Wale Name Ring Bell

Wale certainly has a few classic projects under his belt. The Mixtape About Nothing remains a high-point in the blog era while 2012’s Folarin remains a fan favorite, especially during his tenure under the MMG umbrella. Fans have long asked for a sequel to the project and on Friday, Wale delivered.

The rapper’s latest body of work, Folarin II arrived roughly two years since he dropped, Wow… That’s Crazy. On “Name Ring Bell,” the rapper reminds everyone, including his haters,  of his run over the past decade. “A lot of my haters is mad but I forgive ’em/ ‘Cause every bad bitch in the city tatted Ambition,” he raps over Trizzy’s smooth production.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Look, I got
I got it
I g-, I got it, the sound

[Chorus]
Anyway, you catch me any day
Sippin’ Hennessey, all of my peeps got heavy chains
Who name bell ring? What
Who name bell ring?
Like (Ting-a-ling-a-ling) like (Ting-a-ling-a-ling)
Like (Ting-a-ling-a-ling) right (Ting-a-ling-a-ling)
Who name bell ring? (Ting-a-ling-a-ling)
Who name bell ring? Look

[Verse 1]
You try and make some money, some enemies coming with that
Niggas wanna troll, there’s a trophy: they get a mention
A lot of my haters is mad but I forgive ’em
‘Cause every bad bitch in the city tatted “Ambition”
Nah, nah, fuck your initials
Every bad bitch where you live tatted “Ambition”
Told me that I got it, said I been had it
She said, “I’ve been broken”, I said, “I been crackin'”
Now I’m on a scene, pocket full of green
First magazine, I was in Supreme
Y’all was in the bleachers, talking ’bout sneakers
Ask your favorite rapper, who his favorite teacher
Who he tryna be, why I gotta B.S.?
I don’t gotta be liked but I’ma always be good
Ain’t gon’ always be right but know my loyalty good
Some niggas quick to speak out but too pussy to speak up

[Chorus]
Anyway, you catch me any day
Sippin’ Hennessey, all of my peeps got heavy chains
Who name bell ring? What
Who name bell ring?
Like (Ting-a-ling-a-ling) like (Ting-a-ling-a-ling)
Like (Ting-a-ling-a-ling) right (Ting-a-ling-a-ling)
Who name bell ring? (Ting-a-ling-a-ling)
Who name bell ring?

[Verse 2]
Yeah, lay low, nobody move ’till I say so
That’s my hermano, we in Tulum stacking pesos
I remember plotting in a diner, me and J. Cole
Now we don’t freestyle ’cause I been styling in some bankroll
Rest in piece to Bankroll, y’all ain’t gotta bankroll
Y’all be talking Rolex but y’all be thinking sicko
Soldiers on the way if you wan’ play ’cause I ain’t playful
I got bitches, I got paper but I’m great ’cause I got favors
Boy, I’m on a scene, pocket full of green
Used to rock Moschino, used to sell my skin
Say I got a ego, I deserve a EGOT
Introvert, he acting like them things can’t sing out
Rocking with the team, I done brought Hakeem out
Say I need my flowers, the cookies come to me now
Bring the DMV out, glad they think of me now
Love it or you hate it but say, “Thank you” when I be out, boy

[Chorus]
Anyway, you catch me any day
Sippin’ Hennessey, all of my peeps got heavy chains
Who name bell ring? What
Who name bell ring?
Like, like, like, right
Who name bell ring?
Who name bell ring? Look

[Outro]
Ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
Ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling
Ting-a-ling-a-ling, school bell a ring
Knife and fork a fight fi dumplin’
Booyaka, booyaka, call Shabba Rankin’
Shabba Ranks disappear and tear another man chin
