* FriendlyRivalry: Probably the only rapper who could tell Music/KendrickLamar to get off the throne without sending shockwaves through the industry.
* GangstaRap: The first track on ''Oxymoron'', literally entitled "Gangsta," makes it pretty clear that you are about to listen to gangsta rap. Content wise, his music has a pretty even mixture of the Blue Collar and Hardcore varieties.
