In a rare tweet shared on Wednesday, Jay-Z responded to LeBron James’ praise of his much talked about verse on DJ Khaled’s new album, God Did.
“Listen!” wrote James as he shared an MSNBC report from Ari Melber on how Jay’s verse tackles the United States’ war on drugs, from Richard Nixon’s efforts in the ‘70s all the way up to the Trump administration. “Then listen again to make sure you got the point. HOV DID!!!! And so did the reporter! ???? TALK.”
“My only goal is to make the real ‘ones’ feel seen, forgive me that’s my passion talking… haa,” wrote Hov in response.
Ari Melber also responded with a lyric from the track:
In Melber’s report on Hov’s four-minute verse, he highlighted how the rapper uses his own story to reflect on the drug war. From selling drugs illegally on the streets, to selling weed legally through his Monogram company.
“It’s deep,” Melber said in his report. “We’ve interviewed many lawmakers who don’t come close to this level of nuance about drug policy.”
Jay’s lengthy verse on the track has already attracted a lot of attention, and not just because of his talk on the war on drugs. His most trusted sound engineer Young Guru, who has been working with Jay for over two decades, recently shared a video in which he broke down some of the standout moments from the verse.
He also attracted attention for a line in which he asserted he could “never” beef with Meek Mill. In a response shared on Twitter, Meek simply added, “Never!!!!!!”
