This is such a great collaboration

It calls backs to early hip hop while being something undeniably brand new

I'm not exactly up on rap artists. This does have a nice feel to it.

Rakim is on of the godfathers of my favorite era of Hip Hop - the MC of the duo Eric B. and Rakim

This one always makes me smile

J. Cole is a younger artist that I'm not as familiar with - But I like "False Prophets" pretty well.

Still a little too much sexist/aggressive alpha male posturing for me, but he's clever and he can spit them syllables
