I don't listen to much rap music. But lately I've been playing Eric B. and Rakim's ground breaking 1986 album Paid in Full over and over again. Seems to perfectly match my mood. Big Jimmy gave me some really nice headphones which I have plugged into my iMac so I don't bug my office mates with the constant repetition.
Thinking of this
you keep repeating you miss
the rhymes from the
microphone soloist

So you sit by the radio
hand on the dial soon
as you hear it
pump up the volume

I think "I know you got soul" might be the best rap song of all time.
