Check me out
Look
I know perfect timing feels like I'm too late
And I know I'm still great in spite of my mistakes
You know it's authentic, every rhyme I say
My only regret is I made niggas wait
See, ain't too many like us, we like vintage Bape
And I don't fuck with busters, I can't integrate
Grew up with these killers in my living space
Lotta niggas folded through them village days
Citywide, gang and junction police raids
L.A. Times, Rollin 60s, made the front page
I vowed to never let you ditch and seal my fate
Sellin' dope with hopes to graduate to real estate
I knew I was drummin' to a different beat
Felt it in my stomach, I was just unique
We decided we gon' let these digits speak
Then we turn Slauson into Venice Beach
S 600 Maybach, platinum dealer plates
Wake up in this penthouse to the cityscape
You know it's authentic, every shit I say
I knew self destruction ain't the only way
Sometimes perfect timing feels like I'm too late
But I know you're still great in spite of your mistakes
Before you run your race you gotta find a pace
Just make sure you cross the line and fuck the time it takes
I got out the county jail 2008
Couple months I dropped the tape then I was on my way
My first single out it set the streets ablaze
On location shot that video in front the cage
Tryna find my way through this fuckin' maze
Every concert, hundred niggas on the stage
I'm still active so it's really just another day
Promoters paranoid to book you, that affects ya pay
And when you stop eatin' that affects your weight
And when you get hungry that affects your brain
See me I'm not trippin' I respect the game
I hope y'all do if I can't make I'm gon' take your chain
See ain't too many like us, we like vintage Bape
And I don't fuck with busters I can't integrate
I know perfect timing feels like I'm too late
But every single time I drop they tell me I'm the great

Nipsey Hussle, pseudonimo di Ermias Joseph Asghedom (Los Angeles, 15 agosto 1985 – Los Angeles, 31 marzo 2019), è stato un rapper, imprenditore e attivista statunitense. Considerato uno dei pionieri del movimento hip hop West Coast, Nipsey ha guadagnato fama per le sue rime introspettive e il suo impegno sociale nella comunità di Crenshaw a Los Angeles. La sua musica affrontava temi come la vita quotidiana nelle strade, l'imprenditorialità e la lotta contro la violenza. Oltre alla musica, Nipsey era un imprenditore di successo con diverse attività commerciali, tra cui la sua etichetta discografica All Money In e una catena di negozi di abbigliamento. Era anche un attivista per i diritti civili e il miglioramento delle condizioni di vita nella sua comunità. La sua morte prematura a causa di un omicidio ha suscitato grande dolore e indignazione in tutto il mondo, con molti che lo hanno ricordato come un'icona culturale e un esempio di successo contro ogni ostacolo. Tra le sue canzoni più rappresentative ricordiamo "Victory Lap", "Double Up" e "Last Time That I Checc'd".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
