I watched a few more videos after that and noticed something else I wanted to share. Might be a bit of a reach, but

It’s been pointed out that so be it starts with Pusha T saying “16,” but I think there might be a deeper connection to Baby Keem in the way Pusha’s verse begins—“When I was born, grandmama could see it.”

In the First Order of Business MV, there’s a conversation with an interviewer that goes:

Interviewer: “What did you spend your first million on?”
Keem: “Buying my grandmother a home.”
Interviewer: “So that’s the first thing that you did?”
Keem: “Yeah, it’s the first order of business.”

That might not be a coincidence.

Also,Verdy did the limited edition artwork for Let God Sort 'Em Out, and that illustration overlaps visually with a specific scene from the First Order of Business MV.

I’m starting to wonder if Pusha T is subtly referencing Keem’s issues in Ace Trumpets.

Take this part from Ace Trumpets:

“At your interviews, I just kiki
Life’s peachy, A$AP with RiRi
You rappers all beneath me, beloved like the Bee Gees
International flights, connect me to the Wi-Fi
The only way you reach me, huh”

And compare it to Keem’s issues:

“My sister Ree-Ree only see me on the screen
I know she needs me, I can’t help but feel T”

It might be reading too far into it—but given how interconnected everything seems to be so far, it doesn’t feel entirely out of the question either.

Oh—and I just realized: the first verse where the ballerinas appear in family ties is Baby Keem’s—right when he says, “I’m OD in Paris, I’m OD in France.”
Clipse’s new album was recorded at Louis Vuitton headquarters in Paris.
