Check out the remix of Kanye West's Golddigger by the Houston-group, the Legendary K.O. here.
Hard to pick the best lyrics, but these stood out for me:
"Niggas are starving and they dyin' of thirst/
I bet he had to go and check on them refineries first/
Makin' a killing on the price of gas/
He woulda been up in Connecticut twice as fast."
