Title: Question about TQ song "Used To Be" (off Shade Sheist's Where I Wanna Be Comp)
Post by: Soopafly DPGC on June 12, 2008, 06:39:31 AM
TQ talks about someone who he used to look up to, but he doesn't anymore, and it's basically a diss song but never says the guy's name.  Anyone know who he's talking about in the song?

I can be very brief about that: I don't know and TQ does not want to say who it is about.

Oh, so TQ's never said who the song was about?  I didn't know if it was just some personal friend of his, or if it was somone in the rap game that we might know.

On tqboard we once analyzed the whole song, but couldn't figure out who it is about. To this day I still don't know who it is. TQ also talks about someone (I think) in "WhatChaGonDo" on his new album. Maybe it's the same person.

Cool, thanks.  I figured with all the name dropping and stuff he's been doing lately in his writings about Cash Money, he seems to have no issues calling out the fakes and the snakes....wonder why he's keeping this guy under wraps. 

It's probably just someone he knew growing up, as he says he used to look up to him and now he doesn't even come around.  It's probably about no one we'd even know anyways.

Listen closer. Whoever it is about did have fame at some point.

Hmm, you are right.......I have no idea who it is.  Wonder if Shade knows, he produced the track, didn't he?  We should ask him.

Damizza produced it.
