Nate Rose - Egos

Copied!

{Intro:}
Nate Rose got my stock going way up

{Chorus:}
(uh)(shit)
I heard they checking for me
No-one checking on me
So I had to go run up a check (run up a check)
I got the message homie
Ain’t no flexing on me
My attorney gone call and collect (call and collect)
Blessings on blessings for me
My success has only
Made em envious they got upset (got upset)
I had to put all their egos in check

{Verse:}
I want the money, the power, respect (yea)
And I heard you know so and so you not a threat
Cause I really know so and so
They like my family so they gone pretend that they cool
Till they bust at your mufucking chest (yea,yea,yea)
I’m getting gutter
My flow been like butter
My check in the bank, when they see the number
All of my haters feel one of two ways
Really upset or they show some respect
I can’t even think about it
I been up, so read about it
Don’t beat around it
Straight to it
No ring around it
You coming for me?
We’ll see about it
We never see ya, when I kick my feet up
100 meters way I run the fee up
It go Cha-Ching an onomatopoeia
I had to re-up on the re-up so you stay defeated
And put it back into the bit cause I don’t really need it

{Chorus:}
(uh)
I heard they checking for me
No-one checking on me
So I had to go run up a check (run up a check)
I got the message homie
Ain’t no flexing on me
My attorney gone call and collect (call and collect)
Blessings on blessings for me
My success has only
Made em envious they got upset (got upset)
I had to put all their egos in check

{Verse:}
I had to (oh shit)
I had to, uhhh
Put all they egos in check
You’re not entitled to anything else
I got 10 years of this under my belt
Your art isn’t art they don’t feel it (yea,yea)
So nobody hears it and it should just stay on the shelf (stay on the shelf)
Your ego done got in the way (go bitch)
It gotta die today
It gotta go
You should be happy I lightened the load
The weight of your arrogance, heavy as stone (as stone)
I make an appearance, they already know
That chip on your shoulder gone crumble and fold
It’s not a secret that you have been fearing the shit
That I’m on so you back to the brag and the boast
But I’m in a class of my own

{Chorus:}
(uh)
I heard they checking for me
No-one checking on me
So I had to go run up a check (run up a check)
I got the message homie
Ain’t no flexing on me
My attorney gone call and collect (call and collect)
Blessings on blessings for me
My success has only
Made em envious they got upset (got upset)
I had to put all their egos in check

Biography

edit bio

Nate Rose is a hip-hop artist & creative often referred to as the “James Bond” of rap for his debonair demeanor and emphasis on intellect. Exploring relationships, business, and politics, Rose touches on topics with a fresh perspective backed by tasteful instrumentals and eloquent delivery.
Rose participates in every level of artistry, having developed skills out of necessity for a thriving career. The Nashville native handles all the production, graphic design, and video production for his projects, which collectively encompass his artistic vision, actively maintaining creative control over each stage of his work.

“This white boy is f*** #DOPE!!” says Houston based hip-hop blog, Diamondz-n-Wood. “From the artwork to the production to the lyrical content and delivery… I was supa impressed. I see him doing some big s in the FUTURE.”

With more than 1 million combined streams across listening platforms with no label backing or external investment, Rose has built an organic fan base through intricate lyricism, decadent melodies, and a strong desire and drive to be one of the greats. He has sold more than 1,500 physical copies of his debut Polymath EP, setting a precedent for his newly released CrossFire EP, which features Bay Area newcomer Rexx Life Raj. In addition to a successful physical campaign, Nate Rose has a strong social media presence totalling 26,000 combined followers across major platforms.

HipHopDX says, “[Nate Rose] is definitely an artist worth follow…on and off Twitter.”

An explosive live performance landed Nate Rose on several grandiose stages, including Eaglepalooza alongside multi-platinum artist Keri Hilson at the University of Southern Mississippi, Import Alliance at the Kentucky Speedway, and The Raider’s Choice Awards. He has also shared the stage with Chicago legend Twista, Ying Yang Twins, OG Maco, and Caskey on separate occasions in between headlining events. “Tea time” with Nate Rose, backflips on stage, crowd surfing, and live freestyles are among the antics you might anticipate at a Nate Rose show.

“My creative process is a selfish one,” says Nate. “I write from experiences, and having full creative control over how I want a particular song to sound, what I want to say, and the effect I want it to have provides an avenue for artistic transparency and honesty. However, when I’m on stage is where it is no longer about me. My sole purpose in that moment is to provide the most entertaining show that I can for the people that paid their hard earned dollars to see me. It is a humbling experience, knowing that you are reciprocating that energy back to the people that make my career as an artist possible. It really is a beautiful thing.”

Rose grew up in Cleveland, TN, a small city with a significant lack of a music scene. With limited resources available, the hip-hop emcee was forced to develop a plethora of skills in order to progress his career. His passion led him to studying music business at Middle Tennessee State University, receiving a formal education in a thriving artistic community while simultaneously developing his craft.
His music is ebullient and honest, swathed in genre-bending rhythms that stem from his diverse palette of musical influences ranging from Drake to System Of A Down. His records radiate energy and intellect, equally fitting for a club setting as well as a fireside chat. With this concoction, you can feel productive about turning up, knowing that you’re learning something while doing it.
