This blog post combines beards and tattoos.

Also: my pal/coworker Kalon was talking to me today about how he thinks 'Hit Em Up' is a really good dis song. I, however, think Tupac is the most overrated figure in the history of rap music. So here are a few dis songs that I think are better (YouTube and SendSpace links, I dunno how long they'll last):

Canibus - 2nd Round Knockout (amateur YouTube slideshow video)
Common - The Bitch In You
(amateur YouTube slideshow video)
Jay-Z - Takeover (mix from Jay/Nas beef mixtape, with extended live intro and cutting between live (MTV Unplugged, w/the Roots) and vinyl versions)
Nas - Ether (great amateur YouTube video)
Everlast - Whitey's Revenge (mp3 link)
Evidence - Search 4 Bobby Fisher (mp3 link--yeah, they're both Eminem disses, and no, I don't think Em's dis songs are that great--not even close to his best work)

This is, of course, the tip of the iceberg. I've left out Shan/KRS, UTFO/Shante, LL/Moe Dee, Cube/NWA, Dre/Eazy, El-P/Sole and quite a few others (though a lot of the others didn't produce any good songs).
 
Comments:
Sure, Don Imus is bad, and rap is worse, but when O WHEN is somebody gonna do something about that evil Johnny Cash?
