Once again, we are back with yet another one. With this heat rock, we dig in with one of KevinNottingham.com’s most popular posts, Phonte’s Top 15 Rap Performances [read here]. We get to dig in on my Phonte overdose for a bit and get to talk to P and Nic about what their favourite Phonte verses are and their opinions on the list. Moreover, we flip the switch and talk to Phonte about what his favourite Nicolay beats are and what Nic’s personal favourites are. The best part of the interview comes when it gets noted that Phonte actually had his chance to take on various Nic beats that either ended up on another Nic album or other albums i.e. EMC’s “What It Stands For.” Phonte on that beat? Damn. Lastly, we talk briefly about Nicolay’s creation of “Nautilus,” [check out his recreation here] comparing it to the original, the creation of it, and their favourite use of that sample. Enjoy.

This has been my favorite part of the series.

Just hearing Phonte being so humble about the top 15 and then hearing them both basically analyzing each other’s best work, it was the most interesting 4 me.
