Luyện nghe bài hát HipHop Knowledge

You know, life is
If you repeat the actions of your own success
You be successful
You gotta your own formula, your own ingredients
What 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 got nuttin for ya"
a lawyer, he taught The Infinity Lessons
In how hip-hop could be a, a blessing
And was great, so in 1988
There was no debate, we had to end the

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

back now, of course it was bogus
The whole argument was where we lost
We got hopeless, not the lyrics and music
But hip-hop, and how we used it
Or it, you know how the crew get
You it cause you choose it
1991, we our eyes
With Human Education Lies, we tried

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

So in 1992, I my crew
They said, "Yo Kris, you wanna do?"
I said, "Damn, why they get with me?
If I bust I'm contradictory"
If I the bitch 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 these critics they wanna spit it

Kay Are Ess One is
Just 'cause I let these rappers get with me
That, you and pen
If a rapper diss, yo I'd do it again
But I'm these ends, and I got my friends
And I really don't 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 wasn't all about the
It was all about Harry Allen Rhythm Cultural
1 up, 1995
Conscious rap is alive
But nobody wanna play it, nobody say it
Nobody okayed it, they'd all rather it

1996, it really don't
We put together somethin' called the Temple of
Not just DJin', breakin', graf and
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
be damned if I dance for the MTV
So in 1998, I to debate
Should I go now, or should I really
'99, I to L.A. you see
And took a gig the WB
Started studyin' full-time
To have a full heart, body, full mind

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

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

Davey D, Ingrid, David
The goes 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 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
me back to the New York land
Now I

{Now KRS-One, now you've been as saying that
Rap is we do, hip-hop is something you live
Yes
Explain 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 we do, but hip-hop is something we live
And we look at hip-hop, in it's 9
is breaking, emceeing, graffiti art, deejaying, beatboxing
Street fashion, street language, street knowledge, and
Entrepenurialism, and business}

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

{And uhh, we the Stop the Violence 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 and, and acts in society}
