It’s pretty stressful for MURS sometimes being on tour all the time, deadlines from his label, etc. He just needs to take some of that stress off sometimes with a cig or maybe a couple shots.

Everyone has stress, some people decide to try to self-medicate with things like weed, tobacco and our most common choice, liquor.

Since you’re sitting here having a cig with MURS, why not just take two? It won’t do much more.

Tobacco, especially commercialized brands like Newport and Marlboro is horrible for your respiratory system. With each puff of tobacco MURS is killing himself, he might as well kill his new friend too.

People who smoke cigs, their hands, breath and clothes reek like shit. Absolute shit.

In ancient Greece, a nymph was an attractive woman who had an insanely big sex drive.

Now it’s basically slang for a young girl who sleeps around a lot and has much sexual experience for her age.

If music was like woman, Rakim would always be fiending for a fix of hip hop.

Eternal means everlasting, never ending.
An eternalist is someone who believes that all dimensions of time are real instead of just the present.

By saying this, he is implying that these rhymes don’t have an expiration date. 20 years from now, people will still think this song and anything Rakim has written is a lyrical masterpiece.

A lot of people of the Hindu faith have a dot on the middle of their head. It is a symbol of Hinduism and represents divine sight.

If you see a dot on your head, you’re not a Hindu, it’s a dot from the gun that Buckshot is holding. Most commonly, it is a long range rifle with a scope and laser that has a strong red dot.

When Buck says “That mean you’re withdrew” he could also be saying “That mean you’re Windu”, referring to the Star Wars character Mace Windu who was killed in one of the movies.

WorldStarHipHop is a “hip hop website” known for it’s raunchy content, most of the time reinforcing black stereotypes. Most emcees do not like Worldstar.
