And just go with the flow you know
In the place to be with my man Marley✦ Marl
Sending this out to Divine✦ Force
Can't forget✦ my main man Heavy✦ D
And to my good brothers EPMD
And to my man Ice-T✦ over on the West Coast
Can't forget✦ Kool Moe Dee, Busy✦ Bee, MC Lyte, the Audio✦ Two
I say, "Peace!"

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

The provided text is a standard shout-out outro rather than a lyrical verse, functioning as a community acknowledgment segment typical of the late 80s, lacking technical wordplay or complex metaphorical construction.

Rhyme Architecture: The segment utilizes an loose, colloquial structure typical of outro shout-outs, prioritizing name-dropping and rhythmic flow over formal end-rhyme schemes.

Effective community building through direct shout-outs

Maintains the established flow and tempo of the track

Cultural documentation of the era's peer group

Total absence of lyrical wordplay or figurative language

Structure serves a functional purpose rather than an artistic one

Lacks the narrative progression found in the main body of the record
