First cats are the High and The mighty, a white boy group on the old Rawkus label. That was a mistake because it was born out of misunderstanding of something they said at a concert.

The second was about this cat called the Boogieman, who was bubblin as a battle MC at a time when that sht was red hot. Boogieman, battled, and destroyed Ace, and he was running around telling everyone that Ace was a wrap. This was Ace's comeback, and its a classic example of losing the battle but winning the war. Everything Ace said about Boogie was true at the time, and would turn out to be prophetic in reflection.

That beat.... :ohlawd:

Ace talks about the battle on the same album. Track, Dear Diary.
One of the lines off the top of my head is

"You already proved that at the Lyricist Lounge affair
Tryin to battle with rhymes you wrote on the way there
Maybe next time you'll know not to play fair
Say your best written shyt and school em like daycare"
