Keeping up with the theme of failed high school/college standouts that never amounted to nothing, these guys obviously were kept with very high self-esteem growing up from all the attention they were given, this ego that they have grows bigger and bigger every year they they were the center of attention, so now that they are broke they have a need to find something to hold on to, to still feel like they matter and a lot of times they claim possession of their hood or street when in reality they probably don’t even own their own house, CyHi is telling them that this is American and they don’t own anything around here, especially not the neighbourhood.

Many rappers claim to be “harder” than they are, but Cole knows they’re nothing in comparison to him. To be “hard” is to be tough, to have street cred.
Rappers such as Drake have been accused as being “soft"—weak in the face of adversity or danger, inexperienced when it comes to matters of the hood.
Cole’s 2014 Forest Hills Drive, the album he dropped before “Planez”, had the highest first week sales of any rap album in 2014, with 371,000 copies sold, all with little promotion and no singles. The project was also well received by the fans.

Dikembe Mutombo is an NBA legend known for his shot-blocking ability – he is #2 on the all-time list, with 3,289 blocks (and finger wags.) However, not even Dikembe could block Cole from getting with his girl if he puts his mind to it.
It’s no coincidence that Cole drops this line after comparing himself to MJ. Dikembe bragged at the 1997 All Star Game that Jordan had never dunked on him—later that season, MJ posterized him in Chicago.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlwUFA5Sric.
