Fuck 50 Pence. There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently | |

Don't Say Nuthin'
[Verse 1 - Black Thought] Yeah! That all mighty amazing, ill, highly contagious Kamikaze south splash like it shot from a gauge Until your body sound clash Head of the Class, Magna Cum Laude Beats bring the beast out me, flagrant - foul rowdy Reed pipe but deed tight, disposition keep on flipping Keep em playing they position Keep making the people listen what I spin Put em out on a limb Got tears, got blood, got sweat, leaking out of the pen Y'all fake niggas not setting a trend We never listen to them It's like trying to take a piss in the wind My home team doing visitors in, yo don't test em They all standing close to the edge, so don't stress em Now who the type built to last? It's no question, the Master! Villain in Black wit no stets in my sound Hitting you hard from - every direction Your head and shoulder, area your midsection dawg! [Chorus] Yeah..... Give it here, and don't say nuthin Just give it here, and don't say nuthin .....Cut the check Give it here, and don't say nuthin Nigga, give it here, and don't say nuthin [Verse 2 - Black Thought] Yeah, Illadel! Home of the original gun clappers Out on the wrong corner your shit'll get spun backwards You got the fool wanting the rules, enter at risk Or your own nana'll keep a gat under the matress Shorties running reckless from Philly to Texas Suprising what niggas willing to do to get a necklace Some emotions felt better left unexpressed at times Niggas' crime record longer than a guest list Yes, I done seen things you wouldn't believe Seen people reach levels thought they'd never achieve Silhouettes waiting in the wings ready to D Thirst decise or need at least a buck to breathe C'mon! Stick up kids, they be out to tax Most times they be sticking you without the gats I'll still be on the grind when it all collapse And if it's my worst bar then I'm a take it right back nigga [Chorus] [Verse 3 - Black Thought] Yeah, it ain't nothin like I rush I get, in front of the band On stage wit the planet in the palm of my hand When a brother transform, from aynonomous man To the force, crush whoever might of thought I was playin I'ma flame some, sentence the shit, the cold twist to slang Thicker than big boy baby, mom, sister pain Beyond measure, relaxed under pressure You see the master piece, but to me it's unperfected Give it here Geffen Records, I'm off the handle Cut the check, and yo it better be as heavy as anvil Next joint comin, all bets is cancelled Nigga black ink, red was a G finacial We finna have the whole industry at a stand still See me put the system on lock like can pill So get wit them endorsements, and call reinforcements Cause my click come a full sizeable portions [Chorus] "Pedro offers you his protection." | |

Yeah, I know the main audible part of the chorus is taken from bridge of Joe Tex's "I Got Cha", but I was talking about the mumbling. Its done very similiarly to 50 Cent's style of rapping, that's why I thought this. | |

although that makes perfect sense, the folx over at Okayplayer claim that the mumbling came b/c BT didn't have a hook and the 'suits' told him the song needed a hook, so in a true rebel sense, they mumbled something and it stuck. ...but BK, I like your explaination better.

We need us a black weird Al to drop a CD making fun of all these busters. Problem is, he'd probably get killed by one of these mumble-mouthed mutha ...kas who can't take a joke. | |

album review: By Lynne d Johnson.
"Shorty ain’t scared of change. I’m saying, on the real., I’m not. But I am a firm believer in the adage, “If the s*** ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” So on April 14, when The Roots held a listening session at the Electric Lady Studios in New York for their new album The Tipping Point, to be released in June and some of the tracks sounded other than Roots-like, there was of course a moment of pause." continue and read the track by track breakdown on http://www.vibe.com/modul...=0&thold=0 "Pedro offers you his protection." | |
