• I have thoroughly enjoyed this song in various settings that I have heard it at, especially basketball arenas. However, my love for the song does not sway my perception that it is quite deficient.
  • For starters, the background does not even mention the album presented in the infobox.
  • The composition makes no attempt to describe the instrumentation or synthesizing.
  • It is hard to understand what it samples and interpolates. Greater detail should be presented. Are we talking about specific lyrics or instrumentation?
  • Should the commercial performance describe how long it lasted in various charts?
  • The LEAD has details about the production of the music video that are not in the main body.
  • The article could use some images of its artists.
  • There is no discussion of the clean version "My hitta", which is what I hear in my car. What are its distinctions from the explicit version other than the main rephrane? Which version was released when?

• Since the main body of the article does not mention the official album and the popular clean version we know that their are extensive deficiencies in the article. I am FAILing the article.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 09:34, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

• @TonyTheTiger: Talk about cutting hairs. The song was released over half a year before the album, no wonder it is not significantly discussed. Yet that is not relevant at all. This is hip hop, we do not have reliable sources going in depth about the instrumentation or synthesizing. Unless you support WP:OR, then that is not likely to be included. You are just wrong about the music video point, I just checked myself. Everything is in that section too. It would take five minutes to handle images. And yes there is a clean version that replaces the word Nigga with Hitta and masks other explicit words, because you cannot say "bad words" on the radio... This is rap, I no way have I seen any article discuss the explicts used in a song and how they cover it up for the radio version. Why would this need to be discussed? This was a very rash failing if I have ever seen one. STATic message me! 16:02, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
