Menace is an old-school wordsmith. Rather stuff his bars with syllables, he plays with the meanings of words. By the time the listener is able to digest his double meanings and punchlines, Menace has moved on to the next thought. In The Preemo Plan, Menace crowds references to classic DJ Premier songs all along each bar. It's the kind of song you can't stop smiling at as a fan of DJ Premier, and Menace has the kind of charismatic matter-of-fact delivery that works best on Preemo beats. I hope he figures out how to buy some.
Until then, there's always YouTube.
Samax Amen is a professional Content Developer, Illustrator and Cartoonist.

He even writes and draws his own comics, like Dare: The Adventures of Darius Davidson, Spontaneous, and Manchild when he gets around to it. Because making comics is hard and stuff, he started GhettoManga as a blog in 2006 and as a print magazine in 2008. GhettoManga.com
