I always thought this song was about Muhammad Ali and the many other boxers that needed boxing as a way out.

Took me a little longer to appreciate this track, but damn, it's awesome. Mos just rode the instrumental throughout. Madlib is the man.

@cudderzahhh I don't think it's about boxing. It just uses boxing as an idiomatic tool... there's definitely a bigger meaning there than "I'm a good boxer". "Triple beam aint the best way to weigh your options" is an obvious drug dealing reference... a "block job when the block turn jobless". It's about dancing with the system, and kicking its ass. But the fact that it all goes around a Ali quote is BA.

@Timchang1 You are free to think what you want man, I'm not saying Drake is bad but the concept of the album is egocentric.

@marlymarrr but the line that precedes that line must be quoted as well...it all coincides. "Block work when the block turns jobless tho triple beams ain't the best way to weigh ya options SMARTS get smart witcha smartness too busy surviving...."
