“abbreviate him” = “abbreviate Kanye”. E.g.: ‘Ye
So.. quadruple entendre or what?
Is Kanye also saying that, like Socrates, he is a “social gadfly”? This jibes with the previous line about killing the hypocrisy (which, was a huge Socrates meme)!

are you sure the line isn’t:
“you got a pardon, Jay, for selling out the Garden in a day”
i.e., spoken by a third party?
There’s a card dealer / drug dealer situation going on here!!!
In “Decoded” Jay explains that Scarface was actually in the recording studio when he got the news. Supposedly he spit the verse minutes after
Isn’t this also a reference to the Gucci Mane song? http://rapgenius.com/lyrics/Gucci-mane/Heavy
In Decoded he says this line is about Bigg’s brother Bobalob (who was shot while driving)
Also a play on “killing spree”?
Robinson dodged the “penant”? I.e., he never won one? I don’t get it.
