D-Money: Mariah’s new affected speaking voice is annoying.

D-Money: Whatever planet she thinks she’s on at the moment. That being said, “Dedicated” is a jam.

Butta: It really is. I’m here for the Wu-Tang Clan sample, James Fauntleroy on supporting vocals and Nas is all his Nas-ness.

D-Money: Is that Nas or J.D. attempting to sing at the end?

Butta: Whoever it is needs to stop the madness.

D-Money: I first heard that shit in my headphones and immediately started fighting the air.

Butta: Save your energy for some of the other features to come later.

D-Money: Yeah, it had me all nostalgic. I mean, I don’t remember allllll of the ‘80s as I’m far too young, but I’ve heard it was fun. That’d be more your forte.

Butta: You tried it!
