I'm glad to see people recognizing the Joey bad remix, he's blowing up and the amount of talent he has he deserves it

I love the static for some reason. It makes it more authentic and the overall beat puts you in the vision of the life they were struggling through

I want the gold chains and diamond rings, but I just can't live my life like this.

Joey Badass was the first person I thought of when i first heard it

Not to date myself but I remember first hearing this in around 2000 when I started college...

You gotta know pain to compose pieces like this

one of the best rap verses ever went on this beat. must be an honor for lewis parker

This is the type of dope beat I could listen to all day, respect to Lewis Parker

this beat makes me speachless... some beats dont need a verse :D

Sit back and kick this slick track while I spit facts/ distract your mind from the strict path of time / a true story that's remained holy / never told never unrolled / never touched never discussed / never as much as been sussed or surplussed/ clutched by the last remnants of conscience / a lust, a young love / a prodigal son / a young brother clutching a gun / on the run, from one that once called him his son / and he's done, already had his fun/ clutching tightly to his gun/ knowing nothing he did can be undone/ the hoes the blow the radio shows the clothes/ the accelerating growth rate of hate for his foes / the life he chose / contemplating the way he rose/ how and why no one knows/ with the gun to his head the trigger blows and his body turns cold/ and the story remains untold/ buried with his bones and a broken microphone

This is one of the sickest beats ever! no lie

I fell in love with this beat the first time I heard it

This beat takes me places never seen before by my mind’s eye

Lewis Parker is returning to the UK this summer to make an appearance at Boom Bap Festival June 5th-7th 2015.

S/O to Lewis Parker, one of my favorite producers no doubt. Thanks for the upload. I've been making beats for 8 months now and finally have a few on my channel. I'm all about instrumentals with a smooth flow. LP is a huge inspiration to me, so I hope I haven't offended anyone with this comment. Much respect to all!
