To kick off our tenth year of HARK, we're writing the first page of what will surely be many chapters exploring the question of our time: why are there so many hip hop songs about the Grinch? "I Am The Grinch" by Tyler the Creator is a pleasant but not very illuminating entry in Grinch Rap subgenre, while "The Grinch" by Bad Lucc gives us a little more to speculate on, but is, you know, no "Landy in My Eggnog".

The ranking music for this episode is "Grinch 2000" by Busta Rhymes featuring Jim Carrey, and the intro/outro music sting is "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch" by Thurl Ravenscroft.
