NoCando is sick of the egos within the rap game and comes to the conclusion that eventually the biggest rappers in the game will be dethroned. The dethroning will be similar to the assassination of Julius Caeser. The reason for the assassination was because of the fear that Caeser would overthrow the Senate and become a tyrant. At the time, Caeser was recently declared Dictator perpetuo.

The fear for the oppressiveness of Caeser’s actions is referring to the possibility of a prevalent mainstream sound that restricts the artistry and experimentation of rap.

This is a reference to the 2004 four film, Maria Full Of Grace. In the film, a pregnant 17 year-old becomes a drug mule, swallowing a total of 60 wrapped pellets of cocaine. So, just like Maria is literally filled with dope (commonly referring to heroin but may, also, refer to cocaine), so are NoCanDo’s raps filled with dope (nice, awesome, cool) lines.

Basically, NoCanDo is implying that people steal his style. To be swagnostic can be interpreted as having gnosis, meaning knowledge in Greek, of swag.

He could also be referring to agnosticism, the view that the existence or non-existence of any deity is unknown and possibly unknowable. Swagnostic could be seen as a portmaneu of ‘swag’ and ‘agnostic’, referring to him being a swagged out agnostic.

Charlton Heston played Moses in the 1956 film, The Ten Commandments. The film is the story of Moses, who led the Hebrews out of Egypt.

However, R.A. isn’t Charlton Heston in the Ten Commandments but more like the real-life Charlton Heston who was the president of the NRA

This line refers to Olympian Marion Jones’s use of illicit performance-enhancing drugs which she admitted to in 2007 (losing all her medals).

These steroids were administered by injections, commonly called “shooting up”. Vinnie Paz will shoot you up with the Ruger much like Marion Jones shot up steriods.

Vinnie assumes responsibility for the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy who was the 35th President. He was assassinated in Dallas Texas on November 22 while riding through the streets with his wife, Jackie Onassis.

Apparently, Oswald didn’t act alone

This line refers to the famous Chicago Steppenwolf Theatre Company which Vic knows about because he is a Chicago native. Much like it is showtime when the Theatre Company steps unto the stage, it is showtime for Vic when he steps out for a concert.

"We invented rock before the Stones got through" (Chance The Rapper – Everybody's Something) | pending

Also, it could be a possible reference to Chess Records which was a record label based in Chicago. Famous for having many artists such as Chuck Berry that influenced later rock bands. The Rolling Stones have a song entitled 2120 South Michigan Avenue which is a reference to a location of Chess Records where the song was actually recorded.

"Chance, ho, I said, cruising on that LSD" (Chance The Rapper – Favorite Song) | rejected

Chance is, also, referring to an old famous song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjNSmAl7hF0

Earlier in the song, Em says he prematurely ejaculated on her belly which is “below the ribs”

"Felt like the initiation, a reality living in the matrix" (Drake – Buried Alive (Interlude)) | accepted

Weeknd reference?

"I'm a black star in a black car with a black card" (Childish Gambino – You See Me) | accepted

Yes, it is a nod to the motif of Jay-z’s but “black star” is an obvious nod to the rap group of the same name (Mos Def and Talib Kweli). Gambino is a fan of Mos Def

"I'm a black star in a black car with a black card" (Childish Gambino – You See Me) | rejected

‘black star" might, possibly, be a reference to the Talib Kweli and Mos Def rap group
