Uh, Fiji water granddaddy purp
Excuse me I let the semi-automatic burp

@prosperitydwellings1208

@carsondouglas8600

🔥 he just said its takes up to a month to come up with 2 bars, because he has said so much, he dont want to repeat a line or even mix it up.

@willnoucamp

Dgaf what anyone says, No Ceilings is one of the best mixtapes ever recorded. In my top 5 easy. Every song straight fire. Wordplay, similes, metaphors unmatched. Feel like this was Weez at peak.

@maingod1709

And I think he was on his way to rikers as well I may be wrong but I know it was round that time

@hasben0

I'd say drought 3 is better but it's close

@hoodietiger2178

Facts 💯 killed Jay-Z on his own song and he wasn’t even trying to
