I bought Enter the Wu-Tang: The 36 Chambers today, if that makes things better. To be fair I've never heard their names pronounced before.

2 kids that I knew once tried to act like they knew hip hop and were calling out how much they knew about the "arzeeay" and the "geezeeay"... Me and a buddy just looked at eachother and laughed.

Oh come on man, don't be a dick. I love hip-hop, you love hip-hop, can't we all just get along?

These kids were talking HUGE about their knowledge of "Underground hip hop" which didn't apparently include Del.

Bragging is shit unless it's braggadocio

Del ain't underground lol

Del ain't underground lol
