The Perceptionists feat. Shock G - Career Finders

This is a clever hip hop song that mocks conventions of hip hop and rap genres (the gangster rap track, the hustler track, the braggadocio track) that these artists clearly find worth mocking, suggesting that such themes have no place in rap, at least not to the extent to which they are addressed. I liked this song so much that, years ago, when no trace of the lyrics transcription could be found on the world wide web, I transcribed them myself. This required me to listen to the song a copious amount of times, but I still didn’t get sick of it.  There is some profanity.
