Rapping, deconstructed: The best rhymers of all time

This is an amazing visual exploration of hip-hop that looks one level deeper into how rap is a beautifully intricate weaving of rhymes and rhythm into something that is greater than the sum of its parts. I have a whole new appreciation for the genre. Worth every second, and the annotations/infographic style of the video pops.

Glad to see appreciation for MF Doom. The Sift has 0 appreciation for hip-hop, I have no idea of why, a little bit of racism, hatred for mainstream, too many dorks, too many burning man types? I don't know.

I mean you look at the hits for some of these artists and it's beyond hundreds of millions of hits if not a billion in some cases. Innovators like MF Doom, Dr. Octagon & Big L never got anywhere close to that sort of popularity.

The new Aesop Rock that came out this month is fucking awesome. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZVlSqjjkic as well as the new Death Grips; open your minds.

All of this and a bit of good taste.
