Ant and Tee were absolutely compelled to discuss the Kendrick vs. Drake tête-à-tête so we gave Box the night off so we could break it down from the beginning to where it sits currently.

Would you look at that, the boys are back in town and boy do we have a treat for you. Inspired by a tweet by Donwillof Tanya Morgangot you 80 minutes of music history and discussion.

We are discussing opening bars of songs, why they are important to us and their place in Hip-Hop history as well as our personal history with these songs.

As always, there will be a Spotify Playlist to go along with this ep, enjoy.
