UP NORTH [THAT FLOW]
I STARTED LISTENING TO RAP BACK IN THE 70s WHEN RAP WAS A TRUE STREET CORNER THING. THE FIRST RAP I EVER HEARD WAS A RAP CALLED PEANUT BUTTER, IT WAS ON A 12 INCH. THEN DUDES AROUND MY WAY WAS SPITTIN HUSTLERS CONVENTION ANOTHER STREET CORNER RAP. SUGARHILL WAS RELEASED THAT SAME SUMMER , THEN ALONG CAME GRANDMASTER FLASH WITH THIS RAP.

THIS WAS HOW WE LIVED THIS WAS HOW WE FELT! RAP KEPT ON RISING AND THE MESSAGE GOT STRONGER, IT WAS ABOUT AFRICA AND EMPOWERMENT, EVEN THE PARTY MUSIC OF AFRIKA BAMMBATTA TALKED ABOUT OUR ROOTS. ZULU NATION AND THE RED BLACK AND THE GREEN.

TODAY MOST RAP HAS DEVOLVED INTO A TANGLED MESS WITH FALSE SHOWS OF BRAVADO AND FASHION SHOWS. IT AINT ABOUT WHAT A PERSON WEARS BUT WHERE HIS HEART IS AT. WILL YOUR WORDS MATTER IN THE FUTURE?
THAT FLOW

I SIT HERE AND STEW IN A PIT OF DECISION, WHERE PUNK ASS RAPPERS FALL TO THE WAYSIDE TO BE CHEWED UP BY THIS VERBAL PRECISION. ON THIS PLANE WHERE I DWELL I SEE THE LIES OF THE ILLUMINATI, DEGREES OF KNOWLEDGE THAT ERUPT FROM THIS DEMENTED PSYCHOLOGY. SOME OF THE PEOPLE WHO SEE ME CALL ME A PRODIGY, THATS A MISNOMER CAUSE IN REALITY I'M A SAMURAI LYRICAL BEAST. IN THE TEMPLE OF ALLAH WAS I BLESSED WITH THESE LICKS, FAKE RAPPERS REMIND ME OF BUNNY RABBITS AS THEY TRY TO GET A BOX OF TRIX. I WILL TAKE YOU TO THE DEPTHS OF SPACE, BEYOND THOUGHTS OF CLOTHES, GOLD, AND RACE. FIND ME IN THE PREACHERS FACE ASKING HIM WHY HE LIES ON ALLAH, FLIP THAT WORD AND YOU GET THE NAME DOG. 360 DEGREES OF INTERPLANETARY KNOWLEDGE ON THE LEVEL OF ALLAH, FYAH ERUPTS FROM THE MOUTH OF A DRAGON YOUR LYRICS IS FLAW. SWORDS THAT FLY THROUGH THE AIR TO SLIT THROATS BLOOD ON POLISHED STEEL, WATCH ME AS I STAND ON THIS WATER A NEW AGE PROPHET IS HOW I FEEL. I TAKE THIS SHIT AND FLIP THESE SCRIPTS LIKE A DIRECTOR ON A MOVIE SET, BULLETS FROM THE BARREL OF A TECH.
