    Yo, if the patreon hits $1K by April 1st, I’ll start the script for an RC review of my old song "Oh My God" that just became a meme! www.patreon.com/rapcritic (I'll do a Best/Worst of Masta Artisan stream if it at least hits $750) ((and No, it's not an April Fool's gag, I'll actually do it!))

      I don't get this process. Just review it or don't. Why wouldn't you just review the song while the meme was at it's peak and capitalize off of it. Odd marketing tactic

    I suspect that 'backseat lover' is a play on 'backseat driver', as in someone who sits in the back while giving (unwanted) instructions to the one who's actually driving.

    IIRC, when Run-DMC were in the studio making "Walk This Way" with Aerosmith, Run-DMC thought "Toys in The Attic" was the name of that band that made that famous break. It was actually Aerosmith.

    When Steven hit that run for “talk this way,” it oozes sexual energy that just makes it better than the original. This was definitely a game changing collaboration.

    I think Anthrax and Public Enemy’s Bring the Noise is an incredible glimpse of how rap and metal could work, pity so many terrible nu metal bands decided they could do the rapping as good as Chuck D and Flavor Flav. Most of the musicians weren’t a patch on Anthrax either.

    Goddamn legends. I was a little too young for prime Aerosmith, but I was in the perfect sweet spot for Run-DMC's rise to power and this song mind blowing. You can mix... rap, and... rock? Just amazing. And yes, the lyrics, both versions, make no damn sense ;)

    Pretty sure “gave her a little kiss” is about “going down”, especially since Tyler sings “just give me some h**d” instead of “just give me a kiss” in some live versions.
