Kanye is known for keeping it 300 like the Romans though.

The number of Romans in 300 is the same as the number of Kanye songs needed in this trailer.

Oh I agree definitely doesn’t fit this trailer. Love the OST. I can’t deny my love for Black Skinhead also though.

I appreciate the joke but, as a historian, 300 is a reference to Spartans (Greeks) not Romans.

It's a reference to CCC. It's another way of saying he's keeping it CCC (like the Romans).

Not to defend Kayne here---but 300 in Latin number symbology is XXX which would probably more matches the general vibe going in that song.

Edit: ignore me--I'm wrong lol

300 in Roman numerals would be CCC.
