Among the edgiest of shows ever aired, Breaking Bad now faces an insidious new archenemy: being liked to death. On the one hand, people have settled for what’s impressive about the series while missing what’s unprecedented. On the other, they’ve been so dazzled by the show’s brilliance that they miss its flaws and its undertow. A Love-Hate Guide to ‘Breaking Bad’ shines a flashlight on places even the most obsessive fans have overlooked. It crosses the spectrum from loving to hating to provoke new ways into the series.

Understood, then, through the rhetorical framework provided by Catherine Helen Palczewski, Richard Ice, and John Fritch in Rhetoric in Civic Life, Scott’s music and actions—evidenced in interviews, album covers, and lyrics, respectively—aid in the fight to pull the underground rhetoric above-ground—an endeavor that is correlative with an overarching aim to further the social justice advocacies established within the existing tradition of hip-hop.
