^^^I can explain.  Go on a drive, where it's not a very crowded street and you may be all alone on the road.  Turn the track up as loud as you can.

It's more than just the words he's saying.  It's the way that the whole verse is set up.  The track opens with him droppin a verse and his homeboy Big Syke comes in a drops a little something, sounds good.. you know, no big, big deal...... but then.... the beat just rides for a little while, and you kind of are just zonin to beat, off in your own world, the track almost sounds like it could finish... and then, Pac comes back in, and suddenly it's mystical the way Pac sounds.  Your off in your own world and the pulse that runs through your body is vibin to Pac's final verse from the title track on his biggest record.

So it's the way the verse is set up, the way the beat rides for a while before Pac opens up his grave, sits on top, and drops one final verse to make the track larger than life.

The Roots - The Return To Innocence Lost comes to mind.



The Roots-  "The Seed"... could also be a larger than life track, this song is about someone fulfilling their destiny, dropping a seed in the Earth, continuing their legacy, and their desire to make it... Rock and Roll!

Triumph - Wu Tang....when they talk about taking over the world in that song i as high and shit seemed larger then life.Looking at it sober they were right tho Wu tang and hip hop took over the world.

The track renders helpless and suffers from multiple stabwounds
and leaks sounds that's heard
ninety-three million miles away from came one
to represent the nation, this is a gathering
of the masses that come to pay respects to the Wu-Tang Clan
As we engage in battle, the crowd now screams in rage
The High Chief Jamel-Ah-Rief take the stage
Light is provided through sparks of energy
from the mind that travels in rhyme form
Giving sight to the blind
The dumb are mostly intrigued by the drum
Death only one can save shell from
This relentless attack of the track spares none

Alot people slept on eastcoast/westcoast killaz. I'm glad you saw my vision. Oh yeah, ready yourself for Detox, its coming!!!

Yes, I saw your vision, in fact I was inspired by your vision from the moment I even heard about the track in your cover issue interview in the Source summer 96', the one where you discussed leaving Death Row and starting Aftermath.  My favorite hip-hop interview and magazine of all time.  (By the way, I loved that chain you were wearing on the cover)


Ten bucks says Infinite thinks he's really taking to Dr Dre.

LOL
