Stogie T - Four horsemen ft A-Reece,Maggz & Nasty C
The Biblical Four Horsemen & How Stogie T Uses Them in the Song
The original reference comes from the Book of Revelation (Chapter 6:1–8) in the New Testament. When Jesus (the Lamb) opens the first four seals of a scroll,
4. Death
Pale (greenish)
Named Death, Hades follows him. Power over ¼ of the earth to kill with sword, famine, plague & wild beasts
Literal death, the end, finality
Maggz – Comes last with the shortest part (the outro). Pale horse = the closer, the one who seals the fate.
A-Reece – He represents the starvation of real hip-hop and the hunger that drives him: “I’m all about the paper now”, “You soft niggas more like moissanite”, the scales = weighing fake vs real, the black horse = the darkness and grind of the come-up in the slums.
“I’m at war with myself”. The red horse is the internal and external battles of a young king who had to fight for everything.
3. Famine
Black
Rider holds scales, a voice says “A quart of wheat for a denarius (a day’s wage)”
Economic hardship, scarcity, injustice
2. War
Red
Rider has a great sword, given power “to take peace from the earth” so men slay one another
Violence, bloodshed, conflict
Nasty C – His whole energy is war: “You don’t have the option to retreat, slide”, “What you willing to do for your peace, die?”,
Stogie T – He opens the song: “I watched as the Lamb opened the first seal…” He positions himself as the conqueror with the crown, the one who opens the scroll (the beat). He’s the veteran king coming to reclaim the game. The white horse = purity of skill + dominance.
What He Brings (Revelation 6)
Symbolism Usually Attached
How Stogie T & the song reinterpret it
1. Conquest / Pestilence
White
Rider has a bow, wears a crown (stephanos), goes out “conquering and to conquer”
False peace, imperialism, or plague
four horsemen ride out, each on a different-colored horse, each bringing a different form of judgment on the earth. They are the harbingers of the Apocalypse.
Here’s the biblical breakdown and how Stogie T maps the metaphor onto the song:

The Eagle album sounds like he just hopped in the studio last week and decided to make an album. I’ve heard worse music, but this is most definitely not memorable music.
