Every time T-Bird calls his girl, she always says she’s already on the line with another one of her friends. He feels she’s blowing him off to talk to or hang out with another man.

Jack Daniels is a relatively cheap brand of alcohol, whereas Hennessy is much more expensive. So when more black people succeed, they’ll be drinking their more expensive brand of alcohol, and finishing it all in celebration of success in a corrupted system.

Also, Ace suggests that it is better to have a glass of a superior liquor than a bottle of a cheap one. Quality over quantity.

A “flash in the pan” is something that has no value or meaning, but Masta Ace and his ideas are more than that. His songs do sound good, but they also inspire and have a lot of significance. An example of Ace demonstrating that in this song is in the third verse when he says:

“I see a black man aiming his gun,
But I’d rather see a black man claiming his son”

A “Flash in the pan” refers to something or someone that has a brief buzz, but can’t repeat what was done prior. Pretty much like a one hit wonder. Ace believes in his message and longevity.

While “curiosity killed the cat”, Masta Ace is even more than a cat with a plan, so he definitely won’t be sidetracked by curiosity. He knows exactly what he’s going for and his plan is flawless.

Despite the warm, pleasant weather, there’s a lot of violence that is often ignored due to the beauty of the big cities, which is a big problem that needs to be fixed.

This is the second sample from “The Cypher: Part 3” by Juice Crew. (Here’s the first.) Specifically, it’s the sixteenth bar from Roxanne Shante’s verse.

The sample fits the song’s theme because it implies looking back on the glory days of one’s life …
