A bit of a gritty song with hard hitting drums and bass, and a bit of a cheesy chorus. But finely constructed verses including one from Atra Ludio
uk hip hop gelfo the hiphopalypse 19 years war never gonna
Bassy, Semi Alternative, british conscious hiphop based in london. Non agressive, pretty laid back
Cool. So anyway, before Carparkology..and before Strange Water...but after KjD came The LP "The Hiphopalypse" And the unfinished album "The 19 Years War". These were all made during my 'Structured Hiphop' phase. Most of the songs from my main profile have been moved here, and some other songs ,not previously uploaded, are to follow soon.

Story behind the song
A song about how people are listening to the wrong type of music (pop) when they should be listening to stuff with a message
Lyrics
-= Intro =- Aww Are you listening? (G) You'd better listen (C) Yeah Yeah, Listen Listen (G) , aaahhh Check It Out (Both) -= Chorus =- Listen up x6 (both) I Got something to say (G) -= Verse 1 =- A. Lo Gelfo I Got something to say, and it's something worth saying If nobody else will play, then what's the point of playing? Don't delay, in finding your own flavour of the day Cuz it all comes down to what you're willing to pay Flashing Cash on the dash, But if you're broke then you don't So I gotta do something, I don't MC for a joke I need a toke, Something strong that I can blow To keep my balance on the tightrope, So I'm never letting go - Of these side notes, that I wrote, with these high hopes When I'm right low, Make or break, Hello Survival Now I've got a taste of real life up in my mouth And I've already swallowed so it's too late to spit it out If every question has an answer, then what am I? - Almost every single night, when I'm floating through the sky Realise, That the sound is the real picture So study with your ears, if you wanna read the scripture -= Verse 2 =- Woah, Hang on just a minute, I'm not finished I'm gonna stick around until the flames are extinguished And Diminished. I'm from a run of the mill village With the sound that's esquizit, come on it's heavy innit! With my true flow in a loop hole that you throw like judo And who knows like Cluedo, I'M the one that's in the news though You'll fall down if you try to talk back Cuz the truth is that, I'm the only one that talks facts While you attack with a battle axe, thats mad like max And how come everybody wishes they came from the wrong side of the tracks? Keep it reeeeeeaaaaallll - Must be the lesson of the day Public Enemy didnt mean, 'Do you wanna go our way' Well you don't need three wishes to get stupid out your system Just wise up and start seeing things with your inner vision I wanna let it be known I'm still one man on a mission So sit down, shut up and just listen Well? (C) Did ya listen? Did Ya Listen? Ya Ditn listen did ya? (G) Ya Ditn listen?? (C) Shoulda listened (G) Why ditn ya listen? (C) Shoulda Listened (G)
