This skit is better than most artist's whole careers.
I'll be honest... all I got out of this was "be original" and don't rip me off.
Is there more to it?
On the other hand I feel like this gave me an insight into the album/history rap than any other intro... with Superfly/Crack, dysfunctional family leading to the only "way out" being gang life, etc. from The Notorious B.I.G.

Rae and Ghost are just the greatest shit-talkers, and their disdain for other rappers is palpable here. And whilst there isn't much being said here, what is being said still holds weight today - rappers with mainstream ambitions are still biting those with real creativity. _________________ 2021 in full effect. Come drop me some recs. Y'all know what I like.

Ok cool. Thanks!
I guess I didn't understand the claim that "This skit is better than most artist's whole careers."
I at first was like... hmmm... this skit is better than R.E.M., Dr. Dre, Andre 3000, Rolling Stones, and Radiohead's, etc. whole careers... and I didn't quite get that. But maybe when you are saying most, you mean all the stuff I'll probably never spend time listening to?
But I think maybe it was something like... this skit shows how terrible some people's careers are... they just rip off other artists?

Nah, it was just hyperbole to emphasise how much I love that skit. _________________ 2021 in full effect. Come drop me some recs. Y'all know what I like.
