Hip-hop/rap lyrics you like

[up_the_hampipe]

Been meaning to do a thread on this for a while. I did a general lyrics threads a while ago and many people started posting whole fucking verses, so don't do that, just a line or two. They don't have to be good lyrics even, just lyrics you enjoy for whatever reason.

I hope no one gets shot in this thread.

[DukeDeMondo]

"Hurry up with my damn croissants!"

It's the "French-ass restaurant" bit before that that makes it, though, I suppose.

I only like that line because I heard a bunch of people threw croissants at him when he said that line at a gig.

Big L - All Black

There are so many amazing line and idea in that track. Allt appeal to my middle-class white boy who never grew up sensibility so this for starter:

"Once a Nigga tried to stick me for 6Gs
So I put more holes in his ass than Swiss-cheese."

"50Gs was what the creep stole
So next day, knocked on his door
shot his granny through the peep hole."

Fuck it. Its here.

Its such an amazing complete package that track. That bass is just something else. And my second favorite snare sound ever after Gary Numan and Cars.

Good thread. Kool Keith alone should keep it going a few pages.

"Jacked her then I asked her 'Who's the man?' She said 'B.I.G.'
Then I bust in her E.Y.E."

Dead Wrong - Notorious B.I.G.

It's unpleasant and offensive but it tickles me.

[Rocket Surgery]

"I'll slice you like a lettuce, toss you like a salad,
Revoke your MC license cos your rhymes are invalid"

                                       - EPMD - 'You're A Customer'

[Bhazor]

Pretty much all of Bug Powder Dust clever braggadocio mixed in with references to Heart of Darkness and My Fair Lady. Couple standouts

Waiting for the sun on a Spanish caravan
solar eclipse and I feel like staring man


Stuck in your ass like a faulty vibrator
Hear me now but you'll probably get the vibe later

And now I've got whole thing stuck in my head. Fuck.

[Rocket Surgery]

More sexist hilarity:

"You should hear how she sounds with a cock in her,
Booty gets knocked from here to Czechoslovakia"

                                 - Ice Cube - 'Givin' Up The Nappy Dug Out'

[up_the_hampipe]

Dead Wrong - Notorious B.I.G.

Just listened to this again and chuckled at "I'm shooting babies, no ifs ands or maybes"

[phantom_power]

Fuck being hard, Postanus is complicated - De La Soul, some song off Bulhoone Mind State

The way I communicate can make a frickin' eunuch mate - Paul Barman

Cause life is fickle, hellish, anemic, sickle cellish
Dude, you'll get chopped up like pickle relish - Paul Barman

My dandy voice makes the most anti-choice Granny's panties moist- Paul Barman

We got Magnum Brown, Shooshki Palooshki
Supercalafragahestikalagoothki
You could put that in your don't know what you said book
Took-look-yuk-duk-wuk - Public Enemy

I'll eat up all your crackers and your licorice
hey yo fat girl, c'mere-are ya ticklish? - Digital Underground

[Urinal Cake]

"I'll slice you like a lettuce, toss you like a salad,
Revoke your MC license cos your rhymes are invalid"

                                       - EPMD - 'You're A Customer'

On a similar food related note:
Askin me to let us (lettuce) catch up (ketchup), knowin you can't cut the mustard
So where's the beef, jerky?
- Common; Orange Pineapple Juice

Also Nas lines like 'Sleep is the cousin of death', '36 in a karate class', 'I rock hoes, you rock fellas' etc

[newbridge]

"I use a word that don't mean nothing, like looptid"

[Noodle Lizard]

"To see me you'll have to raise your game a bit
I'll fuck your mind so much I'll learn which way's its favourite"

By someone who's probably a Verbwhore:

[DangledTeeth]

''You remind me of school on a Sunday - no class!'' - Redman

''let it be known, you're already dethroned. Poetically, my head should be genetically cloned'' - Elzhi

''I'm all that and then some - short, dark and handsome. Bust a nut in your eye to show you where I come from'' - ATCQ (Phife)

''all I've got is bunch of weaponry everywhere. When I was kid I used to machete my teddy bear'' - Crooked I

