   • 2016 June 28, “Hazards”, Loski (lyrics), performed by Loski:

     I still make man panic, true I'm way to wassy
     Before I smoke, I used to step with bassy
     (…)
     And back then my dip dip was large
     Why you think it’s bassy I called it, why you think it’s bassy I called it
     And what's all the gossip
     I got Madeleine and Jackson 5 in the trap house you know that I chop it
