Akbar - Hip Hop Is Lyrics
YoWhat is hip hop?What does it mean?Where's it come from?Where's it going?I love hip hop, when I walk I ditty-bopNew York when I talk, I give my city propsAt least every 52 weeks my committee dropsYet another butta banger, straight off the hangerAll lines are busy, your mind is dizzyMy shine is divine, you'll never find a MCGreater, Jun 1 operates the faderIn the crates droppin more plates than a clumsy waiterNow this is what hip hop isSo pay attention son, cause when I'm done there may be a pop quizHip hop is... a DJ cuttinAdjustin pitches, hittin switches and mashin buttonsHip hop is... a b-boy struttinOn the dancefloor for the hardcore clout andWe bumrush the show when the doors start shuttinHip hop is... when you make somethin out of nothinLike "jigga-boom-bap, to the beat y'all"My name in fly colors on a concrete wallHip hop is... a style that's wildA ghetto child lookin for a reason to smileHip hop is the application of street knowledgeFrom modern day situations not learned in collegeThis is real life, real MC's with steel micsA juggle, a constant struggle when you feel strifeHip hop is... a way of hope, a display of dopeThat started in the Bronx to spread across the globeThat's what hip hop is(Check it outIs New York in the house, make some noise!)Hip hop is... "Let me see your hands in the sky"Hip hop is... "Damn, that jam was fly!"Hip hop is... "Clap your hands, stomp your feet"Change the beat, this is what they playin in the streetsHip hop is... when you feel the treble and bassAnd your heart starts to race at an incredible paceThat's what hip hop is(People in the place)That's hip hop y'all(People in the place)(Say ho-o)(People in the place)(Say awww)(People in the place)(Say ho-o)(People in the place to be)(I'ma lay it on your right now)(Rock and you don't stop)(Rock on)(Rock and you don't stop)(Rock on)(Rock and you don't stop)(Rock on)(Rock and you don't stop)(Rock on)(...mike is gonna say all the rhymes that you like)
