I wanna lie to you sometimes. . . but I can't. I wanna tell you that it's all good. . . but it ain't.
I'm sautéing emcees with fried rice up in the wok without the MSG and chopped celery.
There's the shared imagery between hip-hop and comics, with some producers and emcees taking on super hero personas.
Hip Hop has its ups and downs but I'm gonna do my best to not necessarily bring that back but just remind people what they are forgetting about.
I got a letter from the government the other day I opened and read it. . . it said they were suckers.
I scored 1. 1 on my SAT, And still push a whip with a right and left AC.
It seem like everybody dress tight now, And I just want my credit.
It's just hypocrisy on hip-hop's part to cry racial profiling when your race is on TV acting like fools.
I didn't want to go out and change anything. I just wanted to make the music that was part of my background, which was rock and blues and hip-hop.
When I'm actually creating music, I try not to listen to the hip-hop records that are going on, because I think, subconsciously, we steal from each other. If you're listening to a record and it's really hot, then you'll be looking for something that feels like that, or that has a version of it.
Player haters be givin' me harsh looks, But I'm tryin to sell records like Garth Brooks.
People have stopped battling in hip hop, in the primitive sense, and the focus of the competitive element has shifted to the music. It's less about bragging and more about being the best lyrically and poetically.
We shoppers, you bloggers. If money talks, you mumblers. You try it on, then take it off, Then post a pic on your tumblrs.
Million dollar deals in my email, you mad as hell you ain't CC'ed
If I should die this very day, Don't cry. . . cause on Earth We wasn't meant to stay.
I love hip-hop, because you can do this like that and still be super successful! You ain't gotta hold your tongue.
I'll let a mystery gas out of my blistery ass Just to disrupt the misery of history class.
There was no match for Barry White. His music is just going to live forever. It's not limited to disco or soul or hip-hop or anything.
Man I wouldn't want to be in [MGK's] position right now. . . He's just oblivious to what's going on.
For quiet times disappear listen to the ocean
