The song commences with Busta admonishing Royce for “sharing your food in a recession.” Judging from Bussa Bus’ ever-expanding waistline, he hasn’t been sharing food since his salad days. It doesn’t help when he starts confusing rappers with hamburgers and frankfurters. If you consider “Fried Chicken,” his 2008 collaboration with Nas, it’s clear that Trevor Smith might be better off spending time with Jenny Craig. Thankfully, he’s spending time with Ryan Montgomery, thus redeeming the pair for the relative disappointments that were Back on My B.S. and Slaughterhouse (which wasn’t bad, but I refuse to ride for a group of guys who didn’t even realize the potential of calling their album, Slaughterhouse 4).
Neither verse here would rank in any of these artists’ all-time greatest. It’s just that carnivorous rare meat rap to bait the vultures with until October 20 when Street Hop drops. And for what it’s worth, this is a damned good appetizer. More deviled eggs and drumsticks, less quiche.
