Tony Montana, George Jung, Terrence Thornton, Pablo Escobar, Shawn Carter,
Griselda Blanco.
Let the lyrics tell it, the world is to believe all of the aforementioned figures are cut from the same cloth.
Jay Z and Pusha T are live and direct for their first ever official collaboration (the two reformed street pharmacists squared off on Big Brother Kanye’s “So Appalled” off 2010’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy) and the result is what longtime listeners could have anticipated; an smorgasbord of sly references in having a backstory that involves transporting dusty packages.
We’re seeing a lot of Jigga post-Lemonade, as his appearance on Fat Joe and Remy Ma’s “All the Way Up (Remix)” has already become a 2016 mixshow staple. Could an album be on the horizon?
While the answer shall soon reveal itself, the meantime, get your nose numb with the first single off of the elusive King Push and the “Drug Dealer Anonymous” lyrics provided by Genius.
[Verse 1: Pusha T]
Valentino summers and wave runners
Chains on my niggas like slave runners
Drug dealers anonymous
How many Madonnas can that Mazda fit?
My brick talk is more than obvious, it’s ominous
Garages, the phantom, ghouls, ghosts and goblins
Blonde mohawk the collection I’m Dennis Rodman
The money count is the only moment of silence
Cause hush money balances all this drugs and violence
Hat trick under my mattress
Date I stop still has an asterisk after it
After all I can make a call
I can baptize a brick
As I wash away my sins like a catholic
Who the fuck ain’t mastered this
America’s nightmare’s in Flint
Children of a lesser God when your melanin’s got a tint
And I can’t even mention what I sent or what I spent
Cause my name in 18 wheelers is evidence
I put my boos in those cruise collections
Life’s a bitch
A to Z on her shoe collection, take your pick
Paid in full like ’86, Gs on my body
The new Gucci has less monograms, God’s got him
Let he without sin cast the first stone
So I built that all glass quad level first home
Shatter all of your misconceptions
Hold all of them missing weapons
You thought I would miss my blessing
The ultimate misdirection ya
[Skit: Tomi Lahren]
Your husband was drug dealer
For 14 years he sold crack cocaine
[Verse 2: Jay Z]
Federico Felini in the flesh
Sergio Tacchini inside his mesh
Bitch I been brackin’ since the ‘80s
Google me baby, you crazy
’89 in London pull the Benz up
Type it in, Google’s your friend bruh
14-year drug dealer and still counting
Who deserves the medal of freedom is my accountant
He been hula hooping through loop holes, working around shit
IRS should’ve had the townhouses surrounded
Thanks to the lawyers
I marbled the foyer
I tore the floor up
Yeah, that’s for Koi fish
We been dining on oysters
I walk though the garage it’s like multiple choices
I told ‘em pull the Royce up
I’m getting ghost, I’m hearing noises
I think it’s the boys, but I been banking at Deutsche
We got storefronts, we got employee stubs
We been opening studios and 40/40s up
The paper trail is gorgeous
Cases we buries ‘em
Before Reasonable Doubt dropped, the jury hung
Bling bling
Every time I come around your city bling bling
My tenure took me through Virginia
Ask Teddy Riley ‘bout me
Ask the Federalis ‘bout me
Tried to build a cell around me
Snatched my nigga Emory up
Tried to get him to tell about me
He told 12, “Gimme 12”
He told them to go to hell about me
Drug dealers anonymous
Y’all think Uber’s the future, our cars been autonomous
Mules move the drums, take ‘em to different spots
We just call the shots by simply moving our thumbs
I’m a course of miracles with this shit
Nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists
Herein lies the piece of God
I always knew I was a prophet, but I couldn’t find a decent job
Life made me ambidextrous
Countin’ with my right, whipping’ white with my left wrist
Daaaaaaaamn Daniel
FBI keep bringing them all white vans through
Not gonna lie — I cringed when Jay said “brackin” lol.
This is Hov not giving a Fuck!!
Bruh this shit right here is crazy. They both murdered it but Hov is nuts with the wordplay
this nigga pusha braids stayed the same length since grinding tho…
zzzzzzzzzzz
Who else but these two. Illest shit that I’ve this year
See Nas stans? HOV raps about what he actually did. Nas ain’t pushed even a gram of coke in his life. Had to make up his Esco’s Trash persona to fabricate his drug dealing stories. And HOV killed that verse effortlessly. He’s back for the summer, while Nas is hiding in his cardboard box. LOL
Stop it. That beef was over 10 years ago bruh FUCKOUTTAHERE.
Nas sold drugs. Then realized it wasn’t for him… Do u not follow hip hop at all…
He’s an idiot. he even has a documentary detailing his drug dealing days and how his best friend got killed in front of him.
lol how many these rappers ever seen a brick? Jay was selling $20 bags of powder coke living with his mom in the projects. He was one the first rappers to do the whole fake it till you make it.Nas sold crack and quit when he had money for studio and ill will got murdered n his brother jungle got shot…………………………..this track fire pusha should of had more bars tho its his track sup wit that?
Guess I’ll have to wait for the album because I’m not buying that tidal nonsense. Ever!
Bruh how old are these 2? Talkin bout bricks. Beats on point the both did they thing but come.on bruh this drug dealer persona is wack af especially if ur not known presently as not drug dealer. In other words gtfoh mann
You want something you can dance too huh ? Just go listen to drake album then.

