Little Nicky was always the favorite of his father, Satan, even though his brothers were more powerful and had higher status being older. Drake may also be hinting at the fact other rappers in the game are growing unhappy with his increasing popularity.

The opening of the verse is a comparison between Jay’s flow and his skills in bed, the two main aspects of his life at the time. His condo was only used for sex and for thinking about rhymes, and on his last tape (Vol. 1) he was bugging out, as he does in the bedroom.

Jay’s early flow was rapid fire, similar to the way a TEC-9 fires. Keeping the weapon on full automatic can result in a jammed pistol, and Jay utilises this fact to take a shot at Nas, who rapped on “It Ain’t Hard to Tell”:

Jam like a TEC with correct techniques

A weapon left on automatic can overheat as well, needing to be cooled before proceeding.

As Jay said way back in 1995:

I produce like Jizm

He’s never running out of ammunition.

In certain situations, an NFL head coach can challenge an official’s ruling by throwing a red flag. Here’s a picture of Lovie Smith wasting a challenge like he always does:

A great, chill song to thank Mac Miller for–
Why?
You’ve probably added it to your playlist of songs to listen to while high.

Samples Linkin Park’s “Runaway” interestingly enough.

Don’t pick on Cons, he’ll school ya!
Even if he may buy his long-sleeved shirts a size too small.

Irony in the fact he’s claiming to be the smartest, but says cleverest, a made-up word. Cons, you funny beefing rapper, you!

Cons is gonna keep this beef going until he feels everyone listening knows what’s really going on with GOOD Music, Pusha T, Q-Tip, and whoever else stands against him.

In fact, expect to know by Sept. 22nd, the official end of summer.

Enjoy the life while you have it; live in the now. This “right now” is scheme similar to what Drake preaches in “The Resistance.”

I’m holding on by a thread it’s like I’m high right now
The guy right now
And you could tell by looking in my eyes right now
That nothing really comes as a surprise right now
Cause we just having the time of our lives right now

This is similar to a Jay Z line from his track “Imaginary Player” where he spat:

“You know I spit that other shit
That’s the nice motherfucker shit
Fed time follow me around, deep cover shit
