@westside59 I'm feeling you, I know you gettin down like that, but what I'm sayin yo let me hold a lil suttin black, I'll hit you back. Cmon dead that, that's the tenth time I heard that. All you know is "Gimme" - I work hard for every penny that I make; video and tape, LP and CD. If I fall, you feeding me? No dough to spread. Always keep a level head, long as my seeds get fed, it won't go to my head.
People always askin me how im giving back ,well the way im giving back its through the knowledge of my raps , like a gem for all my people caught out on a lem , who be giving in
@154bernieblack This is because this generation of "hip-hop" heads have no concept of real music, soul, Africa, African roots, & its connection to our music, especially Hip-Hop!
@konatown5 what kind of name is konatown anyway? You're probably some 20 something year old that dropped out of high school and still has mommy bring you your snacks when you have your drop out douchebag friends over. Eat A Dick Homo-made Bitch!
"THE WAY I GIVE BACK IS THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE OF MY RAPS" if that isn't real shit for ya....I love this track it's a reminder to always be humble and stay grounded..people sometimes let the music game change their true persona and start acting cocky...never bite the hand the feeds you!
MAN WHAT REAL HIP HOP WAS AND IS SUPPOSED TO BE!!! you got these fakes today that need to learn from this!!!! and these young kids need to learn that is real hip hop not soljah boy!!!
this song is a prime example of what's missin now a days we get some hits but nobody is making classics anymore.. I guess they let the fame and fortune go to their heads..lol.. Well can't say that they were not warned.. OL SKOOL HIP HOP & R & B WILL ALWAYS LIVE ON... THANKS TO ALL THE ARTISTS WHO MADE THAT POSSIBLE..
i must admit it i loved this song every since i 1st heard it and of course i've been a brand nubian fan since way back in the day when Grand puba was telling us what goes around comes back around again.. to that's how we move it remix timeless classics never die
No, no, green peace... that's ok! Nothing's wrong with a 'lil dehumanizing comedy.... When I said I didn't know what the words meant back then, I meant that they didn't have any true emotional relevance to my well-being. I usually only listened to music for it's melodies (art), not necessarily for their words (political meanings). I believe if many of us revisited the music from our childhoods, we would see the differences in how the music "emotionally resonated" within us. Thanks 4 askin'...
I found the sample Jean Carne's Don't Let It Go to Your Head on vinyl completely by chance at a garage sale for like 10 cents once. Gave it to my ex-husband as a gift (he's a crate-digger). Cause that's the type of nice girl I am :)
this is some true stuff

According to your profile, you were 14 years old in 1998 and you're American. Were you by any chance a little slow as a child?
Don't get offended, only messing around.

No, no, green peace... that's ok! Nothing's wrong with a 'lil dehumanizing comedy.... When I said I didn't know what the words meant back then, I meant that they didn't have any true emotional relevance to my well-being.

themuthasback 2 years ago
Well, it's true what you say. The music I listened to as a child had nothing to do with the words.
If children listen to music for the meaning in the lyrics, they're sick or something..
But this song really is great. When I get stressed out, I can turn this on and before I know, I have forgot all troubles and sit stomping my foot.
