A great opening line can make a rap track. Phrases like “It was all a dream” or “I bomb atomically” or “So I typed a text to a girl I used to see” ignite minutes-long strings of remembered bars in the heads of rap nerds, who were the exact audience most primed to detonate with joy upon the release of Kendrick Lamar’s stripped-down, direct Damn earlier this year. And opening single “Humble” had what may be an all-timer in its opening line: “I remember syrup sandwiches and crime allowances,” which sets off the slithering, sinuous flow the rapper would maintain for the track’s run time.
