    Got the opportunity to hear some new Jay Rock today. This song has a throwback feel, with a Dr. Dre type beat, with hard drums and a soulful piano melody. It is not the flashiest song, but Jay Rock and his guess feature both deliver very aggressively in their verses, ranging through topics about Gangs, and some real street s---! The hook is pretty catchy, and feels reminiscent to old school Black Hippy/ Jay Rock mixtape days.

    Rate : 7.5/10
    Any thoughts?

    I'll add more when I listen to it more, but for now...

    The beat is almost identical to Still DRE... Which makes it sound kind of suspicious, but the lyrics can't be found anywhere online. Jay Rock is on his usual grind. Rapping about hard s--- and killing people... The hook is pretty good, but nothing special. This isn't a standout Jay Rock by any means, but it's good. I'd give it a 7.5/10 right now. It also doesn't have as much rapping as I woulda liked. Only one verse from Jay Rock and the guest.

    T1, the DJ for Ab-Soul and TDE forwarded it to one of my homies a couple weeks ago. And he sent me the song.

    If T1 sent you party nauseous, please don't ever leak it

    That song is golden and I'm selfish to where I want to keep it to myself

    Yeah, it was supposed to come out in 2012-2013. Good Kid, Maad City era. I think it was right around the time Gaga remixed BDKMV
