Luyện nghe bài hát HipHop Knowledge

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

1987, I was at the Quarters
to Africa Bambaata give the order
The call of the order was to the slaughter
He said, "Record companies ain't got for ya"
Without a lawyer, he taught The Infinity
In how hip-hop could be a, a blessing
And that was great, so in
was no debate, we had to end the hate

The name of the game was Stop the
And unity, knowledge, and
We talkin' 'bout Martin and Malcolm
Had these kids goin', huh, what about him?
1989, Professor Griff speaks his
But his of speech is declined
1990, with the West coast
East coast, coast, who is the best coast?

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

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

So in 1992, I my crew
They said, "Yo Kris, what you do?"
I said, "Damn, why wanna get with me?
If I they I'm contradictory"
If I play the role, they take my shoe
me what 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 get with me
That, you and pen
If a wanna diss, yo I'd do it again
But I'm makin' ends, and I got my friends
And I really wanna have to sit in the pen
So I go back to the
1993, hip-hop is uhh,

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

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

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

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

Mic Conception, all of them,
Yo you need help? I should call
When I was in L.A., I held the
Bloods, Crips, held me down
I could never forget Mad Lion, killer
the gat in the lap in the low-ride
Oh, I can't forget, Icy Ice, Lou
Julio G, was the crew

D, Ingrid, David Connor
The list on and on, let me tell ya
FredWreck, and my man
Much respect, no
To my spiritual and defenders
Big up to L.A., members
But in 2000, I how I wanted to live
I no executive

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

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

{Well, well, hip-hop, we are advocating 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 we do, but hip-hop is something we live
And we look at hip-hop, in it's 9
Which is breaking, emceeing, graffiti art, deejaying,
Street fashion, street language, street knowledge, and
Entrepenurialism, and business}

uhh, that's where y'know
That's the hip-hop that that that we're
We come from the uhh the of, of Kool DJ Herc
Who originated hip-hop in the early
And then Bambaata and Zulu Nation
Who instigated something called The Infinity
And added consciousness to hip-hop, and Grandmaster Flash
With the invention of the mixer, on to Run-D.M.C. and then

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