    lots will disagree but I thought the twist with the homeless man being god in how much a dollar cost was pretty dope

    That Dance With The Devil song is cool

    Kick, Push never reveals it explicitly but it changes your perception when you realize its about selling drugs

    @rapmusik HMADC seemed kinda weak to me, like something a pastor would write as a short story

    Oh, Bad Religion too. Those last few lines, "I could never make him love me".

    Biggie Smalls - n----s Bleed



    I know @WPG probably has some thoughts on it. I had mixed feelings hearing it when I was probably 14. The story itself is told so well and the twist is kind of an open ending. I think it's a ballsy way to finish the song. Every step of the process is so methodical and well delivered only to have a little mistake intervene.

    Atmosphere - Yesterday



    I definitely prefer the earnest and emotional approach Spawn dealt with the loss of his father on Caved In, but Yesterday takes its own approach and hides its intentions pretty well.

    It's easy to joke about now, but Dance with the Devil was groundbreaking to me when I first heard it.
