that stupid fucking Young Money flow

[Ticalrecords]

don't know if this was ever pointed out, but I'm pretty sure Eminem is the originator of the young money punchline set up, the one Big Sean claims to have invented. this is all the way back in 2000 on MMLP's Who Knew, eminem goes: "My Life's like, kinda what my wife's like. fucked up after i beat her fuckin ass every night, Ike" .
if anyone can find an earlier instance, tell, otherwise Em is shortchanged on his influence on hip hop (again).

Just...stop. Please. The amount of people on this forum who think they're hilarious by making "troll" threads is reaching critical mass, and it makes my brain hurt.

The punchline flow has been in Hip Hop for ages... Before Em even started to write...

I don't think you're trolling, just stupid TBH.

That line isn't a YM style punchline at all, he says "like".

He does say Ike. Like... Ike and Tina.

...the fuck are you talking about/facepalming me for?

-I said Em says "like" as part of the line
-The whole point of a YM punchline is removing the "like" and replacing it with a pause
-Thus, that Em line isn't a YM punchline
