 One of the producers and guest appearances on the song is RZA , frontman of the hip @-@ hop group Wu @-@ Tang Clan . RZA spoke positively of West , viewing that he embodied the mentality of the Wu @-@ Tang Clan . RZA sent several beats to West , including some that he cited as being edgy , because he felt that West was the type who could work well on more forceful production , including the brooding " So Appalled " . The song was nearly featured on Last Train to Paris , a studio album by Diddy . According to another producer on the song , No I.D. , it was offered to both Jay @-@ Z and Diddy before it leaked . West freestyled over the track for fun and found that he actually liked it enough to ultimately use it himself , stating that it would make a good group song . Cyhi the Prynce 's verse only appeared on the song because he " tricked " West . Originally he was only supposed to deliver a quick hook , but at the time West was tired and let Cyhi record his verse alone . When West awoke and played back the tape , he was surprised to find that Cyhi had recorded an entire verse . Impressed with it , West decided to include it on the track anyway . The song reportedly offended M.C. Hammer , who Jay @-@ Z references on the line " I spent another 30 / Cause unlike Hammer 30 million can ’ t hurt me " .
