In typical DR fashion, A.D. shifts effortlessly (quite literally) between social commentary, 4chan-humor, Talking Heads-references, personal anecdotes and battle braggadocio, opening with a Bieber shoutout and closing with what one could assume is Kool A.D. trying to babble in German. Listen to the joint below and also peep Das Racist's new track with Roc Marciano after the jump.
