...never gotta piece of fan art 
white people be safe against cancer and tan smart 

i'm here to help unlike ya predecessors did us darkies 
it's cool, just a splash of crimson on a bigger art piece 

a little scarlet courtesy of the patriarchy 
they brainwashing the kids don't let em play with barbies 

mannn when they start sellin' parfait at arby's? 
i bet it's made from the barf from eating them burgers 

i broke the rhyme scheme to talk about disgusting food 
been double-crossed too much to truly be a trusting dude 

mostly i miss out on the topics of them hot discussions 
i'm not the best at following pizza-box instructions 

never owned a car with the trunk in the front 
but more than once i did succumb and be drunk 

definitely been too encumbered to duck 
even the most sluggish of punch but luckily 
chumps neva wan romp wit me, whaaaaat 


i'm seeing coffee beans in my dreams 
caffeinated cartoony things with goofy wings 

and bluish strings 
i should switch to tea like a 
crucified jewish king 
oh, tea got caffeine too? 

it went to OT but now the score like 3-2 
us you 
"big ups dude, we all know you rock it well" 


i feel like pachabel 
working at a taco bell 
living off redbull and pasta shells 

but you 
you're too mean kid, too heavy handed bruh 
shouts out to #coownaz, catch you in bevlandia 

i got sodas, sobes, calypsos 
and shit luck, soon as i get my stroke, my hip goes 

ain't gotta crowd like the baauers and the diplos 
but i got head in the shower in a pimped pose 

used to try to sneak through the dark but when i tip-toed 
either the floor would creak or i'd kick some painful shit DOH 

then homer simpson whole affair 
judge throw the book at me, i throw a chair 
like "what the fuck you say, homie, i'm going where?" 

another booty ghost, jumpsuits and nutraloaf 
yall sucralose, my calls' super close

De La Soul is Dead

Intro

Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth - Mecca & The Soul Brother

Squirrel Tape Instrumentals, Vol. 3

Takeover

HELL.USA.NATION - These Days (199x)

Since the Day-Spice-1 feat CL Smooth & Mike Epps Dj Premier

Known for rockin’ over instrumentals from the likes of Marco Polo and The Alchemist, Saga continues that trend of linking with top-notch producers on the Ayatollah-produced, “If We.”

The Queens beatsmith delivers a sample-heavy slapper that makes for the perfect backdrop for his Brooklyn brethren to flex his rapping chops. And as much as he could have easily kept this as a no-hook, straight-rhyming affair, Saga executes a replay friendly chorus laced with wisdom, particularly on lines like, “If we... started realizing being broke doesn’t mean you’re poor.” 

That same sentiment rings true with his verses. While his first two are certainly strong, Saga goes off on the third verse by showcasing exceptional alliteration and internal rhymes that’ll leave your head spinning. It's the type of track that’ll please any NY rap aficionado and impress anyone with even an inkling of an interest in Hip-Hop.

“If We” is now available for stream, and serves as a teaser of sorts for his three week European tour that begins towards the end of March, during which he’ll be opening for Asher Roth.

Big O - Shmoov Wit Da Ruffness

Download: https://www.mediafire.com/file/czmt9ft9ed11wps/No_Gimmicks_Y2K_edit.zip

None stop mix of a selection of my favorite independent hip-hop cuts from- and around year 2000. This was the tail end of the golden era when indie hip-hop vinyl still sold decent volumes. 
The West Coast was just a strong as the East Coast in terms of output of underground hits.  
Releases from labels like ABB Records where more or less a default buy. 
DJ Revolution’s “In 12’s We Trust” LP is fantastic all way through and so is Cali Agent’s first LP, Laid In Full Chapter 2, Mykill Miers, Encore, Scum and so on…
