Also an interesting thing from the lyrics of Don't Believe the Hype. John Coltrane is mentioned. That was one of the few things I understood. The word hype for example was not a word any of us knew, and I asked a guy from New York a couple of years later and he said, "this is rap, these guys make up their own language."
here it is:
Writers treat me like Coltrane, insane
Yes to them, but to me I'm a different kind
We're brothers of the same mind, unblind
Thanks, that's really cool, I didn't catch that while listening.
