That was a good primer. Extra points for calling out what I consider one of the best hustle raps that ever was made Aquemini.
That song takes cues from DOOM style. A meandering dense story, that flows, but is super introspective.
The setup is pure hustle "work the cheese, bread, and dough [endo]" is a DOOM style point in a point. Drug hustling. Andre also pulls a left turn right from the start "Once upon a time, there was a boy who died, and lived happily ever after, but that's another chapter" that is such DOOM flow.
Anyways, RIP DOOM. He was very clever. It was like watching Simpsons on Seinfeld multiple times, so dense you pick up on something like the 10th listen through. He also influenced a lot of the best lyricists and pushed them to be great by showing the way.
