Rap Athenas: From Juvenile's "Ha" to A$AP Rocky's "Peso"
The first time I saw the videos for Juvenile’s “Ha” (1998) and A$AP Rocky’s “Peso” (2011), I felt I was witnessing the birth of something full-grown, wrapped in tattoos, front teeth full of jewels, wrought in an aesthetic emerging organically out of a world and a worldview both foreign and familiar.

If you thought B.o.B. and Neil deGrasse Tyson’s Flat Earth raps were the most improbable diss tracks ever, wait until you hear the diss track about pharmaceuticals. Martin Shkreli is the man everyone loves to hate lately.

He also bought the sole copy of the Wu-Tang Clan’s latest album, Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, for $2 million.
