One thing that's united rappers across generations is a sense of frustration during the introductions to their songs. The rappers will often demand that their mics be turned up, or that a certain sound be turned up in their headphones, or that everyone quiet down to listen. Something very few people have ever considered, however, is how the sound engineer recording these seemingly-impromptu rants must have been reacting on that day.
Thanks to Twitter user @caitiedelaney, we now know.
