    I'll admit I was skeptical when I saw the post, but that was a very enjoyable piece of work! Greatly enjoyed the lyrics and music. Nice work!!

    I suspect that the reason Don enjoyed it, and I *know* the reason I enjoyed it, is that I really wouldn't consider this to be "rap," at least not in the American sense. Not sure what to call it but it is very enjoyable music!

    Oh, I'm fine with the rap part. While I'm not an aficionado of the genre, I can appreciate the spoken word style. My worry was that I've seen a lot of bad rap pieces with science or history themes that I feared it might be a bad parody style. It was not! Quality production and spot on lyrics! Again, well done!
