"Eminem wasn't Dr. Dre's only sick nigga" (Game – Heavy Artillery) | rejected

This line sure doesn’t mean Game mentored Eminem, as by 2005, when game released his debut, eminem was the biggest rapper of the decade. This line means that Eminem isn’t Dr. Dre’s only notable protegee, game is one as well.

"Sold 10 million records, ain't leave the hood" (Game – Pot Of Gold) | rejected

10 million is still a bit generous though…

While what you said about Royce is true this is about proof. they did have a falling out after Em got signed and blew up, you can check some old interviews where they talk about it, they came to terms later on but at that time they didn’t speal

Saying Em sold over 40 million, while true is a lil bit of an understatement as his worldwide sales stand at…86 million!

"I love it when they call me Big Popp-a / I only smoke blu..." (Game – Never Can Say Goodbye) | pending

this line was originally featured on biggie’s “one more chance” it’s a direct quotation from the song.

"Three bricks of straight flour" (The Notorious B.I.G. – Miss U) | accepted

flour is a white powder that looks similar to cocaine. Biggie sold three bricks of flour, cheating someone for a lot of money, that’s why he got his man a beatdown as described in the next line

Yeah and so is Snoop

"And everybody's the king now / You ain't gotta be nice ge..." (Jadakiss – Letter to B.I.G.) | pending

This is also a shot at 50 cent. 50, being himself a new yorker, was one of the big name rappers who were competing for the title of “king of new your”. 50 cent was shot 9 times and often likes to talk about it to highlight how gangsta and how tough he is. Jadakiss was involved in a beef with 50 and now he’s taking a subtle shot

"I walk up close, and I fo', fo' revolve 'em" (50 Cent – Make Money By Any Means) | pending

50 walks up close and resolves/revolves his problems with his .44 caliber revolver. a clever play on words

I’m not sure where the sex part came from, layin' in the cut means chilling or just hanging out
