Wale does his thing to let you know what time it is which a solid spoken word flow that segues in to a full-on, beat-backed blitz.

It worked as one of Ambitions precursors, and was the last project Wale put out before signing to Maybach Music Group. The first sample goes back to "The Artistic Integrity" and lets the scene ride out just a bit longer. Julia Louis-Dreyfus makes an original appearance, on "The Vacation From Ourselves," joking that her kids will think she's cool for being featured on the "mixtape, mutha fucka!" The track also features of the Season 9 episode called "The Butter Shave."Ī couple of years later, in 2010, Wale released More About Nothing. During the bridge, Seinfeld says, "What were you thinking? What was going on in your mind? 'Artistic Integrity'? Where did you come up with that? You're not artistic, and have no integrity! You know you really need some help.and a regular psychiatrist couldn't even help you." In "The Pitch," George Costanza tries to convince NBC executives that he has "artistic integrity." The joke is that George doesn't have integrity when it comes to anything. On the contrary, "The Pitch," is a really hilarious sample, and it also does prelude the direction of the song. The mirror made him hurl, his reflection disgracefulĬan't be held against you in any kind of wayĬuz under every nigga, there's a little bit of Kramer It came to the point he couldn't look 'em in the face There's nothing he can do, he let it get away So they just keep going, saying nigga in his face He couldn't tell the difference between an a or er The things they say went a little too far The white boy sees this as a clearance, now itsĪnd that little nigga nigga, thinks its okayĪnd he's the only nigga in this particular grade He thinks Aw, forget it, its so insignificant and little Until a black friend kinda hear it, just a tidbit Incorporate this lyric to their everyday living Recite it to his friends who, by the way, ain't niggasĪnd say nigga, nigga, nigga, my favorite rapper did it The track sets the very serious tone for some of Wale's realest bars to date.Ī nigga write nigga in a lyric, expect the white boy to omit it Michael Richards, who played Kramer on Seinfeld, kicks off the next track, aptly titled "The Kramer." However, the song has nothing to do with Richards' character and everything to do with a racist rant that he had an comedy club in West Hollywood. Judging by who's at the top of the game, his plan may be working. Wale rhymes about the industry's shadiness and how hard it is to make a dime off album sales, and alludes to a "plan" he has where hip hop fans care about the message instead of just hot beats. After a strong four song introduction, the first Seinfeld sample introduces "The Perfect Plan." Not only does George Costanza's quote kick off a great hip hop track, but it actually sets the tone for the track.
