Luyện nghe bài hát 9 Elements

Well my and gentlemen

This is a rap and my name is "KRS-ONE!"

And when I talk about "Hip-Hop Music!", I

One: or break dancing

Really b-boying, freestyle or street

MC'ing or rap
Divine speech what I'm doing now no act
Grafitti art or burning bombin'

Taggin', writin', now learning! uh!

Four : DJ'ing, we playing!

{*scratch* You know I'm saying!

: Beatboxing

Give me a Yes and we rockin'!
Six: Street fashion, fly

Catchin' the eye while them walk on by

Seven: language, our verbal communication

Our codes throughout the

Eight: Street knowledge, sense

The wisdom of the elders from way whence

Nine : Street realism
No job, just get up 'em and get 'em

Here's how I'm it, all 9 Elements

We stand in love, no we're never it

No doubt

Hip-Hop? We're not selling it out, just lettin' it out

"If you're checkin' us out this hour, we Hip Hop;

Holy Integrated Havin' Omnipresent Power."

Rap is you do!

3x is something you live! *scratched*

Rap is you do!

Hip-Hop is something you live!

Skaters, BMX riders, rock

Don't you ever stop! You are

You doing the things we did on our block in the suburbs

You you be packing that black block

Selling that crack rock and

Gettin' pissy drunk, fallin' out to me

But like I told in the ghettos

Here's the facts! True hip-hop is so much more that

Some much more than rap, so much more beats

Hip-hop is all about over the streets

you see on TV is a lie

That's not something you wanna live or your life by

But, huh that's too preachin' ain't it?

You don't want the "edutainment", you be dead on the pavement

Well, so be it, some of ain't gonna see it

Others wanna enslave mind! Kris wanna free it!

Rap is you do!

5x is something you live! *scratched*

"Oh yea" *scratched* --- "P is free"

"I have spent my life livin'", "talk to the fullest", "no doubt"

You know that's why these rappers hang

Cause the essence of is not a material thang

They so careless, is in a {? we give
Rap we do, we live

How times I gotta say it? How the radio ain't gonna play it

And you hip-hoppers sit and okay it

about it! (think about it)

The course of action, we have got to reroute it!

[Chorus: 3X]

Hip-Hop is you live!
