Welcome to the Sports Motivation podcast. This is Books and Bars where I'm breaking down excerpts from my favorite books, bars from my favorite rap lyrics, and sharing them with you and sharing the knowledge behind them. All right. So today is a bar. I love breaking down these bars for you guys, especially when it's a verse like this. All right. So this song, this is from a song by Dave East,

who's a Harlem rapper. He used to be a hooper, I heard, a basketball player, good one, apparently.

And I think he dropped out or stopped playing basketball to pursue rap. And I'm really glad to see

that it's working out for him because he's nice.

I've known he's been out for a while, but I've never really listened to him a lot.

His latest album, Karma 2, really got my attention and had a ton of tracks on her that just

blew me away.

And this song was one of them.

But the verse that I'm a highlight for you is actually from Fabulous, who's a rapper who's

been out for a while.

But Fabulous absolutely brings it on this verse.

And I love this track.

And so what I want to do really quick is, of course, share the verse with you, let you hear

it.

And then I'm going to break down the knowledge and the

wisdom behind it and what parts made me say, oh shit. So, B crock. Drop that.

Yeah.

New levels bring new devils. Never let it turn you devil. Call and play so the team went. Coach

K to my blue devils.

They were transporters like Jason Stater.

Now they balled like Jason Tater.
