For those who are hating on rap music, I agree that most of what you hear on the jukeboxes at the pool halls is trash (along with most of the other contemporary music that gets played), but there is some really brilliant music in the genre too. Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, The Fugees, Lauryn Hill, The Grouch, Aceyalone, Heiroglyphics, Mos Def, Blackalicious, Common, Outkast ... just to name the first ones I can think of. Check them out with an open mind and you might surprise yourself.
I guess you figure this tune by Blackalicious is really brilliant. Please spare me...I can feel my IQ going down rapidly to the beat of this idiotic tune.
(Now it's time for our wrap up
Let's give it everything we've got
Ready? Begin)
Artificial amateurs, aren't at all amazing
Analytically, I assault, animate things
Broken barriers bounded by the bomb beat
Buildings are broken, basically I'm bombarding
Casually create catastrophes, casualties
Canceling cats got their canopies collapsing
Detonate a dime of dank daily doing dough
Demonstrations, Don Dada on the down low
Eating other editors with each and every energetic
Epileptic episode, elevated etiquette
Furious fat fabulous fantastic
Flurries of funk felt feeding the fanatics
Gift got great global goods gone glorious
Getting godly in his game with the goriest
Hit 'em high, hella height, historical
Hey holocaust hints hear 'em holler at your homeboy
Imitators…
Or this one:
Super fabulous the patterns have been uplifted
Smokin' chalice with the maddest and the most spliffed
Turn the alphabet to calculus and flow swiftly
See the matter of the fact is that I'm so gifted
Due payer you do say I behead a terra moda rhymin' in a toupee
A true player who moves layers of earth
Showin' you are officially ridin' with the crusaders
Check it, I go Hawaiian on an island in a fat tipi
Then down to Thailand for some dining in a black three piece
I'm intertwining and aligning with a mack thesis
The tongue of iron rule the lion of this rap species
I go abominable all up in your snowcone
Clockin' the dollars goin' all across the globe scorin'
All of the followers of doubters I'll be cold doin'
The diabolical infallible that's most cruel and
[Hook]
In come the fabulous ones, make way for the fabulous ones
In come the fabulous ones, make way for the fabulous ones
Super fabulous the patterns have been updated
Wanna battle you'll be baffled at the stuff stated
Drowning in the shallow waters of the rough ragin'
Verbal canoe with no paddle heading up state and
I got a home made of chrome, got an iron maiden
Etchin' poems in the stone with a wire cable
I'm the lone wolf who don't condone violating
And when its on I'm leavin' domes steady vibrating
[Hook]
I love waiting for rappers to arrive baked
It's my nature so smile now and die later
Cause y'all fakers, and nothing but some cry babies
That's why I'm writing out your citations
Check it, I'm riding shotty doing Gotti dirty work spiffy
In an Impala with a dolly and her skirts skimpy
The verbal scholly make you holla, you get hurt simply
Cause the holocaust, and all across the earth's empty
[Hook]
Super fabulous the patterns have been upgraded
Triple stamina commando get your hut raided
Couldn't handle it you panicked and your luck faded
Keep on yapping out your trap and I'mma duck tape it
See we been doing this since you was in a wet diaper
Confusing as a Rubix cube is to decipher
Intuitive just like Confucius in your next life
Or a new addition of a ludicrously vexed sniper
Pursuing moving units influence the next writers
Student you ruin because you're truant before your test biter
Blooming and moving on in unison consuming the consumer
And you and your crew'll be known as 'west siders'
Hook x2]
Welcome to a new kind of listening experience
How anybody can consider this crap music is beyond me.
