Is Frederick's line "I'm Frederick the Great out the gate" a reference to the song Straight Out the Gate by Tech N9ne? I know it would be an odd reference, since the song isn't exactly that well-known, but it seems a lot like a reference. Frederick's flow on the line is almost the same as Tech N9ne's on the song, and "great out the gate" rhymes with "straight out the gate". There's also the fact that "out the gate" has really been used nowhere else besides Tech N9ne's song. (Listen here: https://youtu.be/t4kkzsRJObE?t=246)
