Track 4 off the classic album "Return Of The Boom Bap" by legend KRS-One.

Lyrics:

Adjust that treble right now adjust the bass

Turn it up, stop frontin

C'mon, turn it up

Alright, check it out ninety-three lyrics, here we go

Bo!

I never want a jheri curl up under my hat

The woman in my bed has got to be strictly black

I never want money if my lyrics are wack

So I must, roc, the mic

I play only the reggae and I play only rap

I rock the African, the European, and Jap

Beneath I got to show you that I am all that

So I must, roc, the mic

Are you tired of lyrical liars, passing fliers

Wannabe MC's, but really good triers

Tripping over mic cords, getting you bored

A total fraud, this kind of thing I can't afford, so I

pick up the mic and kill it ill it top bill it

The cough is a skillet, where MC's get fried in it

You got beef chill it, blood I spill it

After seven long years of ripping the party and I'm still widdit

You call my name I don't think about suing ya

I come to the club with that BOOYAKA

Laughing while I'm doin ya the crowd is booin ya

Gimme one month, record for record on tape I'll ruin ya

Some likkle awl pon sound bwoy wan fi rule de city

His style is lookin pretty beats and rhymes are dibby dibby

Here comes the rootical ratical teacha

I'll eat ya defeat ya beat ya till ya stagger and ya teeth chatter

You'll be goin through convulsions as I flash data

Any rapper can be a decapitated rapper now what's the matter

You're full of more junk than a sausage

Let me show you what a real hip-hop artist

*DJ Premier cuts and scratches "My posse from the Bronx is thick!"*

I never want a jheri curl up under my hat

The woman in my bed has got to be strictly black

I never want money if my lyrics are wack

So I must, roc, the mic

I play only the reggae and I play only rap

I rock the African, the European, and Jap

Beneath I got to show you that I am all that

So I must, roc, the mic

Of course yeah I'm the most brilliant recording artist in your life

Never have to repeat a rhyme style twice, precise

In a lyrical drought like water to your lips oh yes my lyrics will suffice

I'm nice, like beans and rice, I am delicious

Who's the freshest lyricist on the mic, you don't want to fuck with Kris is

Lyric for lyric rhyme for rhyme style for style I break you like dishes

Either you come fully correct or the lyrics you simply makin wishes

We got no time for fake black leaders and dreamers blowin wishes

youse a fraud, I mean a fraud like in fraudulation

I know what it is, the crown of rhyme supremacy you're tastin

And yes, before the flavor hits your greedy tongue

You get ripped up by KRS-One

Now, lyrics, somebody want lyrics, from the lyrical terrorist

Here's a little somethin for you all to remember Kris, and remember this

I am no pessimist, more of an optimist

Activist revolutionist, yes the hardest artist

And the smartest, Premier, spark this

*Premier cuts and scratches "My posse from the Bronx is thick!"*

I never want a jheri curl up under my hat

The woman in my bed has got to be strictly black

I never want money if my lyrics are wack

So I must, roc, the mic

I play only the reggae and I play only rap

I rock the African, the European, and Jap

Beneath I got to show you that I am all that

So I must, roc, the mic

"Never have to repeat a rhyme style twice". Take notes , there are good rappers but they use the same style on all tracks. THE GREATEST EMCEE !

i think Evil Dee, Marco Polo, and Buckwild come pretty close. in fact i think Dee freestyle juggles better. Still Premos got the edge

You have to be brain dead, it would only explain your brainless statements. My top 5 is embarrassingly bad? You're a moron, you couldn't come up with a better list if you tried, but judging by your top 5 producers list it would probably have 2 chainz in the top 10.ROFL. Dismiss yourself from this KRS video clown, you're not fooling anyone fraud. No, I don't keep up with those weak ass producers that you idolize especially if Swizz is the "best" in the game which is disgrace in itself.

lmao Marley Marl passed the torch to everyone genius...he passed it to pete rock too because he was pretty much lyk the OG hip-hop producer cuz of the juice crew...lmao rookie? good one smh & he is though...its pretty much a fact just because you dont like him doesnt not make him a legend his clout is tremendous lmao i cant go on tho ur top 5 GOAT rappers is too embarassingly bad...quick question? do u keep up with the new & current producers in the game now? i wanna know your top 5 for that

Swizz is a legend? Damn that's the most fraudulent thing I've read in a while, quit joking yourself fraud. Remove your face from Kanye's balls, that clown's credibility has been slipping away ever since college dropout. Premo always acknowledges that he was given the torch from Marely Marl, which he based his entire framework on rookie ROFL. Your knowledge is embarrassing freshman, stop acting like you know what legendary work actually is.

its not even that though he has extremem amounts of respect from a wide range of artists...cmon even Bono from U2 fucks wit him...and he keeps gettin called the man is a legend if not top 5 hes def top 20...lmao you brought up LES lmao thats the illest blast from the past...even Kanye himself said Swizz is the best alive...and you said Premo got passed the torch from Marley Marl? LMAO Premo was & is YEARS past marley marl ever was thats deserving of a slap..try to find ppl to agree with that

That summer on smash joint on Life is good is straight up garbage. Just proves that even working with Nas, all Swizz could ever hope to produce is mediocre trash rofl. I find it hilarious that you still think he's top 5 material, even inside of top 20 producers is laughable. I'll give him credit for making a hand full of commercial hits, but other than that his catalog is far from impressive in terms of actual GOOD production, no matter who he's worked with.
