Public Enemy - Night of the Living Baseheads

Old school hip-hop

Lyrics:

Here it is
BAMMM
And you say Goddamn
This is the dope jam
But lets define the term called dope
And you think it mean funky now no
Here is a true tale
Of the ones that deal
Are the ones that fail
Yeah
You can move if you wanna move
What it prove
It's here like the groove
The problem is this we gotta' fix it
Check out the justice and how they run it
Sellin', smellin'
Sniffin', riffin'
And brothers try to get swift an'
Sell to their own, rob a home
While some shrivel to bone
Like comatose walkin' around
Please don't confuse this with the sound
I'm talking about...BASS

I put this together to...
Rock the bells of those that
Boost the dose
Of lack a lack
And those that sell to Black
Shame on a brother when he dealin'
The same block where my 98 be wheelin'
And everybody know
Another kilo
From a corner from a brother to keep another -
Below
Stop illin' and killin'
Stop grillin'
Yo, black, yo (we are willin')
4, 5 o'clock in the mornin'
Wait a minute y'all
The fiends are fiendin'
Day to day they say no other way
This stuff...
Is really bad
I'm talkin' 'bout...BASS

Yo, listen
I see it on their faces
(First come first serve basis)
Standin' in line
Checkin' the time
Homeboys playin' the curb
The same ones that used to do herb
Now they're gone
Passin' it on
Poison attack - the Black word bond
Daddy-O
Once said to me
He knew a brother who stayed all day in his jeep
And at night he went to sleep
And in the mornin' all he had was
The sneakers on his feet
The culprit used to jam and rock the mike, yo
He stripped the jeep to fill his pipe
And wander around to find a place
Where they rocked to a different kind of...BASS

@harryfromwork dont matter..... rather listen to some Eric B/Rakim anyway.......now thats some shit that never gets old..... THE R......

[otakunik1]

@harryfromwork ya u kinda right about that...License ti Ill is not the album i like to rock its just not the same after all these years aside from Posse in Effect its hard to listen to now

[harryfromwork]

@maxam00 only a hair? Come on...seriously? I used to love Beasties and PE and many others....but listening to Lincensed to Ill now really takes a lot of patience, you need to be in the mood. Not with PE, they put you in a mood. Licensed to Ill was a landmark album, but it don't stand up....it's tedious listening to those whiny voices 20 years later.

Great lyrics: "I'm talking about...BASS". No, he's talking about BASE as in freebase. Nt though...

Chuck D [1986] ; the most distinctive vocals in the HipHop industry

[maxam00]

Greatest Rap Album of all time. A hair better than Licensed to ill by the Beasties.
