Absoluly 😊Bravo to locksmith

[@totalbliss1]

Is this a triple entendre?? "Look how they framed us in a box. Jada's kiss broke his Will, now she beggin Smith to change the Lox. Tryin to eavesdrop, when a woman wants to stray, there's nothing you can say to try to D-Block. Just cut her off, keep movin and weigh it later. Where I'm from, we had to learn to keep it player." 🔥🔥

[@yusufmussa6386]

My Goodnesssss!!!

[@ericgomez9216]

Let’s play “rapping deconstructed”.. “Framed”= in a box [square] “Jada broke his will”= Fresh Prince humiliated himself front of world cuz Jada “broke his will”= broke non disclosure agreement Jadakiss= member of “The Lox” “Change the lox”= locks of hair (Jada’s alopecia) “When women stray”= Jada bashing August Alsina “Nothing you can say to try to D-Block”= Hancock propensity to allow wife to cheat “D-Block”= Jadakiss member of D-Block “Just cut her off, keep moving and weigh it later” - divorce her and move on “Keep it moving and weigh it later”- copping a sack expeditiously and weighing later”

[@totalbliss1]

@@ericgomez9216 Nice. Here's how I break it down. Triple entendre first interpretation: It's about the entanglement The LOX went through with Puff and Bad Boy and how he had them framed in a box wearing shiny suits and dancing. Jadakiss and the rest of the group wanted out of their ironclad contract (which Puff wasn't willing to do so easily) so they could sign with Ruff Ryders and eventually changed the name that Puff gave them (he shortened their original name from The Warlox to The LOX) to D-Block. If Puff had kept it player, cut them off and kept movin, he would've never invited such bad publicity and constant ridicule from them for jerking them off and not paying them or all the other artists on his label. See 🤣 🤣 skit "Jay Jerkin." Second interpretation: How Jada's entanglement with Alsina broke Will Smith's will. Even though he tried every which way to get her to not stray, there was nothing he could do to block her from getting that D. He should've cut her off from that instant he caught her and weigh his options with his lawyer, saved face and kept it player. His life would've been a lot better. He would've never been caught up at the Oscars like he did. Third interpretation: Was just a simple play on his own name Locksmith, mixed in with the entanglements. 😉 Pretty clever wordplay. 💯

[@JGoodMagaMorons]

This is a Master Class

[@izzo4185]

Wordplay for sure One bar alone would need to have three meanings

[@Mule-chezedek]

I'd say Locksmith is probably in Sways top 3, Sways really put him on more than anyone🤷‍♂️. Lock is one of dudes that'll never have the numbers...but definitely a top tier MC for the real heads!

[@lyricismlover8345]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/iqvOe2dmj9Shd9Esi=ubiQ_4pkRpvKoUm2 Ehh, id say he was more fascinated by the white boys going in and out while actually coming off the top. Not up here just spitting writtens. Black thought was much more prolific with the word play and thought provoking social analysis. This is good, don't get it twisted, but I'd rather hear Tsu Surf or Arsonal spit where you can actually hear the emotion and hunger in their voice. I think Mysonne's latest freestyle was more quote "conscientious".

@@lyricismlover8345 I get what you're saying. But lock is consistently prolific.

Here's the prime example. Why is it they are constantly running a negative campaign usually filled with innuendos, rumors, negative stereotypes and conspiracies against everyone of the super rich and successful entertainers of ours that's making moves. If you don't believe me, look up any of the powerful ones. They have a video for every one of them, usually backed up by some washed up celebrity or other. See if they have any for theirs.The 🦀 in the 🪣 mentality is strong with us and we unwittingly play into their hand.

[@ToniSmith-wj9uf]

@Barren-MIND Lol, I feel you on that. This is definitely an elementary bar,especially when coming from Locksmith. I also think that's his drawback. His bars are so dense that most can't digest them.

[@Barren-MIND]

@@ToniSmith-wj9uf I was a massive locksmith fan back during grind time, loved that he transitioned into music so seamlessly not too long after his debut, I say that to inform onlookers that I am familiar with this mans pen and am proud of his success. However as an honest and critical songwriter myself, what bothers me a lot about his writing is how crammed it is in some parts and how far some syllables and words are spaced out. Structurally almost sound, but the pseudo intellectually driven lines kind of ruin it for me in some instances. I think what music needs right now is something more intimate and heartfelt, not something thought provoking, unless of course it’s introspective or can be applied to the listener. His delivery is always on point though, dude has always rapped with conviction and has had semi unique cadences to pair it with.

He wrote and memorized this for months I'm sure, this wasn't a off the top of his head freestyle, obviously this was written, studied and beat was assigned beforehand. Still 🔥 but call truth, keep them honest.

You guys are just going off what you think. Locksmith never writes his lyrics down. I've been following this man's career for a while. I know it's crazy and unbelievable, but true! Look up - Locksmith never writes his lyrics down on KZbin. He talks about it on this show. He also has mentioned it in other places. 🔥 cheaaa boiiiii

It may not be off the top. But he doesn't write it down and just memorizes it

Too many gems to unearth in this one. This brought me all the way back and all the way present at the same time. Timeless instant classic!
