He acknowledges that this whole Hip Hop movement started from the song Rapper’s Delight (RD) by the Sugarhill Gang.

“Reasonable Doubt” by Jay-Z was the next album he heard after “Illmatic” and thought it was a revolutionary album for Hip Hop.

He compares his father who took care of his family through the hard situations, to his idols that took care of their families in their own tough situations.

Looking back at it, he still can’t believe that he was just a kid when he was listening to real Hip Hop.

Listening to these raw/explicit lyrics at such a young age taught him a lot about life and about trusting others as well as never giving up on his dreams, no matter the situation he was in.

This is a reference to the 50 Cent’s song “Corner Bodega” off his “Guess who’s Back” album which Def heard around the time he played his first Sega console. He is comparing Nas' lyrics as being addictive, just like the drugs that were being sold in Bodega at that time.

He was 7 when he first heard the legendary album “Illmatic” by Nas and knows that nothing could compare to it.

Bring him his rolling papers so he can chop up the weed and roll it.

Nothing better then having sex while high.

He hates playing board games like Pictionary when he is high since he always loses.
