Lyrical Lecture is where you get to hear a selected quotable straight from the artist. The artists were asked to spit a verse from a song that had significant meaning to them. The Diplomats were the first to get down with the lecture and here are the verses that they chose to speak on. Artist: Jimmy Jones Song: Beautiful Noise Album: Diplomatic Immunity Comment: Well this verse right here really means something to me My hommie Castro is gone for 5/ I send my prayers do ya thing cause I be going for mine/ We live life to 365, nights on a strike that’s a bullet/ Uncle Ricky gott’em off on some change/ And it feels like the garbage is dump’n the pain/ All on my shouldas, I’m warn’n my souljas/ The nights can get chilly plus the mournings much colda Artist: Juelz Santana Song: Who am I Album: Diplomatic Immunity Comment: It’s a real personal song about the time I spent in the game and about my relationship with my mom Momma, I just want you to know I'm in love with you so, if you wasn't here I'd be in love with you soul My angel, mommy I'd die faithful Just knowing somone tried to violate you I'll slide 8ths through the side of their facial Squeeze and rip apart a side of their facial I'd take a slug, eat a bullet, swallow a gun Shit, you gotta know I'm your son Damn, this type of love, could only come from a son Hold up mommy, I'm twisted I'm drunk...listen When the Diplomates dropped these verses live, they did it with the same intensity that one would expect from a studio session or listening to the album. From just hearing it you felt the emotion and realness.
