Nas "Don't body ya self" lyrics question

#1
Those that havent heard this track are sleeping (Fantastic beat, little unsure about the John Legend style sample) but this is what I want to know...

What does NaS mean when he says...
"I am De Niro after Am.Ex. commercials and "The Fockers"
With Martin Scorsese after Gangs Of New York could rock this"?
How does that make sense?

also....

"Will it be gilmore or crowes?"

Anyone clear this up for me?

you got the lyrics twisted homie, this is what he says

"I am, DeNiro after Amex commercials in the Fackas
With Martin Scosazy after Gangs of New York in Rocklands
Back together with a master plan
The rebirth of Langston Hughes, I'm that man"

Why the fuck do people continue to copy & paste the error-ridden lyrics that others have posted?!

The thread starter is almost certainly right, the only thing I can't be sure of the "rock this" & "Rocklands" thing.

"in the the Facksa" makes no sense whereas "and The Fockers" makes complete sense.

I can only imagine you people mean "Martin Scorsese" (what Nas is actually saying) when you post "Martin Scosazy" - this may be wishful thinking on my part.

Those lyrics are bullshit ones. I am correct about my lyrics and certainly don't need correcting BUT I still want to know what all this means.
