“Get Top on the phone” ☎️
I wondered why I was familiar with the line when I heard it on Doechii’s "Boom Bap". Hearing it inspired me to recollect the songs I’d heard it in. So, that’s what this is…
#1 THat Part - ScHoolboy Q feat. Kanye West (May 2016)
This had to be the song I first heard the line on. And at this point — I am only noticing the line as the line. Ye closes out the outro:
I'ma freestyle this motherfucker, who knew? // When I'm with my niggas, nigga, ScHoolboy Q // And uh, Top Dawg, call up Dawg // Get that nigga on the phone // Top Dawg on the phone // Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, Haa”
This made sense. ScHoolboy Q is a longtime artist with Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE). "Top" refers to Anthony "Top Dawg" Tiffith, CEO of TDE. In a clever way, Kanye’s shouting out Q and Top for being the dope individuals they are and for their proven success in the music industry. Only after gathering songs for this blog do I wonder if Ye’s drawing directly from the song the phrase was first featured on, #2 on this list…
#2 Kendrick Lamar - untitled 02 | 06.23.2014. (March 2016)
When I heard it here, I recognized it. And then I thought “of course”. And without feeling the need to verify, I posited for obvious reasons that it was the first recording of the line in a song.
In “untitled 02 | 06.23.2014.” Kendrick bookends the chorus with:
“Get God on the phone” // “Get Top on the phone”
Kendrick seems to lean into it as reverence to Top by likening him to God, for who he is to him. So I left it at that.
I later found a Genius annotation pointing to a now removed image Top Dawg tweeted where the phrase was written on the upcoming TDE releases next to Kendrick’s entry. When I look back, this should’ve meant more to me.
#3 Boom Bap - Doechii (August 2024)
I immediately thought the use of the phrase was so brillantly delivered, sonically thrilling, all of it. So, the significance..if i had to say: Doechii’s paying respect to Top and to Kendrick by sampling his line that carries the respect for Top; and then in the same breath, flipping it in her demand for respect (and attention, resources, etc.) from Top and whomever else because, even as one of the newest TDE-signees, she believes she’s the one-next up-etc.
So then, I searched the internet about it…
#4 THat Part - ScHoolboy Q (Black Hippy remix) (July 2016)
Less than 2 months after the original THat Part was released, Q drops the Black Hippy remix featuring these lines from Jay Rock:
“If you wanna fall through, get Top on the phone // He don't pick up then it ain't bool // Let you know it ain't good to stop”
Ohhhkay - #1, I actually forgot this song existed and had only heard it once or twice. #2, now I see the more of what it means, maybe for all mentions even. For Kanye – him getting on the TDE cal, a ScHoolboy Q record and shouting Top out for it.
The phrase encompasses a lot and much of what I initially thought, I’d say, still stands. At its core, I think is a request of clearance and activation of action, topped with obvious respect. “Get Top on the phone” because we need his blessing and his guidance.

Aventurine... I'm drooling over him rn I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
Praise and soft sex with sub!aven pls <333 he needs to be happy i love him
Pretty boy who nvr came home,,MINORS DNI!! Top male reader,,soft sex,,praise,,please I need him to be happy so bad
soft and gentle sex with him would make him cry on the spot,,Aventurine is a hurt soul who is used to people wanting things in exchange for what he can do,,gambling away his chances for any connection with anyone,,
Until you came along,,you were able to break down his walls after some time and effort,,making him feel safe enough to even open up the smallest amount about his past,,
Looking up at you with a gentle smile as he lays back against his pillow covered bed,,chuckling softly at the ticklish feeling of your kisses against his neck,,his smile pure and loving,,it wasn't strained at all >□<
Gasping softly at the feeling of you intruding inside of him,,grasping onto your back as he hides his face in the crook of your shoulder,,panting softly as he kisses your skin lightly,,
"I'm sorry! I can't.. help it!" He whines out as his blunt nails lightly dig into your back,,his eyes filling with guilt that he had hurt his lover,,reassuring aventurine that it was alright to let himself go,,let himself feel good,,
Quiet tears flow down his cheeks from the sound of your praise, sniffling softly as his wet cheeks turn red from blushing so much,,even as your cock rocks in and out of him,zhe was savouring every moment he could hear your voice so close to his ear
"I love..you.." He mutters softly into your ear as he cums,,letting out cute little gasps as he feels you follow shortly behind him,,his eyes filled with overwhelmed tears as he brings you into a loving kiss!!
#{anon asks}#{h4rny ask}#{top male reader}#top male reader#x top male reader#x dom male reader#dom male reader#x bottom male character#bottom male character#aventurine smut#hsr smut#His official art dawg?? Hngh please#Listening to radiohead..maybe thats why its lowkey kinda sad lmao
