      G RAP went off but "I been there at the party" "the 🎤 had my prints" "AND on it was a body" and "battling me is hazardous to your health so put a quarter in your azz bc you played yourself" KANE rules this track lol.

      G Rap was perfectly within his time. This is the innovation of the Golden Age of hip hop, that period from 85-90 that the game will NEVER EVER see again. The era these youngins have no appreciation yet the worst of this era would destroy the so called.best.of today. G Rap was right on time because NOBODY rhymed like him before or since.

    @forlini4876 5 років тому +43

    Listen closely, so your attention's undivided
    Many in the past have tried to do what I did
    Just the way I came off, man I'm gonna come off
    Stronger and longer, even with the drum off
    I keep on goin' and flowin' just like a river
    I got a whole lot to give so I'm-a give a
    Little at a time, new trails are blazin'
    Action is in effect, and always stays in
    Yeah, just like a shot from a cannon
    I am the man in charge and I've been plannin'
    A jam strong enough that it can life your soul
    I'm the originator, and my rhymes are made of gold
    Once you hear the capital "a" rap, it'll stay
    With you for awhile, it won't go away
    Unless you force it, because it stays with you, my friend
    And if you toss it away, I'm-a hit ya again
    I project my voice so it's right in the crowd
    There's a sign at the door: no bitin' allowed
    And if you didn't read it I suggest you do so
    Or you'll be stranded, just like caruso
    Sleep if ya want to, go 'head, get some shut-eye
    A man broke his jaw tryin' to say what I
    Say on the microphone, you shoulda left it alone
    Just for the record, let it be known
    That my ego's only partially grown
    And never will I ever condone biting in any form, yo I'm only warm
    That verse was the calm, now here's the storm
    Next up (yo, I believe that's me)
    Craig g, light up the mic for the symphony
    This jam is dedicated to all un-optimistics
    That though I wasn't coming out with some exquisite rhymes
    But that's alright, 'cause now I'm back
    To kill all the rumors and straighten the facts of me
    Not rockin' rhymes like I always used to
    But you jumped on hte tip when you heard me and the juice crew
    You said, "mmm mmm mmm, ain't that somethin?
    Yo craig, I head you in that jam, and it's pumpin'
    I apologize, oh yeah, and uh, can I have your autograph for me and my grandma?"
    That's how I'm livin': all surprise mode
    Don't even sleep, try not to keep your eyes closed
    'cause if you do, when you awaken, your so-called spot will be taken
    I'll take you over like a greedy executive, 'cause on the mic my prospective is
    To be the best in all rap events, and since I have a call, I call experience
    Next up(yo, I believe that's me)
    Cool g rap, light up the mic for the symphony
    Yo, marley gives the slice, I get nice
    And my voice is twice as horrifying as Vincent Price
    Goes deep, till you fell in a spell of a sleep
    And while I'm countin' the money, you count sheep
    When g rap strikes the mic, I recite the type of hype that you like
    And make the people unite
    I grip up hips and zip up lips, step on reps, you flip and want to sip on my tip
    Take a deep breath, because you don't have another left
    Comin' back like I'm avengin' my brother's deat
    Makin' veterans run for medicine
    'cause I put out more lights in a fight than con edison
    Rip the damn cage like I'm on a rampage
    And if you want rage, I'm-a make front page
    Read the headlines, suckers, today's the deadline
    Your head is way past bedtime
    Can't kill though, solo, 'cause you're still all soft like a pillow
    My rap is rougher than brillo
    So fear me, don't dare dare me
    And don't compare me to him when you hear me
    Talk about a battle but you ain't yet ready for war
    Your metaphor sucks more than a whore
    You can't replace me, ice me or ace me, bass me, face me, slice me or race me
    Bite me or taste me I'll show you that I got force
    My rap burns your mouth like hot sauce
    Run for water while I break your tape recorder
    Server-to-sucker: the order is manslaughter
    Another rapper, g rap wrecks, he's rated x, to mean the boy is sex, next
    The amplifier gets used and abused, pumps so loud, we might blow a fuse
    This is anger, madness, ready to hang 'er
    Rapper or singer I'm puttin' up my middle finger
    Next up (i believe that's me)
    Big daddy kane, get on the mic for the symphony
    Settin' it off, lettin' it off, beginnin'
    Rough to the endin', you never been in
    To move the groove with the smooth rap lord
    Like a bottle of juice, rhymes are being poured
    Down your ear, crisp and clear
    As I prepare to wear, tear and smear then I'm outta here
    With a mark left that you can all cling
    'cause rockin' a party? yo, it's a small thing
    I rip many places on regular basis, and broken down mics were the only traces
    That I'd been there and there at the party
    The mic had my prints, and on it was a body
    So take caution, I'm not horsin' around in a throwdown, clown
    I'm takin' yours son
    So just acknowledge the way that I kick it
    'cause if rap was a house, you'd be evicted
    And dismissed from the microphone, chokin' on a bone, 'cause daddy's home
    And battlin' me is hazardous to health
    So put a quarter in your ass, 'cause ya played yourself
    Like a game in the arcade, you need a far aid
    I'm walkin' the path that allah made
    I'll attend and then begin to send a speech to reach and teach
    So just say when
    So I can let lyrics blast like a bullet
    My mouth is the gun on suckers I pull it
    The trigger, ya figure, my pockets gettin' bigger
    'cause when it comes to money, yo, grant's my nigga!
    You've got the groove, mcs, freeze, stand still, nobody move
    It's a sabotage, as I take charge, don't barge, 'cause gotdamn, I'm livin' large
    Like a giant, you're nothin' but a midget, a small digit
    You ain't hit it, forget it, quit it
    I reign superior, always takin' care o'ya
    No-frill rappers, you will evaporate, disintegrate, deflate to your fate
    As the great will dominate straight to the state
    Of reignin', gainin, so put kane in, that category, period, end of story

    Yo, Marley gives the slice, I get nice,
    and my voice is twice as horrifying as Vincent Price
    goes deep, till you fell in a spell of a sleep,
    and while I'm countin' the money, you count sheep.
    When G Rap strikes the mic, I recite the type of hype that you like,
    and make the people unite.
    I grip up hips and zip up lips, step on reps, you flip and wanna sip on my tip.
    Take a deep breath, because you don't have another left.
    Comin' back like I'm avengin' my brother's deat.
    Makin' veterans run for medicine,
    cuz I put out more lights in a fight than ConEdison.
    Rip the damn cage like I'm on a rampage.
    And if you want rage, I'm-a make front page.
    Read the headlines, suckers, todays the deadline,
    your head is way past bedtime.
    Can't kill though. Solo. Cuz you're still all...soft like a pillow.
    My rap is rougher than Brillo.
    So fear me, don't dare dare me,
    and don't compare me to him when you hear me.
    Talk about a battle but you ain't yet ready for war.
    Your metaphor sucks more than a whore.
    You can't replace me, ice me or ace me, bass me, face me, slice me or race me,
    bite me or taste me -- I'll show you that I got force.
    My rap burns your mouth like hot sauce.
    Run for water while I break your tape recorder.
    Server-to-sucker: the order is manslaughter.
    Another rapper, G Rap wrecks, he's rated X, to mean the boy is sex. Next...
    the amplifier gets used and abused. Pumps so loud, we might blow a fuse.
    This is anger, madness, ready to hang 'er.

His clear sound and grasp with giants like G rap, and kane stands out for an early listener like myself. I never noticed it as a kid due to the fact that Kane and G rap stood with seniority. I cant hand the victory to someone that doesnt sound clear. I still love Kane's verse though.
