With the bolded bit, are trying to dissuade people from thinking you're insinuating Macklemore is misappropriating rap? Or is it that Macklemore's misappropriation of rap is so galling that it doesn't bear mention except as an aside?

He means appropriation in the visuals, not counting the lyrics. Don't be dense.

"Rap itself" seemed like it implied the entire institution of rap. It could have been a reference to some argument where Macklemore shouldn't be rapping because he's white or something - I don't know.

Anyway, whatever. I just realized I misread what the guy wrote. A silly mistake.

Haha, I love this one.

I loved the skits on Capital Punishment, they were hilarious too:

I know this isn't a skit but is an interlude but the beat is lovely. Though I'd say it becomes a skit when Pun tries singing at the end

Skit chat... I really like the ones on the Sir Lucious Leftfoot because they are short and sweet and always slotted at the END of songs so you can skip them if you want. I think that is the best way to handle skits. Separating each onto its own track is OK but really bloats the tracklisting. Anyway this is my favorite:

I think you guys need to revisit that song again and listen to the lyrics.

"Preying on human ignorance, Popular immorality
Symptoms of disease head, population mislead
Self-indulgent past dead, absent to the God head
Pimps pushers and harlotry, nepotism no artistry
Despotism and piracy, desperation dishonesty
Business discussion policy, more money less equality
Inflated global ego, imitating reality."

"It's like post war, their looking for the communist, who the Marxist is,
10 thousand pictures on Facebook, it's like the pot calling the kettle narcissist"

Neurotic Society is brilliant

I think you got the lyrics wrong, they're more like this:

I like how at the end of the video how khaled is talking to drake in the club with subtitles of what he wanted drake to say in the video. Drake probably looked at the premise for this 10 minute youtube "movie" and laughed and told Khaled he didn't have the time.
