as hell. 2 chainz built an entire career on it
Game 3 of the NBA Finals is just hours away, and it feels like every single NYPD officer is outside MSG.
The police presence tonight is massive, and you can tell this isnโt just another game ๐๐๐ฅ
All u gotta do is get so deviously betrayed and bamboozled 1 time in ur life of purity to change the entire trajectory of ur relationships to any human ever
First, the loyal fans who supported the Knicks for decades when the team sucked (emptying thier wallets for tickets, shirts, jerseys) get priced out of the building when New York finally reaches the Finals (by insanely wealthy patrons willing/capable of casually blowing $20k on a pair of tickets to a basketball game, many of them having just hopped on the bandwagon or purchased tix to Game 3 solely b/c MSG is โthe place to beโ this week).
Then those same loyal, working-class fans get a second middle finger from ownership. Due to Dolan's desire to host Trump, thousands of diehard Knicks fans are denied the chance to gather outside the Garden, watch the game on a big screen, and share a once-in-a-lifetime moment with the community that helped keep this franchise alive when nobody else cared.
Access is reserved for the powerful, rich and/or connected, not the fans who stuck with this team through 20+ years of misery.
