I’m getting older now. With that, I think it’s time to admit the truth

    I always thought that Takeover was a way better Mobb Deep diss than a Nas diss. Still amazing all the way tho. That kanye beat just makes me pick it over ether any day.

    You’re getting older? That’s strange. Most people don’t age. You see a doctor?

    It works better as an actual song imho but I think Ether is better because it was mostly facts(Hov's obsession with Nas, being a dickrider who hops on trends, biting Biggie, etc.) while Takeover was mainly Jay disguising his opinions as facts(It Was Written being "nah", Horse being Nas's bodyguard, MC Serch owning Nas's publishing).

    So, as an actual diss record, I still consider Ether superior.
