Thank you, this is something I've been meaning to come back to. I've restored an older version from right before when this appeared to change focus. It looks like, for other editors who are interested, this originated here, and was never reverted. – Broccoli & Coffee (Oh hai) 20:02, 19 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Eminem reference

edit

Shouldn't we mention that Eminem references Lakim Shabazz in his song "Rap God," as follows?:

Me? I'm a product of Rakim
Lakim Shabazz, 2Pac, N.W.A, Cube, hey Doc, Ren
Yella, Eazy, thank you, they got Slim
Inspired enough to one day grow up, blow up and be in a position
To meet Run-D.M.C., induct them
Into the motherfuckin' Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