[Custard]

Moby seems like a pointless and ridiculously easy target, but I never fail to laff at this bit in Without Me, by the Eminem:

A tisk-it a task-it, I'll go tit for tat with anybody who's talking this shit, that shit.
Chris Kirkpatrick you can get your ass kicked
worse than them little Limp Bizkit bastards, and Moby
you can get stomped by Obie, you 36 year old bald headed fag blow me
You don't know me, you're too old, let go it's over, nobody listens to techno

It's the delivery of that last line that makes it

[clingfilm portent]

Nobody listens to techno says a man from Detroit.

[Gulftastic]

'I ain't no G, I'm just a regular failure
I ain't straight outta Compton, I'm straight out the trailer'

Good work, Kid Rock.

[doppelkorn]

There's a million lyrics I could put in here but for some reason the one that sprang to mind first was:

"Cos the streets is a short stop,
Either you're slanging crack rock or you got a wicked jump shot."
Biggie - Thing done changed

And this one from I got it made by Special Ed:

"My name is Special Ed and I'm a super duper star,
Every other month I get a brand new car.
Got twenty that's plenty but I still want more,
Kind fond o' Honda scooters got seventy four."

Rap music is the best music.

[doppelkorn]

"There's a midget in my neighbourhood,
And a one-armed man, and they're both my fan.
They're both Vietnam vets,
They like to call up Asian restaurants and make bomb threats."

Edan - Number one hit record

Also from that song:

"Silver surfer on the cerebellum,
MCs rhyme at the zoo and when they're whack parrots tell'em."

[up_the_hampipe]

I'll always love the harshness of this famous line from Hit Em Up:

"You claim to be a player but I fucked your wife
We bust on Bad Boys, niggas fucked for life"

Poor Biggie. Caught up in a war when he did nothing wrong. Still, it's an incredible vicious diss track and I'll always love it.

[grassbath]

From Aesop Rock's "Daylight":

Yeah, the settlers laugh
You won't be laughing when your covered wagons crash
You won't be laughing when the buzzards drag your brother's flags to rags
You won't be laughing when your front lawn is spangled with epitaphs

Just like the sound of it.

[Morrison Lard]

Kick! Punch! It's all in the mind

[Gamma Ray]

Contemporary:

I was gonna kill a coupla rappers but they did it to themselves, everybody's suicidal they ain't even need my help

Old school:

When it comes to this I been through more shit than a toilet

What the fuck?

Y'all come outside and celebrate the gross animal waste/On Food Day, I watch the bad meat turn gray

[Gamma Ray]

And how could I forget from the same track:

With Dolly Parton music playing in my pick-up truck

[doppelkorn]

"Ayo Doug the lights are green!
Thanks - but anyway..."

Doug E. Fresh - Crazy 'bout cars

[doppelkorn]

"That's what I did, be smart don't be a retard
You gonna take advice from somebody who slapped Dee Barnes?"

That's a ballsy lyric, given the circumstances of the song it's in.

[alan nagsworth]

Watkin Tudor Jones is the one of my all-time favourite MCs:

But the circuitry was hurting me so I unplugged
Now civilians look at me like screensavers
Hey, yo, why that look of your face, like toilet paper
Little semen sprayers wanna rock with the demon slayer
Stick my finger in my nose, look what I got
Thick black sticky sticky bad crystallized snot

*

You can't handle this
I'm nice like my mom's sandwiches

*

If you're young dumb and full of cum, they can come and get some
If you're over twenty one, keep yourself in check, son

*

Rappers are stupid, very fucking stupid
Not quite as stupid as me, I'm the new kid
Walking down the block, in my kak flip-flops
Pajama pants, my t-shirt says "fuck hip hop"

[up_the_hampipe]

"That's what I did, be smart don't be a retard
You gonna take advice from somebody who slapped Dee Barnes?"

That's a ballsy lyric, given the circumstances of the song it's in.

I love Guilty Conscience.

Dre: what if there's an explanation for this shit?
Shady: what, she tripped fell landed on his dick?

[dandoystevski]
