In 2003, Kardinal's album 'Firestarter Vol. 2: The F-Word Theory' was shelved after Geffen Records absorbed his label, MCA Records. The song was directed at major labels, which he referred to as "Bill". In the third verse he raps: "This ain't just some music story / It's about how real niggas return for glory / Bill tried to leave me out in the cold to die / I told y'all before we just multiply."[http://www.cbc.ca/arts/music/canadianhiphop.html Border Block - Canadian Hip Hop vs. America] CBC.
