my disgust with what big corporates force feeds on the radio, and the "rappers" who co-conspire.
East Coast style beats, bling-gangsta free lyrics. Think Pete Rock, A Tribe Called Quest, Primo, El P. With lyrics influenced by Melle Mel, Rakim, El P, and ev
Hip Hop junky flipping sounds into funky tapestries to create a soundtrack of my life. Putting; sometimes introspective, sometimes comedic, sometimes cerebral but always real lyrics on top of those beats for your delight.
Story behind the song
my disgust with what big corporates force feeds on the radio, and the "rappers" who co-conspire.
Lyrics
1st verse
I heard it all before, ain't nothing changed
a bunch of playas in this game all sounding the same
lil' this, lil' that they even bite each others names
take take, biting like snakes, damn it's a shame
today it aint bout lyrics in raps, or a dope tracks
it's bout hot videos and a whole lotta swag
for the verse some rant, the chourus a simple chant
forget trying to advance, IQs hanging like rappers pants
nothing new off the production line
basically basic kindergarden kid rhymes
safe formuli, heard time after time
corny choruses with demographics in mind
unlike gloss like flat it don't shine
listening to the radio makes me bored
after two minutes I can't help it but to snore
watching rap videos' a chore, makes my eyes sore
nothing new coming out the door, I heard it all before
2nd verse
I heard it all before aint nothing new
I don't care if your new school, or old school remember Industry rule
number four thousand and two. do what you do,
but what you do, WHATEVER you do, should be you
in other words don't bite, remember that rule
but from ya crews debut I get a deja vu
who did your beat? did ya pay?, damn that ain't cool
beats sound like ring tones, voice ran through autotune
dime a dozen production sounds like everyone else
that demo won't do. put it back on the shelf
color by number karaoke, everyday okey dokey
noone wants to hear it, keep it to ya self
who wrote your lyrics? a kindergartener, a first grader?
If calling corny sh** playa hating, then call me a hater
simplistic similes, for the poetically poor
makes sense since simpletons make up your fan core
who wrote the script to your rap video
I bet it was the one who produced your song on the radio
in fact it sounds real similar the same identical
to every other rapper that came before.
sold your soul to go gold, to get big
corporate minstrial sh** , in the video dance a jig
next to the rented car, rented mansion, rented b***
throw that dough, show the rented chains and rings
I heard that rhyme before I know where youre heading
content predictable like a scooby doo ending
its been done before no patent pending
I don't blame your ghost writer I wouldent want that credit
another imitation, emulation, straight up clone
so many people done it, ya can't say that's ya own
leave it alone, leave it dead on the floor
yes, I'm quite sure, I heard It all Before
