Linking your own Wiki page is some real rap shit :mike:

He did a lot of his own annotations on Genius for the lyrics to his Ziggurats tape
The ambition at the time was insane. Even dropping The Catalyst as a first single was absolutely bonkers at the time. That vocal effect on Mike...
Need a song where Mike just freestyles/scatting nonsense for a good verse. Something akin to Fear or the intro to Blackbirds. Maybe make it part...
At least he even bothered without the “Not Good” clickbait he did during the 2017 controversy with One More Light. I remember he refused to review...
Flow from another galaxy, know hating just a fallacy My stick so big, it’s phallic, jeez Coming up on another salary Making dough since I broke...
The Emptiness Machine- LT Cut The Bridge- MTM Heavy Is The Crown- LT Over Each Other- OML Casualty- THP Overflow- ATS Two-Faced- Meteora Stained-...
For real tho. Mike’s delivery, rhyme schemes, the instrumental, Chester’s crazy melodic chorus, the bridge, fuck…that is how you open an album....
I think Mike’s rapping had more much more interesting rhyme patterns and vocabulary on Wastelands but I think I prefer HITC instrumentally. To me,...
Agree. Just like Nobody Can Save Me off OML, this song just resonates differently than any other track on the album. I will give credit where...
I was not expecting this to sound the way it did and while I think this could have used more electronic elements, I do say it’s growing on me. The...

I like how much Mike’s flow and lyrics are almost exactly how they were in 2003. I’m sure that was intentional on his end to harken back to that...
Mike’s vocals are reminiscent of his solo work in the last 6 years. Like Casualty, was cool but definitely not my favorite delivery from him....
Shit was hard af @minuteforce @Christøffer That All For Nothing sample was dope. The smooth boom bap production reminded me of Big L’s 7 Minute...
Man was cooking with it. Harnessing those hip hop influences hard for this one
My favorite song on the album. The guitar is beautiful, the chorus is perfect, the rap bridge is Mike’s strongest rap performance on the album....
Nah but Mike looking fresh af in that suit. Kinda gave me some Beastie Boys vibe (So Whatcha Want) with his hand movements too
