Nas was too kind when he said hip hop is dead
Today’s hip hop sucks, the genre’s hanging by a thread
rappers seem to sing the same song, blurred into chatter
They can’t find any sort of advanced subject matter
Guns, pussy, more guns, more pussy and drugs
Reped by Mean mugs, most pose as studio thugs
Everyone sells out trying to make that club hit
Yeah……
Down south they think that dirt shit is beautiful
After one bar, I wanna to pop pharmesuticals
To erase the sound and have some therapeutic
Relief, how can they even think that shit is music
Screaming over beats, ice grills in their mouth
Is This the best they got to offer representing the south?
I see the hard knock life is sponsored by Mercedes
To gangster rap, that shit went out in the 80’s
Wheres the progression? that stuff really getting the ladies?
Is this the torch that we really want to pass to our babies?
That’s all we got and the only reason we’re here
Hip-Hop is in danger the futures is unclear.


Most rap these days glorifies violence and killin
Again, is this the message we want to pass to the children?
Is it the result or lack of original thought?
were these the real life lessons we’re taught?
Do we perpetuate un-intelligence?
Why not try to give back something with some sort of real relevance
Too many chefs in the mix, spoiling the soup
Too many wannabes trying to emulate snoop
Too many try-to-bes my race and age
You ain’t a rapper cause you got a fucking myspace page
I mean I look across worldwide web,
All them coming out talking shit, wantin to be a celeb
There has to be over 10,000 MC’s
From illiterate folk to ones wit college degrees.
Bitch Please to many try to appease
The pop genere, go and get back on your knees
Posting whack songs made on ya PC’s
You ain’t hard, your like long island ice tees
Water downed, nuttin but wannabe G’s
Hip hop is ill, not meaning dope, it’s got a fucking disease
