Here's another example of the KRS-One (BO!) |
|
Here's another example of the KRS-One (BO!) |
|
They wish to battle BDP but they cannot |
|
They must be on the jock of WHO? (DJ Scott LaRock!) |
|
[KRS-One] |
|
Yeah, one-two, what? What? |
|
Grab any tape that you think is hard |
|
Put it in your tape deck and press record |
|
Get this - what's a real hip-hop emcee? |
|
Is it MTV? Is it BET? |
|
Is it five M-I-C's so the people can see? |
|
I mean, how you think you free when you act like property? |
|
Tell me, how can you judge an MC when he's rockin |
|
I mean, rockin it live, not pickin his cotton |
|
I mean, adjustin his clothes I mean, how do you know |
|
before you come to the show, and you're not gettin cheated |
|
That you're not gettin heated, that you ain't come to the club |
|
thinkin, "Uh-uh - I must have been weeded!" |
|
You got to be a educated consumer |
|
Spend your money on MC's cause these rappers'll do ya |
|
All they want is your cash, ass, glass, gas and a flick |
|
When you ask for that autograph, they ass dash quick |
|
Beware of the rapper, he talks like it don't matter |
|
He pulls his gat while we BUST OFF the gatler |
|
He's more of an actor, someone, into theater |
|
Not an upright MC with styles who speaks clearer! |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[KRS-One] |
|
MC's have no time for the bar |
|
Unless we politickin a tape to some drunk A&R |
|
We grab the mic and say who we are, KRS |
|
And start takin it to the chest of the best |
|
This is not a test or a demo |
|
This is when you let go of the limo, like many can't do |
|
They may wanna amp you and chant new, record sellin |
|
But movin the crowd is somethin that they can't do! |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[KRS-One] |
|
C'mon! |
|
You got to be mistaken, I am not your boy |
|
You fake what you creatin, playin wit'cha toys |
|
G'wan with all that bullshit bout you bringin noise |
|
Time for somethin more than PO-PO-POI-POI |
|
All of hip-hop ain't seventeen |
|
Some of us still go back to "Microphone Fiend" |
|
Back when it was just MC's and DJ's |
|
No video that come on and just replay |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[KRS-One] |
|
Uhhh... uh-huh, uh-huh uh-huh |
|
We can never stop, forever we rock, take a listen |
|
The t'cha is back, cause rap's whack when I'm missin |
|
Me, I would never want the future to believe |
|
that when they trust to look back on us there was no dope MC's |
|
There was, all these rappers grabbin more and more money |
|
And now that I'm A&R they look more and more funny |
|
They rap for platinum plaques without buildin |
|
a cultural strategy worthy of our children! |
