O.K all old school hip hop heads will get this one!




Here we go...Once upon a time,Not long ago,
Where people wore pajamas and lived life slow,
Where laws where stern and justice stood,
And people were behavin' like they ought to - good
,There lived a little boy who was missleadBy another little boy
,And this is what he said:
"Me and you tike, we're gonna make some cash",
"Robbin' old folks and makin' the dash",

Slick Rick I think... he used some of those lines in the Will Smith/Biz Markie/Slick Rick/DJ Jazzy Jeff collab - So Fresh.
 
In fact, that's definitely correct... here's the next quote...

LOST
When you a slave to the biz
Wit no care for the cost of what you sayin to kids
FOUND
Is when ya lyrics are a test of time
And your mom hear that your spirit is blessed divine
LOST
Is when you rhyme til your throat gets sore
But you don’t even believe what you say no more
FOUND
Is when you bleed heart into the mic
And the pain you sustain it can change a life
LOST
Is when you hide behind the freedom of speech
While sure you’re free to do it
But what it mean to do it
Did you mean to do it
Did you need to do it
Did you take time to think about the seeds you ruined
FOUND Is ESCO, dead PREZ and them
FOUND Is Lauren Hill
FOUND Is Rakim
FOUND Can be you
If you felt the message and ask yourself this question


Why should I try to sound like ya’ll sound?
That’s what’s wrong with the rap game right now
Man, it’s like a circus wit a bunch of clowns
Wit a bunch of clicks I’ll probably rap circles around

Will Smith?

Also these lines here "Man, it’s like a circus wit a bunch of clowns
Wit a bunch of clicks I’ll probably rap circles around" I swear I've heard Skills use before. AKA Mad Skills. On a Rukus Record mixtape.


A lot of people have made fun of Will Smith for returning to the game, but he no doubt still can hang with anybody out there!
 
You got that right Ed, Mad Skillz may have used them before but they are both down with each other so it's cool. Skillz is Jazzy Jeff's MC when he's djing around the world... Will's new album is dope, not to be underestimated/slept on...

I gotta check that out! I heard for a long time now that Skills was going to drop an LP on Ruckus, that would be dope! I can't find Mad Skills "From where" anywhere around town. >:(
