Riff: Young Jeezy – “Black Eskimo”

Sep 2, 2014

Ain’t no need to be excited/I ain’t never been indicted/Pussy nigga I ain’t told shit/Told shit

from Black Eskimo lyrics by Young Jeezy

As far as beats go it’s just an ever so slight variation of the same boring model: uninspiring melodies, an egregious amount of bass and percussion that is about the same as throwing a wet bag of nickels in a frying pan. If he wasn’t so busy big up’in himself he’d realize just how familiarĀ it all is.
