He must, although in battery, there are a couple sun references... he still must've meant Daylight...

Here's a new Aesop track: Bosico

Glad to see that nobody has come in trying to flame Aesop yet.

To be fair I'm surprised, he is highly overrated and in general he stinks as a lyricist, he only has a couple of impressive tracks.

No he doesn't. If you can think of one valid reason as to why I will be flabbergasted.

I agree, he's an amazing wordsmith. There's always a moment when I'm listening to one of his songs and suddenly realize what the fuck he's been talking about the entire time, and it usually blows my mind. I think there's a good deal of context to work through in a lot of his songs and sometimes I'll stop paying attention to just enjoy the music... but yeah, I haven't heard many rappers with better word play than Aesop.
