Wax Tailor - Once Upon A Past (full) lyrics
[Wax Tailor - Once Upon A Past full lyrics]
How shall I begin my story
That has no beginning
The sampler, as well as the turntable
Were principal tools, largely responsible
For the birth and development of Hip-Hop
With a sampler any drum beat, any guitar riff
Any sound that could be recorded
Could be used as part of a new composition
A new contextualization
The recording you are listening to
Now is an example
Where a cultural production
Enlists musically
That was full of possibilities
By virtue of being able to freely appropriate
From the musical past
And to make new combinations
And thus, new meanings
The story demonstrates
That the society quote
Free to borrow and built upon a past
Is culturally richer than a controlled one
That has no beginning
The sampler, as well as the turntable
Were principal tools, largely responsible
For the birth and development of Hip-Hop
With a sampler any drum beat, any guitar riff
Any sound that could be recorded
Could be used as part of a new composition
A new contextualization
The recording you are listening to
Now is an example
Where a cultural production
Enlists musically
That was full of possibilities
By virtue of being able to freely appropriate
From the musical past
And to make new combinations
And thus, new meanings
The story demonstrates
That the society quote
Free to borrow and built upon a past
Is culturally richer than a controlled one
