The simplicity of this beat is Monumental--Diamond D grips the skills and shows moe foes that you dont need nothing to crazy to be a badd ass producer---The thing that kills me about Diamond D is that he never over did it or tried to out-do himself...It's as if he was humble even when he didn't speak---He let his game show how much juice and talent he had and still does. LOVE FROM SOUTH CENTRAL!!
as a reminise over ma life, my friends love pot like their wife
these dudes wanna fight, i think i just might, im gettin mad tense
rza said fight outta defense so i listen in real intense
my mind change is immense, when i stress over these girls
like they be my own infants,
ma anga comes harder than thunda then ill bomb ya like ossama and i rhyme with no comma so i sometimes think my life was a blunda but i still come harder than thunda
In a state where Race doesn't have in nor participates/just HipHop to motivate and cultivate whats within the grain..this type of flow and beat will drive a crazy man Sane/Now its time to disappear like David Blaine...POOF!!
c.. we all make our own problems in life, so before i do somethin, i wonder wat the consequence is like, gotta b responsible, syke, i always want wats not in my sight, so its all imagination, wishin that i could create it/ n make it real, make you really appreciate it, please b patient, im stuck in pandoras box, noones foolish enough 2 let this demon awaken, evils forsaken, i changed my ways n escaped it, but i feel like im waitin stuck in a state of deprivation, but im on my way to elevation..
For a minute there thought the guy in the pic was Veejay Ralph McDaniel from the classic NYC show, VIDEO MUSIC BOX...but nah, it really is Diamond D showing his stuff. For sure I'm not mistaken hearing Bobby Hutcherson's Procession. The simple chords on Bobby's piece is flawless. Diamond have an ear for music. I don't bother listening to the newer hip hop artists nowadays, seeing that they ruin good sounding music with boastful lyrics etc. No real stimuli to my mind hearing them yap.
Woke up in the mornin jumped out the bed placed a bet on the game cause i was feelin the spread 100 to 1 thats how my life roll out on parole with no intentions of goin back in the hole my mind insane goin outta control time to step up n made a goal hip hop was where i had to enroll gonna succeed or die in the fold this was just another test of the strength of my soul Life of the mc cant always be told So I Kept it real for my city as a whole Truth got me killed by the pistol
booyao- tremendo freestyle, comiendo puneta, comiendo bacalao-me da igual, voy a cambiar q el tema ta mal- nah im fucking around or am i? can i? spit when its on the screen? la pantalla? it might short circuit cuz its mixing wires with fire.. this fella is hella candela. i just joke i kid but this beat is too sick for real. analyze my rhymes come hit me up an lemme know si estan buenos. omigod pero like dis tipo me dio una inspiracion!! nino te digo una cosa! dis is hip hop verdadero
Ladies and gentlemen, this is what a think called Hip Hop is SUPPOSE to sound like, ya dig?!!! Once we got away from this, corporate america raided the industry with weak watered down baseless hit hop. It crossed over & that's where the cash cow was. Why is it that everyone who hears tracks like this ALWAYS say, "yo, this is that real shit" or something of that nature. Its nice to make money as long as you don't have to sell your soul to get it.

yall inferior genus biological set packs the conceited fly away on pedagogical jet packs this is the alaphabits of life and theres a messgae in my bowl try to tell the world but theres a motion censor on my soul i deceive cuz the end of the day seems so far away yea, the end of the day seems so far away theres pain but we look and then forget and laugh it off like a cop comediy where theres a rookie and vet we all do, in fact, we all you you all us chained to ignorance in what you call cuffs
ima good story over drinks, i make ya think of new perspectives to make ya problems shrink i don't need sand in my toes only a hand that'll close around mine its about time, im yesterday's water from ya sink cause im feelin drained still insane but with a new justification I let the happiness stand alone with nothin adjacent no longer stuck in daze, now i fuck with amazement
I still have the Hiatus CD right muthafuckin here! Diamond D is one of my all time favorite producer/MC's! P.S. No it's not Pete Rock on Production it's Diamond D!
Yo Him527, I would be honored if u sent me a mp3 of this. So many things i wanna do to this instrumental. Hit me up, I'll even send you some instrumentals i sampled From People under the Stairs
triga nomic flo das purely organic raw styles all added,
easy on ya dome like da walls have been padded, all freestyle is da method to my madness, wit ledendary da skill of da great diamond D, switch da flo to chill mode to keep in line wit me, ryhme is pure poetry, mos def cats know my raps reflect the flo in me, so sit back and let dis ill track be...
We listen to the greatest and the fakest/ and niggas cant differentiate this:/ back to BEATSTREET to styles so UNIQUE/ it remained sleek/ not the current yip yap/ but what was really hip hop/ take the elements and parlilments/ and light the incense/ and roll the buddah/ aint nothin to sweeta/ till you need to take a breatha/ and let your mind elevate/ to the place where problems evaporate/ to bad we cant all share the same mind state...

will i ever expierence serenity especially wen the enemy constantly keeps pressuring me mentally my decisions r made sensibly aviodin traps sent up to eventually exterminate me cuz i wasnt ment to b battles rent won with brute physicality but rather wit endurance so i hold faith cuz wit Him i have a better sense of assurance
big l zion i- i used to get high & try to rhymes on beats
unaware of when it was time to leave
to a sweet summer sound
tracks crackin concrete like the beats underground
or at least if u can achieve peace,reach some sorta piece of the pie in the sky to keep,
but This One by double d made the struggle trouble free, on the quest to create, so, just sit back, reflect on each step in your pace & take a breath to relate a breath to relate

dam why cant hip hop now a days sound just like this! i stop listening 2 power 106 long time ago! bring back the real shit power 106 you guys suck over there!!!
even though i smoke weed and stay in the street, theres a stray peice of me thats so sweet, in my mind dressed neat, the flow blows the beat, and the slow dont defeat, so you gotta stay quick, ryhmes flow like a chocolate river thats thick, i bust a trick as the beat goes to the tick, and my dick gets a lick, from a girl thats with it, one thats quite fit, and might just fit, by my side, i ride by high, wishin i could fly in the sky.
why ask why shorties wanna live but actions say they wanna die can't let sleepin dogs lie from bed stuy to this nation's midsection people gettin it in wit no protection insert erections raw that's a blunder now we reminiscin on dude six feet under why bother they not listenin the jewels in they mouth glistenin that's the only focus playin hocus pocus with life
When I hear music like this I am reminded of how powerful music is. When it is done with honest emotion and talent like this it truely is a spiritual expirence......Amazing beat, great post!!
the beat unique, transparent to wat im hearing, i like it so, u no how to flow i like this nice beat man!!!! like really it has a soft melody thats so sweet make love lyrics to it and it will go with it!!!
damn....shit i'm happy this is playing right now....thought i would never here this again...been a minute... i use to hate how on the radio back then i would hear this being talked over during like an interview or right before a commercial break...damn i wanted them to just shut up and let the record spin...youtube the google of music.......damn i miss this whole era
