And that's the story of Michael Young History. A hip-hop tale that's hard to forget.

Back to "Food & Liquor," The Cool returns. He digs himself out of his own grave and heads back to his block. Ends up getting robbed at gunpoint, the same gun he was shot with.

The Die (feat. GemStones) YouTube video by Lupe Fiasco - Topic

"The Die" is where the rightful paranoia comes in to play, Michael is being warned by Lupe that people want him dead. The contrasting verse by GemStones is from the view of the one plotting to end The Cool.

The Game begins to make promises to Michael, he's glad his daddy is gone so he can easily influence him.

"They say The Game has a belly of a beast, blunts for fingers, and hollow tips for teeth"

"And so begin our reign
The Trinity: Her, and I, caine"

A now older Michael meets The Streets and The Game on the track "The Coolest." She tells him all that she will give him, greatness.

"They say The Streets is a demon in a dress"

He Say She Say (feat. Gemini & Sarah Green) YouTube video by Lupe Fiasco - Topic

On "Food & Liquor" we are introduced to Michael Young talking to his father who's absent in his life. He had no positive male role model as heard on "He Say, She Say."

Do you remember "The Cool" by Lupe Fiasco?

I went back to listen and revisit the story of Michael Young History, a.k.a. The Cool.

I still can't get over one of my favorite champions coming to 2XKO. Senna is my most play League of Legends champ and I just knew there was no way she would be in this game, I love a surprise.

Enablers are just as bad, he’s definitely an idiot for standing there taking him serious.

That’s usually the case. He’ll go right back to it soon enough.

Putting my camera to use after a while

I need new glasses

What flavor?

I know I’m not alone

Coffee break

I don’t remember a single song from Wicked.

It’s crazy cause I only drink socially and it’s never much anymore. Alcohol is harsh on your body period
