"we still can claim title as one of the first groups in mainstream hip hop to fuck with drum and bass"

How can you even say (type) that with a straight face?

I noticed you threw in "mainstream" this time, which is the arguement you're going to use if you respond, a la "I didn't say we were the first group to do it, just the first..." So just because you threw in some speeded up drums at the end of the song (where is the bass at anyway?), that means you're responsible for exposing the "mainstream" hip hop masses to drum and bass influenced hip hop? I know you'd like very much to "have your hand on that torch", but it's not yours. When I first heard the track, I thought...okay...well at least he's trying, but the shit ALMOST sounded forced. "Sounded forced" in the sense that one day you would be just barely be able to justify making a statement such as the one above.
