I heard 50 talk about "When Doves Cry" in a new song and Nas also mentioned P in the song he had with his dad in the begining of the year. Does anyone know what they said? It does feel cool to see folks give our boy some respect.

PEACE

That's the only Prince songs they know of. When Doves Cry and Purple Rain.

"Bridging The Gap
from the blues to jazz, to rap
The history of music on this track
Born in the game discovered my father's music
Like Prince searchin' through boxes of Purple Rain
But my Minneapolis was The Bridge
home of the Superkids
Some are well-known, some doin' bids"

NAS: Bridging The Gap

Good lookin' out

Last year I woke up with good luck, damn it feels good
On the low, I done fucked like half of Hollywood
Had yo' favorite actress, from yo' favorite shows
In my favorite position, you know how it goes
And my Bentley bumpin Prince shit, this is "When Doves Cry"
This is what it sounds like when hollow-tip slugs fly
Homey this is somethin you can ride and smoke to
Stay on point, cause niggaz will ride and smoke you
Jealousy's for women but some niggaz is bitch made
They make you wanna run across they head with a switchblade
They point the finger at me, sayin I'm bugged
My flow's crack, you listen? Your fuckin brain's on drugs
Look ice drippin on my neck, hands grippin on a tec
Fool trippin threw a set, you can get yo' ass wet
Cards messin up my deck, screws loose show respect
You try to come at me kid yo' ass better come correct

50 Cent - "Ryder Music"
