I was loving the first half of the song, but then that beat change just took it to another level.

the fact that Labbi was openly gay from day one and the fact that Eminem's introduciton to the world was based on this song is the biggest irony I could ever imagine.

Thanks for sparking my interest in Wings more deeply. I love most of Paul McCartney's work and his time with Wings was phenomenal. Studying the whole catalogue over the next week minimum.

Paul McCartney is the king of this when it comes to music generally and not just hip-hop.
The first song that came to my mind when I read the topic was McCartney's "Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey".
