I didn't think much of this song, since it's fairly forgettable, and sounds just like every other Drake or Lil Wayne song we've heard the last few years. But the video redeems it all for me. It's a tribute to fallen Bay Area rap legend Mac Dre, and it features multiple shots with my favorite rapper E-40. Seeing these guys in a big-time trendy rap video makes me so happy. E-40 is 44 now, and Mac Dre was never a well-known commodity, so hopefully this gets people interested in Bay Area rap again ahead of E-40's upcoming triple release in March. Even if this song is almost laughably uninspired.
