I just found out that there's an entire track with Nikki, Chief Keefe, and Drake. This came out one month ago. Am I slacking? Like, how in the world did a Drake and Onika Tanya Mirage track collaboration pass my radar? Obviously, I'm just going to assume that this is now on any DSP because I ain't seen it. So maybe because it's only on YouTube SoundCloud, I haven't came across it because if you don't know, I feel like I've graduated into only listening music on DSPs, which if you don't know is downloadable, something providers. I don't know, whatever. Spotify, Apple, Music, Amazon, those type of platforms, so you have to sign in and not just stream on a free account.

So with that being said, Nikki's verse ends off by saying I just kill five people with. one sub ocean gate if this was originally on for all the dogs i see why he left it off Nikki sometimes gets into this flow where she's rapping and then she ends off with so much emphasis that just disrupts the whole bar it's like if it was a genuine delivery of her lyrics i think some people would not say it's dated but the dated flow of emphasizing whatever you're saying at the end kind of takes away from the whole line itself. It's like you're trying to force them to get it,

but you don't need to do that. I mean, being one of the greatest rappers of all time, falling into the trap of your old flow, which in turn makes it sound dated, I think is counterproductive when you're such a great lyricist. Like, writing that verse was fire for this track, for all the barbs, quote unquote.

But delivering it was a different problem in itself because you have the lyrics and now you're delivering it in a way that's emphasizing the last word trying to make people get it when it's okay if they don't. You're already one of the greatest rappers they ever touch mic. If they don't understand what you're saying by now, then they will just never get it. So for Nikki, in this verse, I think it's fantastic lyrically. But then the delivery gets to the point where it's definitely a 20, 16, 20, 15 type flow. And the reason I go back to that point is because if you don't know, there was a lot of emphasis in inspiration taken from the one, the only, Big Sean, before he used his rapping ability to get himself a wife and just disband or disappear from the game.

He was currently giving us some of the greatest flow. and lyrical delivery that we've ever heard. So a lot of inspiration came from Big Sean, I believe. And people started to rap a little bit like Big Sean to the point where a lot of emphasis was happening on different double and triple entendres,

which now, granted, he's not really active at all. Like I said, he got a wife. He usually, he literally cashed in his lyrical status which at one point had him literally in the top three rappers as far as who was the best. People was having that debate and was putting Big Sean's name in it. But he cashed that in for Junae Iaco, which I ain't mad at him, you know?

You cash it in for Junae Aiko and completely just disappear from the game. Your fans should be upset, but that's just me. As a rapper that was once my favorite at Big Sean, and for him to completely disappear and leave us alone, I think that's the biggest travesty that I've experienced in my high school career because that's how old I was when y'all get it. So, Nikki, in this track for all the barbs,

is interesting because it doesn't really flow like the original track, which makes sense as a remix. But I think the lyrical ability, along with the delivery, makes it in such a way, whereas I'm glad that Drake left it off and Nikki was probably like, oh, you're going to use my, you're going to leave my verse off? Well, guess what?

I'm a remix it and put it out as promotion for Pink Friday 2, which is the next segment that I'm about to get into. So click, so click my link tree in my bio, let me know in one of my social medias. What do you think about Nicky Minaj, given her rendition of,

what was that track originally called? I'm not calling it that. give me one second obviously it's for all the dogs the album but i'm talking about the specific track with chief keef which at first listen i will say what's my favorite track obviously it's changed all the parties featuring chief keith that's what she remix entitled on this for all the barbs on her youtube channel which you could probably find on whatever streaming service or um yeah that's basically any stream not any streaming service but um Spotify not Spotify what's that place called SoundCloud, SoundCloud, YouTube,

any place where you don't have to sign in and a stream is literally worth like half a penny. But anyway, that's besides a point. So anyways, Nick Minaj, Drake, Chief Keefe, for all the barbs, click my link to you and my bio and let me know one of my social medias.

Have you listened to this track that I had no idea was out? And did you think it was fire or trash?
