I think the thing that gets my goat about "World Destruction" the
most is that it is CATEGORICALLY *NEVER* CITED whenever people talk
about rock/rap genre-blending, as folks tirelessly cite "Walk this
Way" by Run-DMC/Aerosmith (which "World Destruction" pre-dated, I
believe) as the first great crossover single.
