"Jesus died at age 33, there's thirty-three shots
from twin glocks there's sixteen apiece, that's thirty-two
Which means, one of my guns was holdin 17
Twenty-seven hit your crew, six went into you"

Fuck Knows why he mentioned Jesus. He had 2 guns (most likely 9s judging by how many bullets they holding), the 17 bit is cos 1 of the guns had a bullet in the chamber, and the last line is simply how many people he shot.

Classic Nas filler material. And I am a fan. He has just as much filler as he does gems.

lol....Uk Hip Hop explained pretty clearly in my opinon.


 


I think he just included the line "Jesus did at age 33" mostly just for the reptition of the number 33; jesus death included that number and the "death" scene he detailing involved the number 33 as well....


 


That line was tough for me the first dozen or so times I heard it, but then I realized it wasn't that it was overly compllicated it was that I was trying to make it more complicated than it was.


 


lol @ dude who said you need rosetta stone to decipher nas's rhymes...

do your math...

  • jesus died @ da age of 33
  • 33 shots
  • from glocks =32 shots
  • 1 of the gun had 17 bullets (xtra bullet) other had 16... which makes =33 shots
  • 27 shots to your crew + 6 shots to u =33 *he basically rhyming in full circle back to the # 33*

**if u ask....who is he talking bout, i have no idea
