Chorus:
Street dreams are made of these
Niggas push Bimmers and 300 E's
A drug dealer's destiny is reaching a key
Everybody's looking for something
Street dreams are made of these
Shorties on they knees for niggas with big cheese
Who am I to disagree?
Everybody's looking for something

This came out the same year as the original Street Dreams. Who knows, this could have been put out first but Nas wanted to troll 2Pac by tapping on his own beat. The lyrics from the Kelly version sounds more like Nas’s style.

NY Rappers in the 90s were majority, very much far from ignorant....Nas came from the same "school of thought" as Rakim, Tragedy Khadafi, AZ, Talib Kweli and other rappers that were influenced by the 5%ers, NOI, Malachi Z. York, and others int he NYC black conscious community in the later 80s and early 90s. It was street niggas that were "kicking knowledge" and sharing information with each other about self, while still going out robbing and drug dealing for tax free money.. Hip Hop was all about knowledge....even Smack URL the battle rap league, stands for "S.treets M.usic A.rt C.ulture K.nowledge". It was definitely an interesting era in Hip Hop when there genuinely real substance and profound poetry in raps--while still maintaining a hood appeal, and attracting real gangstas to listen.

There's something about this track that makes me tear up a lil. I guess it reminds me of the 1990's (with the boy band symphony), for the time it was released was in the heat of a lot of confusing beef, whilst at the same time, the genre itself was also at its peak. When Nas said Hip Hop is Dead, he never meant it literally. He meant the culture behind what the music spoke had died; the streets had changed since the 1990's, thus, from what artists were seeing in physical form was changing the lyrical form of their music. The streets had become a little less raw, and from this song, I see it as the last triumph of 'real street lyrical talk'. One Love.

This was a fly ass video. I took it for granted when I was a kid. I always liked it but didnt realize how good we had it. This song got heavy spins back then. Nas and Kellz when he was in his prime musically

"But what's the purpose, only the gods can watch the earth twist, I'm physically trapped down on the surface". You can put that next to Sartre, Camus, or any of the existentialist philosophers and it would provide just as much clarity and insight on the struggle for meaning.

GTD9002 But Nas 3rd verse summarized his assent into the game... I tried to learn the game, only thing I found incredible: everything I learned I ALREADY KNEW, so its embedded in my heart now. So I can sit back and count a stack now. I loved his verse on Verbal Intercourse and his 3rd verse on this remix is right up there with Verbal Intercourse.

I like to thank the founder of KZfaq for creating ways for the world to look at their favorite artist videos. I use this site as my Yo MTV raps channel. Without a doubt the 90's hip hop era was very dominant with artist like Nas, Big, Pac, & Jay. So many great songs and memories growing up listening to these legends just makes me proud that I grew up to hear great hip hop. These young cats just don't know what they've miss. R.I.P. to great music!!
