I was hooked on “No Hook” and “American Dreamin’” for a while. Then I gave “Fallin’” another listen, Verse tres to be precise. Suddenly, I realized what has happening to me. It dawned on me that I was being transported onto diss-ney land. Then Jermaine Dupri’s voice came down from above and said: “Fallin’ is more than just a song, Rizoh”
I’ll show you what I’m blabbing about. Walk with me
Fallin’ – Verse III:
And ya can’t get up
All you do is push-up
Pull-up sit-up
Locked down the town now belongs to the squares
Who said they won’t make the same mistake that got you there
And ya arm candy sweet on em’ and the women
That you left for this heffer got a college degree coming
Bad news keeps comin’
Hard to keep something on ya stomach
Your sick ’bout what ya life is becoming
But your use-to’s has-beens
Ragging bad ’bout all the new dudes
Talking tough on the Youtube
‘Bout what you use to do
But that’s old school to the new crew
They doin’ numbers like Sudoku
They’re the new you
And it’s damn near inevitable
They’ll experience deja vu too
Fight and you’ll never survive
Run and you’ll never escape
So just fall from grace
Damn…
OK, maybe I’m reaching. Why would Jay diss uncle L under the guise of storytelling? Then again, Jay is sneaky like that. All his recent disses have been subliminals, minus the “F*ck Dehaven jab on “No Hook.” One thing’s clear though, he’s definitely going at a nameless adversary on this one.
Btw, here’s the “Fallin’” remix with Obie Trice:
