The Prequel

[Pharrell & DJ Drama]
I mean, you know what it is. You see it, man
I was inspired by Slick Rick, you know? Like, he used to just come on TV and just shit on niggas real quick. Like... just shit, like, you know? And just wave his fingers around the world and call us "crumbs" and shit
I was hurt, stunned, astounded, amazed, and dazed, and confused as a child when the nigga did the "Young World" video, the "Hey Young World" shit. That shit changed my life. So, you know, when you see me rolling around here, you know, looking like Slick Rick, you know where the fuck it's coming from. You know what I'm saying?
So, for me, I wanted to, you know—I wanted to have a conversation to all my fans, you know what I'm saying, that's on the water in the hood, doing what they do, on that grind every day, 'cause I know that—I know what that is, you know what I'm saying? (Uh-huh) And who's the grimiest nigga in the street? (Uh-huh) You know what I mean? (Uh-huh) DJ Drama (Ill!)
And especial—I mean, it's my first mixtape and shit, know what I mean? There's more to come, so, we 'gon do what it is we gotta do.
