    TargetLloyd Banks

    MeaningWhat it means: In “You soft fabrics,” The Game portrays Lloyd Banks as frightened or unwilling to stand behind the aggression shown in public. Why it was said: The Game attacks 50 Cent and G-Unit after his removal from the group and the collapse of their public reconciliation. A diss threat depends on the audience believing the speaker will confront the opponent; calling Lloyd Banks afraid is designed to empty that threat of force.

    Whoever knew G-Unit made pink stilletos?

    Block noteUses a pointed question as an accusation

    TargetG-Unit

    MeaningWhat it means: In “Whoever knew G-Unit made pink stilletos?,” The Game puts G-Unit's conduct on trial through a question that is meant as a challenge, not a neutral request for information. Why it was said: The Game attacks 50 Cent and G-Unit after his removal from the group and the collapse of their public reconciliation. The question shifts the burden onto G-Unit: any answer must accept the premise raised in the lyric or explain why that premise is false.
