about

HIP HOP. WTF happened to you?
Let's take it back to the days when real dope is recognized.
Everybody keeps asking for the dope shit, yet nobody reaches into
the underground to put those artists on the next level platform even when the talent is undeniable and noticed by their peers. Massive budgets are spent on mass producing the same sound and the same type of rappers regardless of talent and purposely pushing a poisonous message of f*ck the world, get yours, drugs, guns, b*tches, murder, bullshit.

Artists are expected to blow up first and then they are accepted. It's about numbers now. Damn.

YALL ARE VIOLATING! STRAIGHT UP AND DOWN!

This is a re-interpretation of Supa Star by Group Home and Please Listen To My Demo by EPMD. The beat is not a loop of the original by DJ Premier
( Salute to Preem! ). It has been reconstructed using the original samples and twisted to fit the Cwesttheory format.

Salute to DJ Premier and Group Home
Long live GURU X GANG STARR
Salute to the gods EPMD

THIS IS THE REMIX.

lyrics

Verse One - Tim

HIP HOP
was set out
in the dark
dear mother
I used to love H.E.R.
then Pac got shot
20 years flew by
All Eyez On Me
now the game
is full of
PIMPS
armed robbers
&
thieves
b*tches in weave
&
killaz in stretch jeans
I'm feeling myself
yes
like it's a wet dream
I'm still at my best
BLESSED
all the way up
mayne
GRIND
building my wealth
WAVE
like n*gga
jet ski
Lest We
Forget that Hip Hop
wasn't all about
the f*ckin numbers
remember Yo MTV
FAB 5 FREDDY
DRE
ED LOVER?
WHAT ABOUT MONIE LOVE
&
TONY TOUCH?
WHAT BOUT COLD CRUSH?
and now they charge us just
2 open up....?
WTF
happened to you
used to be the street rules
now
The Industry Rules
RUFF DRAFT
DILLA
i'm distortin in ya limo?
Then grap a tape deck n*gga
and listen 2 my demo

Verse Two - Dobbins

standard industry protocols
choked the underground and overall
errybody in hip hop got corporate
remember when the source hit
now they dont report it
if u lack resources
they get offended if it aint a chronic mix
fuk that this is hip hop
my lo-fi sonics splits your ears though
and the bass offends most
but i dont give a damn if it breaks my back window
i'm independent w a budget called nothing
my microphone's an i-phone
that's how the culture began
u want that xbox mix
i got that tecmo nintendo on mp3
if that's too dirty for your limo
crank the boombox and please listen to my demo
