[[Big Applesauce|New York City]] rapper [[Cage]] (Chris Palko) is best known to mainstream audiences for one of two things:
▲2. A feud with Detroit rapper [[Eminem]], who Palko once claimed ripped off his style. Palko has since admitted that he may have overreacted, since both rappers started out at pretty much the same time, and Eminem could not have ripped off Cage's style, having already developed his style in a separate rap scene without ever having heard Cage's music (this inconsistency hasn't stopped Eminem [[Fan Dumb]] from accusing Cage of [[Did Not Do the Research|ripping off Eminem's style]], even though it's as impossible as Cage's previous claims).
Cage's lyrics are distinguished from most rappers in that they are ''extremely'' personal, although sometimes exaggerated to cartoonish levels (especially on his debut ''Movies for the Blind''), and even though many of his albums and appearances on mixtapes and compilations feature [[Horrorcore|dark portraits of entirely fictional characters]], the personal touch has gotten Cage a great deal of appraisal as a lyricist and artist of great talent.
Line 20:
His most recent album, ''Depart from Me'', has been appraised by music critics as a highlight in [[Rap Rock|the fusion of Hip Hop and rock]], as well as his most personal album to date.
Not to be confused with actor [[Nicolas Cage]], avant-garde composer [[John Cage]], the [[Heavy Metal]] band of the same name, the 1989 action film of the same name and its sequel, both starring Reb Brown and Lou Ferrigno,
