The one producer, one emcee arrangement was the norm for most rap albums in the 80s and 90s before Nas made Illmatic and changed the game with the "roster of producers for one album" thing.

Hahaha this is a throwback to the 80s and 90s. One producer and one MC is not a new trend.

This track is why one should never give up on hip hop! It LIVES
Different levels to this game...on display here. Very special.
The odds of Danger Mouse and Madlib producing basically the same track and having them release a day apart is absolutely insane. (Georgetown - Loyle Carner for reference)

Do you think they collaborated? When I heard that the first time, I was shook cus I randomly placed that song in the queue before this song and thought I had it on repeat by mistake.

The release timing is crazy for sure. But aside from that it’s practically bound to happen. If you find a dope sample and loop it, of course someone else will find it sooner or later and have the same idea

If they had both chopped a sample the same way then it’s be mindblowing. I don’t know the original sample so hey maybe they did both chop it that way. But I doubt it, it sounds like a straight loop with a couple other samples put on top
This verse been a classic since he spit it at the J-Dilla tribute with Tony Touch, Q-Tip & Questlove 10 years ago Just as fire now as it was then.. R.I.P. J-Dilla & Long Live Tariq Trotter

Wait what? Same verse? Never knew it but agree, this verse is the nicest ive hears in a longgggg time! And same goes for the beat
Strong Album of the Year contender. I doubt anyone will beat it
Cheat Codes is PERFECT in every way. I can't stop listening to it. Black Thought and Danger Mouse gotta give us another one
Sometimes all generations,genres and eras of hiphop must recognize greatness at the same damn time!!
Nah the kicks on this beat kick harder than soccer players
D realest. Beat is phenomenal
1:34 the way black thought alters pronunciations of words to construct the rhyme scheme here is so cool to me
The lyricism is unparalleled of course, but these beats are crazy sick!!! They nailed this album. Best I've heard in a long ass time.
The vibe between yall is HIP HOP
Love every song on this album but this song……damn…this is by far the one that I have listened to like over and over and over….this track is sickkkkkkkk….love everything about it…that real ole skool rapping and that beat is ill
Nicest verse i’ve heard in longgggg time!! And thd beat as welll….. Replayed 3 times in a row and bout to play it again tight now! I don’t give a flying….. Black Thought & Danger Mouse is the best thing out now‼️
This is will go down as one of the best hip hop productions and recording of all times.

I think I just found my new favorite song, but fr fr this entire album is really on some OTHER shit... been listening to Thought for 30 years now and if anything he's only improving with age, even tho he came out the womb as a beast
sickest album i've heard in a while. wow. two legends making legendary music.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
After he finished the verse my imagination is scratching Big Pun saying “one verse - dead em all” on the beat. This is sonic/lyrical perfection.
love how the video loops with the music
Put some respect on it

You dont understand a artist like mouse yet yungster. I love the enthusiasm but learn the basics.. Than learn the advanced production skills to produce high end popartist and then go back to the raw vintage breaks and diggin samples and mix that grammy award winning cocktail up to the realest hardcore hiphop. Good luck and endurance is everything my dude

Damn!! WHOOP WHOOP!!
Just heard The Game's shit, came here for genuine artistry
Ayo, don't even worry 'bout it, my legendary stylin' Between Harry Belafonte and Harry Allen I'm from a city where it's violent and it's overcrowded I put it on the map, y'all ain't even know about it I brought the poet out it, the soul flowin' out Make it hard to figure how y'all managed to go without it A mic with a chord, I never do a show without it When dealin' with force, I lift 'em up and throw 'em out I know the way to go the route, show you what a soldier 'bout Big boy arms, I'm holdin' out, clips folding out Used to be a lil' snot nose, but I'm older now You can try what you want, I'll show you what I don't allow Fuck all the runaround, you on a huntin' ground You spit a hundred bars, I spit a hundred rounds You run a hundred yards tryna get out of bounds That's when I tackle y'all and show you how the thunder sounds Bang ya as we approach the danger With beats that awoke the anger And I ain't know the music was supposed to change us But when I start spittin', the shit is so contagious It smokes the pages I literally spoke to sages They said it's no hope to save us 'Cause we the bad guys, you supposed to blame us But nowadays, everybody close to famous But stop modelin' and wild styling's in the wind like an allergen Y'all motherfuckers could forget about challengin' I blind rappers like a magnified halogen You tryna tussle with the truth, how about it then? I am lightyears beyond, not behind the line I'm what separates dawn from truly divine Get me a Crystal Head vodka with a twist of lime Then watch rappers get smoked like a nick of thyme I will bring it to your doorstep, pick a time I will put you in a body bag, kick a rhyme Niggas sick, but they not near as sick as I am Rappers is slick, but they not near slick as I am I don't give a flyin', stop signifyin' Stop speakin' into the mic and die dignified I'm that insecticide, pesticide, genocide You in the morgue, absolutely identified