Shut your yung ever came outside with the ghouls and vultures azz up. This real rap.
aight man damn, you seem like you going through some shit. She’ll be back Pusha T and Hov ain’t got shit to do with you being bullied as a teenager. This song reminds you of the cool table you couldn’t sit at and we understand. It’s plenty of music on Tidal you can stream through to get you through these tough days. Hey even Drake’s latest album is on there too he has some awesome jingles. Try it out.

Selling drugs is so cool!
Big gucci has real cred unlike this fraud jay z. Jay never moved big weight Nas was no queens thug. The wutang clan werent about that street life. Eminem isnt a street fighter that will fight anyone. Big gucci killed a man, he sold drugs, he beats people up, he runs the streets, he runs the jails. Big gucci raps about facts not fantasies like all your favourite rappers.
Congrats! You ❤️ You Some Gucci.. Now let’s get back to the music(turn this shit up????)
Congrats! You ❤️ You Some Gucci.. Now let’s get back to the music(turn this shit up????)
Everyone you named shits on Gucci tho…
This is hardbody!!
wow I still love rap post 2005, had no clue until I heard good rap.
“Shits Corny” drakes voice
Drake’s voice IS corny! This shit ain’t for you softy
Drug talk is so plaYed out. dont rappers have anything else to talk about. BORING
I sold cocaine on the corner…wow what an amazing life youve lived, so inpiring.
stoopid
worst track I’ve heard in a long time…jay-z fell off hard. NEXT!
you might be a complete fa*got
just cause I dont ride jay-z cock like you do lol..kids these days. shake my damn head.
black people fight for the right to do self defeating shit.
You cant tell them crack is bad yu cant tell them glorifying crack in music is bad
Here it is 2016 and the effects of crack on the black community are highly evident
but some black people still think its cool. crack helped gentrification and blacks will
cry about gentrification then turn right around and support crack rap. SELF DEFEAT
Black people? Really? It’s 2016 buddy
Growth and change is considered lame to Ni66as….this is the same shit from the 80s 90s
I have no idea why its still considered cool when you see the effects of crack on the hood.
Thank god for cocaine, or else this rap shit would be hard for Pusha T
+ almost every nigga rapping/fake fucks. It aint cool nor is it impressive.
Keeping it real is easier said than done, facts!
Niggas will find every excuse to hate jay and pusha t, when the drop shit you fuckers get over detailed and start over analyzing, they rhymes talkin about ” they rap about drugs to much”, stop it. It’s really hate. How you complain about them, but listen to these other niggas, who talk about lean, drugs, and other bullshit. Whether or not they talkin about drugs, I’m sorry there music isn’t good as pushas or j, so stop hatin, take your generation for what it is. Cause lately jayz been on point
This shit is incredible! Hov goes down memory lane buts it’s recent. Hov responds to the “14 year drug dealer” shit by rubbing they faces in it. Flow is crazy, wordplay is foolish (hoolahooop, loop holes, around shit) ???? (Reasonable Doubt DROPPED, Jury HUNG) Jay really whipped up some shit on this one????
Jay-Z wishes he could rap on Pusha T’s level. lol I’m not impressed
You wouldn’t be impressed. It went right over your head. you need some fake shit to make you happy. lol
You wouldn’t be impressed. It went right over your head. you need some fake shit to make you happy. lol

MCs cant adopt drug dealing personas? So OB4CL and Fishscale were garbage? Even if you commiting those types of crimes, you dont immediately turn around and rap about it, and vice versa. That would be idiotic. Whether you’re dealing drugs or making music, the goal is to make money and stay out of prison. So admitting to ongoing criminal activity in your songs is tantamount to snitching on yourself, idiocy of the highest order.
Look at you.. You listened to to this record and decided to wipe off your glasses and snap your suspenders and type all the words you just learned. Next step is get a girlfriend.
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz —- i don’t even have to listen to this… If it came out 10 years ago maybe….or 15… I LOVE the older era of rap but let’s be real…when is last time Jay moved a brick… he’s a 45 year old father and business man. You think Pusha is still in the game? He’s the executive of GOOD music. Get real… Just make some music that’s reality. OR… keep feeding the kids pipe dreams of being a hustler. FAK this garbage….
bru they are speaking about their past
back when i was a young whipper snapper, i used to move bricks… lame
The only difference? JAY has BEEN rapping about this since I was in grade school. “What more can he say?”
Lol Ohh you think Jason Bourne is real…Usher Raymond gave you real confessions huh…Lara Croft must be an amazing archeologist…nuttin realer than Vince Chase and his entourage huh…yea you sound that kinda stupid! How many casinos have George Clooney and Brad Pitt robbed?? Just know they got an understanding of the underworld that you’ll ONLY learn from their music so appreciate the wordplay
If rappers rapped reality (which some do) then it wouldn’t be as entertaining(to some) or purchased
(by some). Therefore, most rappers are for entertainment purposes only. Most reality rappers are underground
did they drop a “Damn Daniel”??? BRUH
Yes!! FBI in them white Vans
So far this is tough
Come on push and hov the kiddies can’t snap dance or nay nay to this. Ain’t no hook the kids don’t know when to hit the folk. Worst of all why nobody singing with Auto tune. No drake type whining about girl yeah this song sucks all these lyrics these two using these adhd kids can’t follow this, odell can’t wiggle his hips like a female to this. Lol they rapping about things they really did gezz how crazy is that? Lol
Kids don’t want lyrics hov they wanna snap dance and hit the folk lol this song sucks lol can’t dap to this.
He’s the most one dimensional MC of all time. Not saying he can’t rhyme, but if you asked him to rap about something other than drugs his brain would explode.
jay z sold me crack in early 80’s
