Big love to you as always! One of our favorites to do it 🙌🏾🙏🏾

DUMBO, short for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) is a neighborhood in NYC, in Brooklyn, with a lot of upstart businesses, restaurants, and art centers. When Eric said 'we out DUMBO having meetings...", he's saying that's where they're at.

First verse was fire!! All about Pie . Started with a slice of humble pie , then the square root of pi (3.14) and then they all got 1/4 (4 equal slices of "the pie") , bro killed it on the intro.

[@charlesmartinez-irizarry7659]

He's also saying that 1.72 (Square root of pie) is less then 1/4 (.25). This brings it back saying people are dumb taking the square root when they are getting the bigger share.

[@AlarikMac21]

@@charlesmartinez-irizarry7659it goes even further if you separate the 3.14 into saying there’s 3 1/4 and Eric is saying they all got 1/4 ie 4 1/4 in which case 4 1/4 or 4.14 is greater than 3 1/4 or 3.14

[@leonwilliams3221]

You lot are frying my brain…. Guess that makes me Dumbo 😭😭

[@jasonh5700]

So for the what’s the square root of 3.14 (3.1 for) I believe he’s saying that there is no reason to get complicated with how to divide the pie because they divide it equally. All four get 1/4. Dope!

[@unknownx7252]

​@@leonwilliams3221😂😂

[@mandownhc]

Pi=3.14 which is a circle.. the Square root of pi is 1.77 but you can break the pie up into 1/4 and they all get a piece of it with the compote (which is the jam). They stay eating together.

[@ads7223]

Am I the only one that always listens to Coast amazed at how long they go off (and getting mentally exhausted) and then when they finally stop, I wish there was forever more.

[@yamabushiwarrior996]

The sqare root of 3.14 is the sqare root of Pi (mathematical equation of a circle). So he mentioned the "Pie" of compote and playing off of that thought of Pie vs Pi (the equation of a circle). Plus, like in his previous rap piece he said he keeps his circle small like Cheerios, he goes into his sceme about the group being 1/4.

[@krysisstorm2703]

Also, a circle within a square. Them 4 all having 1/4, where 4 is a square number, 2 being its square root. A square having 4 sides, 4 corners, and 4 quadrants which have 90° angles. 4 90° angles is also 360° which is also a circle! Literally a pie in a box!

[@MTG_Scribe]

It also connects to him having just said "humble", as in "Humble pie."

[@jasonh5700]

So for the what’s the square root of 3.14 (3.1 for) I believe he’s saying that there is no reason to get complicated with how to divide the pie because they divide it equally. All four get 1/4. Dope!

[@hemigod2]

The main thing about their set up is that they don’t need a music video with visuals, they give you all of that, and more with just their words alone. Powerful

[@ankhhafnakhufu2322]

[@dche00]

4:00 I love your face expression when he starts to scratch and beat-juggle his own verse. :D

[@Q_up]

The more I listen to this joint I'm putting things together. All of them schemed off of each other. This is absolutely genius!!! If this is what they were going through during their 6 months gone everyone definitely needs to support their movement. Eric set the bar for what the rest of Coast had to say. Dumbo... I'm guessing Eric is speaking to someone in NY maybe Coast was being offered record deals but separately and not as a group so Eric saying he's serving "humble pie" to those guys, he calling them dumb with that pie breakdown. 😂 they all deserve the royalties cuz they are the pie they all got equal parts of the pie. RAS talking passion in his verse he spazzed. He's also talking about people "birds" it hit hard. He basically talking about how he's been grinding day and night but he was battling with all the crap that was being thrown his way. Rio took a nice turn flipping the positive outlook that he learned probably when he was growing up and maybe that's how he looked at what they were going through to get through it. The ending tied it all together he's talking about being true to each other and the group so no use trying to break them up. Their truth is not palpable to the mainstream. While Coast is trying to live their every day lives surviving this is what they are dealing with having to tell mainstream they just trynna focus on the money instead of the truth. This boys is new school real hip hop and they need to stop being compared even if they got styles like others that made it before them because they have made their own lane in hip hop they are today hip hop. Eric with that f'n turntable verse ras spitting to that crazy beat, Rio turning on and off his language, and the last twin just taking us home with that old school fresh summarization doesn't get any better than this!!!

[@g.j.hunter]

It's 3.14 which is the circumference of pie. The whole pie. But each of them have 1/4, which is .25, a quarter. They each have 1 piece which makes a full pie - all 4 pieces. The full circumference diameter of a circle. They all four make a complete circle.

I can't believe you missed the Slum Village reference. You did say you can't get to everything, but that was a good play on words. Then last dude, with playing with words, he talked about rather being YOUtilized than Idolized. Then that HEIR to the THRONE, smell it through your nostrils flows into the STOP & BREATH. Bro this shit is nuts. They definitely went in with the intention of blowing minds and separating the weak from the strong. They trying to make them wack rappers QUIT!!! You even said in the beginning, you were inspired by these guys. Other dudes would say they give up. Ain't no beatin that lol As much attention as they already get, they're still underrated. Great reaction my guy!

I think “we out Dumbo” means they’re out in DUMBO, the neighborhood in NYC (Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass) Then there’s pie/Pi, the first being “humble” (humble pie). And it doesn’t matter what the square root of 3.14 is because they all get 1/4.

Dumbo, Neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York, one of New York City's premier arts districts, Gentrifying from an industrial past, so there's also a strong culinary art emergence.

Awesome reaction BP. Do the main ones I see that you’ve either missed or just didn’t call out would be the first in the pie scheme when he started talking about humble as something that was good to be coming up in the industry, but also reverting back to humble pie the old saying about eating humble pie when you’re Braggadocious. The second one would’ve been the Demar Hamlin bar when he talked about dying on the field with the bills killing him. Multiple doubles field or life, bills as in what we all have and the bills like the Buffalo Bills, surviving the bills that are killing us and damar Hamlin surviving on the field after his cardiac arrest. I think I’m even missing some in this whole scheme it was absolute insanity. These guys are the absolute right now. 0:01
