Boogie Down Productions - Hip Hop Rules lyrics
[Boogie Down Productions - Hip Hop Rules lyrics]
Come again down man
This is KRS-One on to wreck
RUFF RUFF RUFF stuff
So we're gonna do it like this now
Put up your hands if you love
Hip-hop music like I do, seen?
And we gonna do it like this now
Listen to the lyrics! Bo!
Me say "Hi!"p-hop rule, hip-hop rule
And these other industries out
Here cannot take it, come again!
Hip-hop rule, hip-hop rule
And these other industries out
Here cannot take it, we want!
Rap music, we want the rap music, bo!
Rap music, we want the rap music, come again!
Rap music, we want the rap music, bo!
Rap music, we want the rap music
Way back in the days, 1979
Fatback Band made a record usin' rhyme
In the same year come the Sugarhill Gang
With the pow pow boogie
And the big bang bang
R&B, Disco, Pop Country Jazz
All thought Hip-Hop, was just a little fad
But here comes Grandmaster Flash nonstop
And right after Flash, Run-DMC dropped
Now, they had to pay attention to the scale
Where other music failed, hip-hop prevailed
See rap music has gone
Platinum from the start
So now in eighty-nine we gettin'
Present as an art me ask, is it because
We've got the eighty-nine vision?
Whoa whoa whoa!
Or is it because, it's a unanimous decision
Hey hey hey hey
That hip-hop rule, hip-hop rule
And these other industries out
Here cannot take it, come again!
Hip-hop rule, hip-hop rule
And these other industries out
Here cannot take it, we want!
Rap music, we want the rap music, bo!
Rap music, we want the rap music, come again!
Rap music, we want the rap music, come down!
Rap music, we want the rap music
I pick up the mic and put down crazy lyrics
I put it 'pon the phonograph
So everyone can hear it
You want to sound like me bwoy
You can't come near it
'Cause when I flash a new style
The people dem a cheer it
You get so jealous 'til you
Just can't bear it
Jealous of Ms melodie, me and Derek
See Derek is D-Nice, and I'm KRS-One ah
We'll rock ya in the winter and
We rocked ya last summer
You want to battle me you got
To wake up in the morning
'Cause if you're still sleepin'
Then I'ma start yawnin'
Because ah hip-hop rule, hip-hop rule
And these other industries out
Here cannot take it, come again!
Hip-hop rule, hip-hop rule
And these other industries out
Here cannot take it, we want!
Rap music, we want the rap music, bo!
Rap music, we want the rap music, come again!
Rap music, we want the rap music, come down!
Rap music, we want the rap music
Just, put up your hands if you like rap music
Put up your hands if you like rap music
Ms melodie boy she always on the mixer
And D-Square, love rap music ah
DJ Doc boy yes he's on the mix and
KRS-One'll flash a lyric, we say
Here comes Yvette, on the lyric and
Big Kap, rockin' on the mix and
BDP boy we'll flash a lyric a
Knock the suckers down every
Time dem hear it, because
Hip-hop rule, hip-hop rule
And these other industries out
Here cannot take it, come down!
Come again! We want!
Bo! Come again!
