bumpy knuckles & nottz - legends lyrics
[spoken]
i notice whenever hip+hop starts talking about legends
they start in the 90s…
you know, i never really thought was fair, because + you know + to me, i mean, to the best of my knowledge, the 90s is second+generation hip+hop
it’s either second+ or third+ but i think it’s more second+generation hip+hop
so, all of those guys that, you know, were our teachers and our forefathers are not getting the proper credit + in my eyes + that they should get, you know?
and recognition+wise, you know, especially, because they forget about that era of hip+hop
it was a very key era. you know, the beginning is always key
so, i like to pay homage, you know? and this is what i do
it don’t hurt to let somebody know how important they were to your style
[verse]
aaaaaaahhhhhhh….
i was 14 when the cold crush came in
wild like a young pitt pup in training
studied every element of jekyll & hyde
it’s bumpy knuckles / freddie foxxx it’s why i got 2 sides, i ride
for the spittas like dotta rock & whipper whip
who helped me establish the swagger that i’m vicious wit’
i know that “swagger” is a young boy word
but i was just a young boy when i would study they words, i heard
lil’ rodney c making history
in love wit’ sha+rock then she look so good to me
afrika bam+ kept me on my african bam
the war dance mean somebody ’bout to f+ck up the jam
moe dee was [effective?] in my flow
i use a little bit of his growl+ so you n+ggas know
t la rock & spoonie gee developed me
i spit the [supa spur?] as freddie c
i got my confidence from melle mel
’cause i believe i’m the best in the whole motherf+ckin’ world
i hit the gym and did the push+ups+ i learned that from kool herc
you f+ck wit’ me? you get your crew hurt
my knuckle game is like flash
i don’t know if flash is [the?] fighter, but i thank him ’cause i’m supa fast, word
i put the beats on a n+ggas ass
more lumps than a speech when [it’s supa+sad?], yup
the sugarhill gang helped me sweet up my underground slang
bark like kg from cc4 on these fake n+ggas that would cb4
i’m looking at n+ggas like, “how could he be raw?
he wasn’t built from the bars of the disco 4
or the fat of the disco 3.”
now y’all n+ggas know why i’m nice on this m+i+c…

salute to the legends baby
