Since ‘nobody did this beat justice,’ Skewby Doobie Do decided to drop bombs all over Red Cafe and Faboloso’s ode to themselves, “I’m Ill.” I can’t say how true Skewb’s bold opening line is, because I skipped the OG, but this Memphis MC definitely confirms his sickness with his slick mix of sarcastic social commentary and witty punchlines.

“He’s alone, not a clone, like the rest of rest of ‘em am
Or the rest of ‘em are, why am I making sense?
That doesn’t take you far, I should move kilos
Or rap about it a lot, become a kid’s hero
The whole elementary pull up in a Bent-a-ley
Throw money on the single moms, think that they’ll remember me?”

That’s beyond ill. That’s going into cardiac arrest directly before being t-boned by a semi.
