This is one of the great one hit wonders of the 90’s. Everything about this I love. The lyrics are amazing and introspective. The instrumental feels like it is just chugging through an empty city. The BB King sample sounds haunting. The song also flows extremely well in and out of verses and a piano solo until the ending where it collapses into itself and disappears.
I know might seem like a bad choice considering it is a Future song but hear me out. This is the song where he pours out everything he was feeling. There are 4 very lyrical verses, and not a moment is wasted. On the surface, it seems like a normal Future song, where he talks about drugs, money, and women. But he sounds sad. He’s grown weary of this lifestyle and he’s stepping back and taking a look at himself. The beat compliments him on the song perfectly, leaving enough space for him to unload all of his inner emotions that are so rarely seen in trap music. This is the song that made me switch from a Future hater to a fan, and I highly recommend giving it a listen.
