Luyện nghe bài hát HipHop Knowledge

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

1987, I was at the Quarters
Listenin' to Africa Bambaata the order
The call of the was to avoid 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, many a
And was great, so in 1988
was no debate, we had to end the hate

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

Lookin' now, of course it was bogus
The whole argument was where we lost
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 opened our
With Human Education Lies, we tried

To talk the state of humanity
But all these others got mad at me
They called me Captain Human, message was sent
Destruction don't pay the rent
Remember that? wanted conscious rap
It was like where these at
can they call us at? All was wack
Hip-hop culture was flat and that was that

So in 1992, I my crew
They said, "Yo Kris, what you do?"
I said, "Damn, why they get with me?
If I they I'm contradictory"
If I play the bitch role, they take my
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 rappers get with me
That, you and pen
If a wanna diss, yo I'd do it again
But I'm these ends, and I got my friends
And I really don't wanna to sit in the pen
So I go to the philosopher
1993, hip-hop is uhh,

Go back, check the
1994, return of the Bap
It wasn't all the loot
It was all about Harry Rhythm Cultural Institute
Blowin' 1 up,
Conscious rap is alive
But wanna play it, nobody wanna say it
Nobody it, they'd all rather hate it

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

To clothes and hoes, but wasn't me
be damned if I dance for the MTV
So in 1998, I to debate
Should I go now, or should I wait?
'99, I to L.A. you see
And took a gig the WB
Started studyin' full-time
To a full heart, full body, full mind

But you what the problem is or was
don't raise our kids, 'cause
They so caught up in the and jewels
How they gonna see a hip-hop school?
How they gonna really see a temple?
They don't 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 I should call them
I was in L.A., I held the crown
Bloods, Crips, they held me
I could forget Mad Lion, killer pride
the gat in the lap in the low-ride
Oh, I can't forget, Icy Ice, Lou
Julio G, was the crew

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

So I picked up the mic and I my job
Said to Simone, I gotta get God
She said, "Don't worry these 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

KRS-One, now you've been quoted as saying that
Rap is something we do, hip-hop is you live
Yes
Explain that to us

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

{And uhh, that's where
That's the hip-hop that that that we're
We from the uhh the root of, of Kool DJ Herc
Who hip-hop in the early 70's
And then Africa and Zulu Nation
Who something called The Infinity Lessons
And added consciousness to hip-hop, and Grandmaster Flash
With the invention of the mixer, on to Run-D.M.C. and then

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