Every quote links to the moment in the episode.
"This record's really interesting because he came up with a crew... it was actually one of Ice-T's crews. They were kind of hard gangsta rap from the East Coast. And then he went off on a spiritual journey to Mecca and when he came back, he put together this album 'Living on the West Coast.' He basically created a whole new language to create this album."

"I found out about Danny Brown I think around the time he put out 'Triple-X' or 'XXX,' '30'... I listened to his record 'Hybrid' first and was completely blown away, just from the first lines of 'Greatest Rapper Ever'... He'll say something that's really fucked up... but then he'll explain how it kind of hurts in a way."
