In 1995/96, rap icon Ice Cube ignited a feud with rising talent Common Sense from Chicago. Though the situation was short-lived, it made a lasting impact, and the story has been told many times over, but in nearly all of those stories, a perhaps trivial, but notable factor has been left out, the smart part I played in that story.

The art for this episode is from the cover of Caught In The Middle Magazine, of which I was the Co-Owner, alongside Jason "J-Bird" Cook. This was the first issue of the magazine and also Common's first time being on a magazine cover, and was released in December of 1994. Designed by Boom Design!
