One of the more boasting tracks off of CiNo’s Overkill demo/mixtape. This is just crazy spitting over Lil Wayne & Birdman’s Fire Flame (Original) beat.

This is actually the first track written for Overkill. Well, the first verse however. The second verse was written a little later into the project. This track wasn’t even intended to have 2 verses, but CiNo felt he could have lyrically done better and wrote a second verse.

Supposedly, this is the 4th single off of Tech N9ne’s All 6’s And 7’s album.

This is a song about how Tech N9ne and Blind Fury are the best at what they do and nobody else in the rap world (except Eminem, who was the original feature intended for this track) are on their level.

Wyshmaster is the producer behind this track.

People try to say that Tech will sell out once he sees the money. What they don’t is that he’s already making the money (Strange Music is valued around $70 million…) and he’s still spitting as raw as ever, proven on this track. Nonetheless, the critics are still blinded by their hate.

He let the K.O.D. (King of Darkness) out, and now the K.O.D. is recording music.
It’s weird, though, because “Phallus” is a word of Greek/Latin origin meaning the “penis”, “clitoris” or any sexual embryonic organ. Tech has called his lust weaknesses “demons” in many songs. So, it is interesting in seeing how dark Tech considers sex to be.

The first song on All 6’s And 7’s.
A perfect one to introduce the album’s craziness and randomness, considering that this is the first dubstep track that Tech has ever done.

Em is referring to the same Van Dyke Avenue in “Yellow Brick Road” from his Encore album.
This is also a play on words, knowing how much Eminem loves disrespecting women and talking about lesbians, which is shadowing his urge to want to call the girl he’s with a dyke (lesbian).

Van Dyke Avenue is a street/road in Detroit crossing 8 Mile Road.
It’s quite long, too:
Van Dyke
