The Timbo track is NUTS but overshadows Jigga too much…Sounds like he’s trying to catch up to the joint. He’s trying to be witty like old Jigga on tuff beats (i.e.”N***A What, N***A Who”)…I was actually getting used to him on these soul sample tracks again…lol! Drake was/is the highlight on this track. He would’ve DEFINITELY stole the show if given a verse.
