He also neglected to call out any of his Black Hippy crew which I find interesting, he was obviously trying to stir the pot but instead of taking rappers he's obviously more talented than I.E. Ab-Soul, Jack Rock, Schoolboy Q he just didn't mention them because of their friendship, which in the basis of the song is somewhat hypocritical as K.Dot's obviously calling out the guys he believes he's above.
I tell you though, just wait for Big K.R.I.T to drop a massive album. The guy's humble and self sufficient, he writes and produces everything he does. If he gets on board with some bigger names and converts his potential to a record I have no doubt he'll be the next big breakout guy. Even if he retains his humility he could go onto have a career similar to Mos Def or Black Thought.

you got a good point. I could see D brown being a threat to him to be honest. even tho danny talks about a lot of stuff mainstream rappers do. u cant sleep on his lyricism. and it is interetsing he didnt call out black hippy, if he did that would be something!
