"And I'm only 23, I'm the shit, now look at me."
[re: Maboo and Shawn]
I can't wait 'till I turn 23,
so I can tweet that Meek Mill line.

SAMEOLDSHAWN
I feel like there's a line for every age.

SUPERFLYRONALD
What's that Jay-Z one? "Young cause I'm 32,
flow like 18, something-something, dress like I'm 23.

SAMEOLDSHAWN
But isn't that line about Jordan? The 23?
And Magic is 32, right?

MABOO
But it's young like I'm 32. He's talking about his age.
SUPERFLYRONALD
Drake has a lot of them. "I just tell the truth
and so I'm cool in any hood spot, twenty one years
and I ain't never a met a good cop."

MABOO
That's a blog post right there.
