Annotation

One of the most celebrated diss tracks ever recorded contains a fart joke. Nas, mid-evisceration of Jay-Z, compares his verbal assault to a slow-burning fart: the kind that lingers.

The fact that 'Ether' entered the language as a verb for destroying someone, and that the song doing it has a flatulence bar, is the whole reason this site exists.
