I don’t want to sound cocky, but the best way its been used was on “Forever.” Those lines just all individually make so much sense.
YOU HAVE A "PUNCHLINE" IN YOUR VERSE THAT GOES "If I WAS IN THE CLUB, YOU KNOW I'D BALL/ CHEMO"
― incredible length (J0rdan S.), Saturday, 26 June 2010 19:34 (fifteen years ago)
it's "I balled", which makes more sense but is still totally rmde

The comments in that savage column are this OMG BRAGGIN 2010 faux-naïveté bullshit like "Ive never heard ANY of these songs" and "WHO IS THIS 'Katie Perry'" which is like cool Internet post-millenial white-boy version of "I don't even OWN a tv" v. 2.0

lol both otm. love that http://2new4u.com/Downloads/wp-content/uploads/drake.jpg is implying that Ludacris is someone who is too lyrically inexperienced to handle such an ~innovative rap trend~
fwiw luda's delivery on the "balloons" line makes me lol so much that I will always give it a free pass.

the thing that pisses me off about that "yo we murderers, cuz we kill time" lyric is that it's the inverse of a much more creative Big L punchline which uses the same phrase as an insult:
"The crown is still mineCuz I drop ill rhymesA lot of rappers talk murderBut couldn't kill time"

funny thing is before I saw either movie when I was a kid I used to get them mixed up all the time too, but Fab always seemed like such a meticulous pop culture nerd with his punchlines that I'm still kind of disappointed in him. I wonder if anyone's tweeted to him about his mistake yet.

"3 of us but we're not the Beatles" type rap reference errors could probably be its own thread, but obv. I was mainly singling out the Fab line for being grocery baggy, the mistake was just a bonus

has anyone else noticed Justin Timberlake adopting the classic YM simile style on the new Diddy/Wayne leak? his whole verse is full of sub-Gudda Gudda punchlines ("I'ma bend your body...MAGNETO," "Let me have my way...CARLITO," etc etc). Justin, you are better than this!
