Luyện nghe bài hát HipHop Knowledge

You know, is funny
If you don't the actions of your own success
You won't be
You gotta your own formula, your own ingredients
What you, you

1987, I was at the Quarters
Listenin' to Africa Bambaata the order
The of the order was to avoid the slaughter
He said, "Record ain't got nuttin for ya"
Without a lawyer, he The Infinity Lessons
In how hip-hop could be a, many a
And was great, so in 1988
There was no debate, we had to end the

The name of the game was Stop the
And unity, knowledge, and
We started 'bout Martin and Malcolm
Had these ghetto goin', huh, what about him?
1989, Professor Griff his mind
But his freedom of is declined
1990, came with the coast
East coast, coast, who is the best coast?

Lookin' back now, of it was bogus
The argument was where we lost focus
We got hopeless, not with the lyrics and
But with hip-hop, and how we it
Or it, you know how the crew get
You like it you choose it
1991, we our eyes
Human Education Against Lies, we tried

To talk the state of humanity
But all these rappers got mad at me
They called me Captain Human, another was sent
Self don't pay the rent
that? Nobody wanted conscious rap
It was where these ballers at
Where can they call us at? All was
Hip-hop culture was flat and that was that

So in 1992, I found my
said, "Yo Kris, what you wanna do?"
I said, "Damn, why wanna get with me?
If I they I'm contradictory"
If I play the bitch role, they my shoe
Tell me the am I supposed to do?
So I did it, don't get it get it get it
All of a sudden these critics wanna spit it

Kay Are Ess One is
Just 'cause I wouldn't let these rappers get me
That, you and pen
If a rapper wanna diss, yo I'd do it
But I'm makin' these ends, and I got my
And I really wanna have to sit in the pen
So I go back to the
1993, hip-hop is uhh,

Go back, the facts
1994, of the Boom Bap
It all about the loot
It was all about Harry Rhythm Cultural Institute
Blowin' 1 up,
Conscious rap is alive
But nobody wanna play it, wanna say it
Nobody okayed it, they'd all rather it

1996, it don't stop
We put together somethin' called the of hip-hop
Not DJin', breakin', graf and lyrics
But how hip-hop affects the
Into a World, that's what I did
1997, I was my kid
Or kids, but I, had to go
'Cause New York changed the flows

To clothes and hoes, but wasn't me
I'll be damned if I for the MTV
So in 1998, I began to
I go now, or should I really wait?
'99, I to L.A. you see
And a gig with the WB
Started studyin' philosophy
To have a full heart, full body, mind

But you what the problem is or was
don't raise our kids, 'cause
They so up in the cash and jewels
How they gonna see a hip-hop school?
How gonna really see a hip-hop temple?
They don't even wanna my instrumentals, but
Big up Dr. Dre, Snoop,
Especially Xzibit, he was in a minute

Mic Conception, all of them,
Yo you help? I should call them
I was in L.A., I held the crown
Bloods, Crips, they held me
I could never forget Mad Lion, killer
With the gat in the lap in the
Oh, I can't forget, Icy Ice, Lou
G, that was the crew

Davey D, Ingrid, David
The list on and on, let me tell ya
FredWreck, and my man
respect, no less
To my spiritual and mental
Big up to L.A., temple
But in 2000, I how I wanted to live
I wasn't no

So I picked up the mic and I my job
Said to Simone, I get with God
She said, "Don't worry bout dollars and quarters
Record companies got nuttin' for ya"
Damn, she took me to Bam
Took me to who I am
Brought me back to the New York
Now I

{Now KRS-One, now you've quoted as saying that
Rap is something we do, hip-hop is you live
Yes
that to us please}

{Well, well, today hip-hop, we are that hip-hop is not
a music, it is an attitude, it is an awareness, it is a way
To the world
So rap music, is something we do, but is something we live
And we at hip-hop, in it's 9 elements
is breaking, emceeing, graffiti art, deejaying, beatboxing
Street fashion, street language, knowledge, and street
Entrepenurialism, and business}

{And uhh, where y'know
That's the hip-hop that that that about
We come from the uhh the root of, of Kool DJ
Who originated hip-hop in the 70's
And then Africa Bambaata and Nation
Who something called The Infinity Lessons
And consciousness to hip-hop, and then Grandmaster Flash
With the invention of the mixer, on to Run-D.M.C. and then

{And uhh, we created the the Violence movement, you may recall
A song, Destruction and and and so on
All of this, goes to uhh uhh, the idea of living culture out
And taking responsibility for how it looks and, and in society}
