Yeah, Yo
Damn, I hate it when it rain ever since I came in the game
Some hated on the fame, a lot of niggas done changed and started actin strange
Even labels turning they backs and started backing claims, radio is the same
a whole lot of speculatin these mutha f***as defacatin on the name
Woot Tang, if this where the Hip Hop is
Radio lyin den, That aint where they hip hop live
It live in the streets We eat to live, they livin to eat
Im fed up, that niggaritis in em, givin em sleep
RIP, may be the king of all I see
And when death call im good I got caller id, see it was planned in the front
Now they just gonna front, Like my joints is on proactive
and they just don’t bump, then niggas gonna say I lost my skill
when in fact they all been programmed and lost they feel fo real
They got so much things to say right now.
They got so much things to say.
They got so much things to say right now.
They got so much things to say.
Damn, another artist chokes again
They aint cut as close as him or even broke da skin
See how niggas aint ya friends when there aint no ends
Don’t care who the case offend don’t underrate my pen
I got what it takes to win, while ya’ll are thinking im trash
Lovin the taste of success and this drink in my glass
Watch em Cosign that whack sh**, give it a pass till its gone
Quicker than Red, can’t get rid of dem crabs
When they wrong call the cops they credibility shot
Its time to learn what hot really is and really is not
Off brand niggas, Meth gonna let em know off top
Don’t get smacked on DvDs tryin to show off blocks
I cant stop cause my enemies plot or cause the cops want me
Shackled and locked inside the penalty box
And while they waitin for my sh** to flop they gettin pimped like hoes
Sellin they ass just to get my spot, Come on man!
They got so much things to say right now.
They got so much things to say.
They got so much things to say right now.
Method Man : Yeah yo
They got so much things to say.
Ask Miss Hill, half these critics aint got half the skill
Often so hungry that they have to steal
If I didn’t have my deal and didn’t have this mass appeal
Then im back up in that trap swingin crack, it’s real
And that aint worth the time so search and find a new nerve
And here’s 3 words stop working mine, it’d take a lot more to Hurt my pride
Jerk my vibe, more than media lies, cry when dirt dog die nigga
The last album wasn’t feeling my style, this time my foot up in they ass
Bet they feelin me now, cause tacow ,he put his heart in every track he do
But somehow, you find someway to give a whack review, It aint all good,
they writin that im Hollywood, trying to tell you my sh** aint ghetto and they hardly hood.
Come on man
Until you dudes can write some rhymes keep that in mind when you find yourself reciting mines
They got so much things to say right now.
They got so much things to say.
They got so much things to say right now. Method Man : Yeah yo
They got so much things to say. |

rappers build, shape, and grow the culture of rap. Thus, it is through their unified actions that "rap" changes. Obviously, rap conforms to them.
Yet, a lot of weak suckaz who claim they rap are nothing but wannabeez, and they simply conform to da game.
So it's pretty much a bit of both in there for ya, David. |

Is it really possible for rap to "conform" per se? Or is what we view as rap itself "conforming" really just our perception of a progression of events and the direct results thereof? |

That's exactly what I meant, David. Something may only "conform" if it has a choice to conformity. Rap does not have that choice. It's shaped by the actions and forces of others - it is in fact inhumane. So, yes, it is simply progressing in the direction drawn out by da game's participants, aka rappers.
I'm glad you're with us this afternoon, we'll take a short break during these commercials, and be right back here on Friday's Digest: With Stan & Dave. |
