Killer Mike made his South Parkdebut
Hip-hop has been an important element of South Park this season. In previous episodes, we've seen the show parody Kendrick Lamar's"HUMBLE." and Logic's"1-800-273-8255."
On the latest episode of South Park, which premiered on Wednesday, October 18th, the long-running show didn't just parody a show. They had veteran rapper Killer Mike write and perform a verse for the show.

The episode, called "Hummels and Heroin," focuses on mass incarceration and the opioids epidemic we have in this country.

For the occasion, Killer Mike spits a new verse on the topics, rapping lines like:
"In here nobody knows you by the name. Youre just a number, living under the bitch ass rules of a broken game. They put me here to die, left me angry and alone. For the crime of being old, they threw me in this nursing home.
This Killer Mike guy...he might have a future in this hip-hop thing. Watch Mike's South Park appearance below.
