Why The Song Is Dope: A very #rare meeting of minds between Marvin and the Based God, this is Lil B in straightforward lyrical mode, rhyming in the cadence he gets when his based freestyles are at their most structured and rap-focused. It's by no means an essential part of the Lil B opus, but it's a great showcase of his talents and his soul-baring worldview, particularly with the early salvo of “Talking to you I'ma tell you what I feel inside / A whole lot of pain and bitch a whole lot of pride.” —KK
