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: Breaking or break

Really b-boying, or street dancin'

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

Taggin', writin', now learning! uh!

: DJ'ing, we ain't playing!

{*scratch* You what I'm saying!

Five :

me a {*beatboxin* Yes and we rockin'!
Six: Street fashion, fly

Catchin' the eye them cats walk on by

Seven: Street language, our communication

Our codes the nation

Eight: knowledge, common sense

The wisdom of the elders way back whence

: Street entrepreneur realism
No job, get up call 'em and get 'em

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

We in love, no we're never failing it

No doubt

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

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

Holy People Havin' Omnipresent Power."

Rap is you do!

3x is something you live! *scratched*

Rap is you do!

is something you live! *scratched*

Skaters, BMX riders, rock

Don't you ever stop! You are

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

You know you be that black block

Selling that rock and ecstacy

Gettin' pissy drunk, fallin' out to me

But like I those in the ghettos

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

Some more than rap, so much more than beats

Hip-hop is all about victory over the

you see on TV is a lie

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

But, huh that's too much preachin' it?

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

Well, so be it, some of ya'll ain't see it

Others wanna enslave your mind! Kris wanna it!

Rap is you do!

5x is something you live! *scratched*

"Oh yea" --- From "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 many times I say it? How the radio ain't gonna play it

And you hip-hoppers sit and okay it

Think about it! (think it)

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

[Chorus: 3X]

Hip-Hop is you live!
