letra de the home of hip hop - d.st.

this is a revolution sure shot

[d.st.]
can you remember the days when kool herc played
with the following of bands?
cause if you don’t, well then you won’t (that’s right)
real hip hop my man
the bronx, new york was the place and home-
base where herc’s tables spun
yes, there were dj’s in all the other boros
but like herc there were none

you see, the bronx is the home of hip hop
we don’t care what anybody says
it’s been avoided and exploited
but it will never be taken away
from the bronx, the home of hip hop
you don’t have to believe it’s true
and if you don’t agree, don’t listen to me
just look what it’s done to you
now dance! sucker!

the bronx, the home of hip hop
and yes y’all
the bronx, the home of hip hop
and you say
the bronx, the home of hip hop
that’s right
real hip hop my man

[infinity]
dj
master of the mix
creates an illusion
with hip hop tricks
with the know how
to be unique
searching for records with bongo beats
stacking up speakers
in the park
settin’ up the system
before it gets dark
dj’s
just payin’ their dues
made hip hop flyers to spread the news
that we rock in the park
when the sun shines
then rocked indoors
in the wintertime
lee’s
corterfield’s
and sneakers
shades on our head
so we could spot freakers
hip hop
from the bronx new york
where we say “yes y’all” before we talk
at one time
other boros
were not even rockin’
the bronx was the known spot for hip hoppin’
all other towns
came from miles around
just to see the boogie down bronx throw down
by the bus, the train, and o.j
it was a must to see the dj’s play

(scratching)

that’s right
real hip hop my man

[d.st.]
now as time went by there was no reason why
for hip hop not to elevate
then a great puzzle was solved
when the poets revolved
and we began to innovate
rap, the key word (that’s right!) you heard
originally spoagraphics
rappers rappin’ to the funky fresh beat
using hip hop tactics (like)
“do it to the left”, “do it to the right”
and “if it feels funky then do it all night”
rappers rappin’ with the greatest of ease
to entertain the guys and the ladies
staying up late at night to write rhymes
contemplating on rocking the next time
thinking of gimmicks day after day
to make the crowd do anything they say
somebody say “ho!” (“ho!”)
say “oh yeah!” (“oh yeah!”)

listen, the bronx is the home of hip hop
we don’t care what anybody says
it’s been avoided and exploited
but it will never be taken away
from the bronx, the home of hip hop
you don’t have to believe it’s true
and if you don’t agree, don’t listen to me
just look what it’s done to you
now dance!
sucker!

the bronx, the home of hip hop
and yes y’all
the bronx, the home of hip hop
and you say
the bronx, the home of hip hop
that’s right
real hip hop my man

what we gonna do right here is go back
way back, back into time
where the only people that existed was
b-boys
and b-girls

yes yes y’all, to the beat ya’ll
let’s rock y’all and don’t stop
keep on an’ rock the house
keep, keep on, an’ rock the house
to the beat y’all, rock, rock ya’ll
an’ let’s rock y’all and don’t stop
young ladies, rock the house
to the young ladies, rock the house

the home of hip hop
and yes ya’ll
and you say
one time
for my mellow
kool herc
and the herculoids

[d.st.]
just think, 1975
one whole decade has gone by
of talented people performing for fun
to b-beat music is how it begun
from the start it’s been an art
of heart throb music that played a part
in this modern day and fast paced style
that all the people think is somewhat wild
but the average listener will never know
modern music changes the status-quo
and like there was a spot for pop and rock
there’ll always be a spot for hip hop
people despise it like it’s terror
today and tomorrow is the hip hop era
new jack’s trying to monopolize
deceiving the public’s eyes with lies
about they’re the ones who started the show
ask them about the old school they don’t know
big shots claim they’re the founders of this
promoting our talent in their business
since we’re really not in their interest
they’re the one who’s getting rich
from something we’ve done for our enjoyment
corrupted into petty cash for employment
once again trying to take what’s ours
but not pushing us as far to sit amongst stars
that’s alright, there’s no sorrow
cause i know and you know there’s still tomorrow
and like infinity it goes on
cause the bronx is the place hip hop was born

the bronx is the home of hip hop
we don’t care what anybody says
it’s been avoided and exploited
but it will never be taken away
from the bronx, the home of hip hop
you don’t have to believe it’s true
and if you don’t agree, don’t listen to me
just look what it’s done to you
now dance!
sucker!

the bronx, the home of hip hop
and yes y’all
the bronx, the home of hip hop
and you say
the bronx, the home of hip hop
that’s right
real hip hop my man
