    I've heard --- too, just couldn't remember it off the top of my head.

    what danny bars stick out to you? what's some of his memorable stuff to you?

    and before we go any further, danny is dope to me. I'm just not picking him over Royce.

    If I had to rank the rappers from Detroit I have in rotation, it'd have to be:

    Danny
    eLZhi
    Royce
    Black Milk
    Em

    HM: Boldy James, Illa J, Slum Village, Obie Trice & J Dilla

    Actually im wrong --- is his second album, his first one something else but I heard its not very good and from the cover art I would probably agree lmao.

    As for the bars Danny has tons of classic bars like the obvious penguin/glasses lines but I think the reason we wouldn't call him lyrical is although his bars are memorable theres not a ton of wordplay like you get with Royce.
