And T. He had a loud and shameless knack for Seussian riddles and vulgar puns that sounded like no other pop music that anyone, rappers or otherwise, had ever made. At the time, it was fresh. Is it the stench of pop crossover?
The fact that his signature penchant for goofy over-enunciation inevitably sounds quaint now that so much Southern and Southern-influenced rap music is decidedly slurred and sung? Now, however, I permanently associate it with the image of Tom Cruise dancing in the closing credits of Tropic Thunder , which has transformed the song into kitsch for me. DMX was writing poetry.
