    Not just sonically but literally

    Hookup culture


    The Iraq war


    The age of information

    how is "bombs over baghdad" topically ahead of its time lmaooooooo
    i mean, no, that sound only existed during the height of def jux. it could only have existed when it did.

    "jazzy belle" is obviously a very good songs but its content sux

    The "Now they dykin'.....nasty b------s." line definitely sounds a little more bitter and slightly homophobic in retrospect. Especially in this age of commonly-propagated sociopolitical awareness.
