When 50 Cent first came in the game with Ghetto Quran – he had dirt on everybody. His name drops pulled the cards of many prominent individuals within the streets. Now, what Fuego Base did is not similar to that but still very impressive. Let’s decode his song – Heavy D.
We counted about 20 different artists namedropped to complete the lyrics of this song. Note: These are not complete lyrics – only the lines with namedrops.
[Verse 1]
100 grams of Mac Miller in that 03z &
I can bet half a mil somebody OD’d B
Tryna beat me & get Black Robbed
Fuck Shitty* cuz me and Nipsey cool
In the passenger of the Burban lookin Biggie smoove
Hit slums tell my ***** pass the Mac Dre
Im workin Tupac (2 pots) they want 2 P’s in AC
Your life’s a Big L & you smoke AZ
[Hook]
The China fine when we set the table
Sellin Kane like Big Daddy record label
Awh what a Rush (Simmons) when the Chev Revvin
Sellin Heavy D like the dead legend
[Verse 2]
You ain’t feedin ya army so ya Souljas Slim
We was pullin out guns to keep our Bankrolls Fresh
Wish Von just let his 40 go
When my bitch had boosted warrants I kept Shawty Lo
Bet if Base ain’t get it then my DJ’s Skrewed
Type to snatch the bitch and let her Pimp C
Got a TRIAD connect getting Chinx Drugz
We thought this was a very refreshing way to compose a track. This song is a standout on, “Biggest Since Camby” and that is really saying something.
Other distinguishing moments:
- When Fuego Base went 4 bars for 4 bars with Rick Hyde on Take a Look.
- When he continued the name dropping theme but did it for his Black Soprano Family on House Phone.
“Rather ride blowin L’s in Reno – 38 Spesh in that Elcamino – A Harvard ***** will let his shxt fly – Before you ever see Rick Hy – Benny helped me see my dreams through – So we killin over Heem too.”
Later on he goes, “Bring Gunns from the Westside over City Boy.”
“To this B$F shxt I done pledged allegiance – United We Stand Divided We Fall – If I ain’t say ya name it ain’t enough lines in the song.”
