That Time Again . . . best first lines in hip-hop tracks "I ain't no joke/I used to let the mike smoke/now I slam it when it's done and make sure it's broke" Eric B. & Rakim, "I Ain't No Joke"
"I got a letter from the government/the other day/I opened/and read it/it said they were suckers" Public Enemy, "Black Steel In The Hour of Chaos" "I met this girl when I was 10 years old/and what I loved most she had so much soul/she was old school but I was just a shorty/never knew throughout my life she would be there for me/on the regular" Common Sense, "I Used To Love H.E.R." "N---as is mad I get mo'butt than ash trays/f--- a fair one I get mine the fast " The Notorious B.I.G., "Flava In Ya Ear (Remix)" Just a few off the dome.

The first ones that popped into my mind:
"I reminisce for a spell, or shall I say think back 22 years ago to keep it on track" Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth - They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.) "Well, today's topic: self destruction It really ain't the rap audience that's buggin' It's one or two suckas, ignorant brothas, Tryin' to rob and steal from one another" The Stop the Violence Movement - Self Destruction "We fight every night, now that's not kosher I reminisce with bliss of when we was closer And wake up to be greeted by an argument again You act like you're ten So immature, I try to concentrate on a cure And keep looking at the front door" Main Source - Looking at the Front Door This one qualifies for sheer impact, force, and recognizability: "1989, the number, another summer (Get down) Sound of the funky drummer" Public Enemy - Fight the Power "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |

"I like big butts and I can not lie..."
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
