Amid the rumors of what really ended his marriage with Kelis, Nas sums up the entire episode so that it no longer needs to be addressed.  But while Nas is forthcoming about the events that led to their breakup, he is also enraged about those who chose to judge him rather than judge themselves.  He states, “Saying ‘why did Nas trust her?’ but look at yourself, speak louder bro/ You live with your babymoms and scared to make an honest woman out of her and make her your bride/ Fake bitch you ain’t even alive/ At least I can say I tried/ Plus enjoyed the ride.”  Escobar lays it down over an unforgettable Aaron Hall vocal sample from Guy’s “Goodbye Love” from their self-titled album from 1988.  It’s a combination of Nas and New Jack Swing.  Teddy Riley would be proud.
