    Rip Born Swift. He put me on in 1995. He heard my demo cassette and recorded the track. God bless Da Grassroots.

      Not sure who Born Swift is and couldn't find Him anywhere but I did get this back in '94-'95 when I got MILLIONS of tests as a DJ from Long Island and was AMAZED when I came across this post and MAN did it bring back memories listening to college radio❤

      This shit sounds new york af
      I love how in the 90's every state had their specific sound
      Colder east coast areas like new york had this grimy and ominous vibe
      West coast had a sunny and chill vibe
      Midwest was unique and south was a mix of everything

    • @snow-135
      @snow-135 Рік тому

      To be fair Toronto, Ontario is right next to New York so its understandable where we got our hip hop influences as well as just the fact that we’re both North American countries that speak English so our accents are very similar

    • @FunkyChild718
      @FunkyChild718 3 місяці тому

      It's just because this was during a time when everyone was heavily influenced by the NY boom bap sound so that's how everyone structured their music and even how they spoke and the slang they used. Also, beyond that, Toronto is just a 1.5. hour drive to NY state, they would get the same radio, same local tv stations, news, media etc so the accent is already pretty similar, but Toronto has more of a Caribbean influence. Similar to what you see in Flatbush Brooklyn.

    • @joaquinjoaquinjoaquin
      @joaquinjoaquinjoaquin 7 років тому +4

      I transcribed them for you guys:
      [Cuts]
      Yes yes y’all
      and you don’t stop
      Yes yes y’all
      and you don’t stop
      Yes yes y’all
      and you don’t stop
      Keep it on and shockin’ the place
      Yes yes y’all
      and you don’t stop
      Yes yes y’all
      and you don’t stop
      Yes yes y’all
      and you don’t stop
      Keep it on and shockin’ the place
      [Verse 1]
      You all seeing, the God believing human being
      I walks the streets recollecting niggas feelings
      From my mind, my pulse free fluctuates drama
      Increasing pressure on my chest I’m never wrong
      And with the phone call precise ring the low
      Which you steal so we can practice on the attics
      In fact is time to light combine with the borough
      And flash in the hurry and makes my eyes blurry still scurry
      Tomorrow got to go even doe on the down low
      I don’t know if I have enough to go
      Time’s wastin’ buzz comes in small inhalation
      Get on the gravity and lie about my destination
      G-Knight sounds pro, all is down your eyes when I gets down to the nitty
      This things moving damn slow
      Chill for an hour then reach the mall and still walk through the corridors with my eyes on my bills
      I still pass crews not amuse me not indistinguish the English when they freestyle and jack
      Try to pass by and sound me damn cold
      You try to find my soul save your rhymes for the mind
      Nigga I break it down for your headpiece and give peace sense and write the jeopardies
      [Hook]
      Carry on
      Never do crime to all mankind
      Make the line feel the pain I’m running out of time
      No lies will get done I never had a gun
      I’m leaving you with drama when G-Knight gets the drummer
      Carry on
      Never do crime to all mankind
      Make the line feel the pain I’m running out of time
      No lies will get done I never had a gun
      I’m leaving you with drama when G-Knight gets the drummer
      [Verse 2]
      With these words I carry on with slurs with the herbs
      That are getting slap up with the verbs violated but still calm
      When I drop bombs all the times G-Knight makes your infection feel warmer
      And competition nickels my verses scared to the hip I flip like acrobats on heroine
      Kind of a backward thinking when I rhyme
      Because I’ll shake your hand and stab your back at the same time
      I sleaze when I displays like fester but you can’t tell I’m portable while you get bleached
      Who style is fatter this year? Plus rapper Elemental is capping styles like the Mad Hatter
      Would for real ended up confused or defeated
      Bionic, mathematic, organic human man killer
      G-Knight you rep for (?) MCs who can’t flex
      With skills swing snap your cypher
      It’s time to release your left rhymes
      (?) the few spectators fell I’ll leave you (?) unconvertable
      Suburb child with my connections in the borough
      When times gets rough I get disguised by my verbal
      [Hook]
      Carry on
      Never do crime to all mankind
      Make the line feel the pain I’m running out of time
      No lies will get done I never had a gun
      I’m leaving you with drama when G-Knight brings the drummer
      Carry on
      Never do crime to all mankind
      Make the line feel the pain I’m running out of time
      No lies will get done I never had a gun
      I’m leaving you with drama when the G-Knight brings the drummer
      [Outro]
      Check it out
      All I have is God, my God…
      And I thought
      All I have is God
      I’m gone
