Missing 1998-2009. Everyone seemed like they were soo happy man. It was a decade of ps2 games, going to block buster on a friday night and renting your favorite movie/ video game, partys were fun everyone didnt just fight or twerk the whole time, 106 and park, tv stations showed good shows, smoking weed didnt make you look cool, family reunions with good music, baggy clothes, everyone just got along. 2010s was a terrible decade and it has me wishing I could go back to 1998 and do it all over again.

I've always maintained that this is Kanye's greatest song. It encompasses everything that's made him great: the Lauryn Hill soul sample, the brilliant instrumentation, and lyrics that focus on materialism and classism, the two major themes of his entire career.

[@chownful]

[@skyehare4]

"The people highest up got the lowest self-esteem The prettiest people do the ugliest things for the road to riches and diamond rings" One of the truest lines in this entire song. That, and the one about crack heads buying crack. Who would ever hate this song?

[@chownful]

It's almost like he knew what he would turn into!

[@remy99552]

it's almost like the producers who wrote this song for him went to marketing school or something, and somehow knew that using a relatable subject (such as low self esteem) would trick the average consumer (you) into being unable to hate this song because "oh my god it's so true and I can relate!" it's almost like they know how to advertise, as if it's like their job or something! weird!
