Luyện nghe bài hát 9 Elements

Well my and gentlemen

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

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

One: Breaking or dancing

b-boying, freestyle or street dancin'

Two: or rap
Divine speech what I'm right now no act
Three: Grafitti art or burning

Taggin', writin', now learning! uh!

Four : DJ'ing, we playing!

{*scratch* You what I'm saying!

: Beatboxing

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

Catchin' the eye while cats walk on by

Street language, our verbal communication

Our codes throughout the

Eight: Street knowledge, common

The wisdom of the elders way back whence

Nine : entrepreneur 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 checkin' us out this hour, we teachin' Hip Hop;

Holy Integrated People Havin' Power."

Rap is you do!

3x is something you live! *scratched*

Rap is you do!

Hip-Hop is you live! *scratched*

Skaters, BMX bike riders,

Don't you stop! You are hip-hop

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

You you be packing that black block

Selling that crack and ecstacy

Gettin' pissy drunk, fallin' out to me

But I told those in the ghettos

Here's the facts! True is so much more than that

Some much more than rap, so much more than

Hip-hop is all about victory over the

you see on TV is a lie

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

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

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

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

Others wanna your mind! Kris wanna free it!

Rap is you do!

5x Hip-Hop is something you live!

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

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

You know that's why these can't hang

Cause the of hip-hop is not a material thang

They so careless, hip-hop is in a {? we
Rap we do, we live

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

And you hip-hoppers sit and okay it

Think it! (think about it)

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

[Chorus: 3X]

Hip-Hop is you live!
