Got way doper on the second listen. I started to catch more shit in the lyrics. Definitely feel like this is a grower. But I love that it's so raw and honest. Even at risk of making himself look like an asshole.


I heard that he literally just woke up one morning at 4:44 am, and that's when he wrote the song "4:44" and because he and beyonce have both always been so weird about the number 4, he saw it as a sign or some shit and thats why he named the album that. Even Blue Ivy's middle name comes from the roman numeral for four; IV.
lmao that's a pretty fucking stupid way of picking a middle name if true
