Luyện nghe bài hát HipHop Knowledge

You know, life is
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 Latin
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 The Infinity Lessons
In how hip-hop be a, many a blessing
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 kids goin', huh, what about him?
1989, Griff speaks his mind
But his freedom of is declined
1990, with the West coast
East coast, coast, who is the best coast?

Lookin' back now, of course it was
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
With Education Against Lies, we tried

To about the state of humanity
But all others rappers got mad at me
They called me Captain Human, another was sent
Self Destruction don't pay the
Remember that? wanted conscious rap
It was where these ballers at
Where can call us at? All was wack
Hip-hop was fallin' flat and that was that

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

Kay Are Ess One is
Just 'cause I wouldn't let these get with 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 Allen Rhythm Cultural Institute
Blowin' 1 up,
Conscious rap is still
But nobody wanna it, nobody wanna say it
Nobody okayed it, all rather hate it

1996, it really don't
We put somethin' called the Temple of hip-hop
Not DJin', breakin', graf and lyrics
But how affects the spirit
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 clothes and hoes, but that me
be damned if I dance for the MTV
So in 1998, I began to
Should I go now, or I really wait?
'99, I to L.A. you see
And a gig with the WB
studyin' philosophy full-time
To have a heart, full body, full mind

But you know what the is or was
DJ's don't our kids, 'cause
They so up in the cash and jewels
How they really 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,
Especially Xzibit, he was in a minute

Mic Conception, all of them,
Yo you need help? I call them
I was in L.A., I held the crown
Bloods, Crips, they held me
I could never Mad Lion, killer pride
With the gat in the lap in the
Oh, I forget, Icy Ice, Lucky 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 and mental defenders
Big up to L.A., members
But in 2000, I seen how I wanted to
I no executive

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
companies ain't got nuttin' for ya"
Damn, she took me to Bam
me back to who I am
Brought me back to the New land
Now I

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

{Well, well, today hip-hop, we are advocating 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 hip-hop is something we
And we at hip-hop, in it's 9 elements
Which is breaking, emceeing, 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 from the uhh the root of, of Kool DJ Herc
Who hip-hop in the early 70's
And then Bambaata and Zulu Nation
Who instigated something called The 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 Stop the 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 and, and acts in society}
