That's a hell of a way to quit your job.

I misread the title as "Drake: Take Cake" and I was all "damn right".

God, I love the phrase "backpack rapper". I can't think of another term that so succinctly and accurately summarizes an entire group of artists and a genre of music. It's the polar opposite of the word "hipster". A+.

I'm not sure Date Rape made the top 40.

Assuming you had no grasp of the context in which it became popular, almost any song from that mid-late 90's, rap metal shit is inexplicable. Korn, Limp Bizkit, Adema, any of that quasi-grindy nu metal shit just doesn't make any sense, especially if you didn't listen to it back when it was actually popular. It's just
