Necro is easily as influenced by hardcore as he is by metal and also collaborated with hardcore guy turned rapper Danny Diablo on that same album and the dude from Cro-Mags on Death Rap.

I do agree that the one with the guy from Obituary is an awkward fit though. I don't hate it, but it's one of the weaker tracks on the album.
I realize there's a connection between NYHC and rap, but that doesn't make Jasta's appearance any less terrible.
