HIP-HOP History (Book 2 of 3): The Incorporation of Hip-Hop: Circa 1990-1999

Lets take it back to the seventiesWhen Rap was born and made emcees.But before they could even bless the MicIt would be the DJ that rocked the nightFrom the Message that rained down from Sugar HillTo the beat from chic that spun the wheelWhen the Godfather & Ms. Summer ruled the dance floorsIt would be a mighty Blow from Harlem to break down the doorsSimilar to the Chuck Taylors that graced the leagueThose fresh adidas name belts cazels & Lees would RUN our emceesPuma windbreakers box tops and boom boxesBroke windmills head spins and pop lockersPaper Thin emcees got ripped like nickel bagsLooking up into the Lyte defeated; Cramming to UnderstandB-Boys gathered for blocks & blocksBreakdancin and freestylin as My Radio jammed the boom boxToo many got laid down in the WestToo many hot bullets pierced too many black heartsYet one bold young brother kept on screaminLife is Too Short!The Government C. Delores Tucker the President and Bob DoleSet out to censor the rap game & claim their own fame.But they got the Gas FaceFools this is Our Thing!-ANTWAN ANT BANK$
