Classic Hip-Hop Lines

[emeralds4kh]

Take 7 emcees, put 'em in a line,
add seven more brothas who think they can rhyme,
it'll take seven more b4 I go for mine,
now that's 21 emcees ate up at the same time!!!!!

"My Melody"

WHAT!!!! RAKIM --greatest lyricist of all time!!!!!!

" You wouldn't understand it if you stood under it"
~ Andre Benjamin

Come on... you can't get no better than that.

[tld221]

maybe not that old school, but heres my .02:


"yippie-i-o yippie-i-a, wanna bump ya body baby, wanna bump ya body, wanna bump ya body baby..."

"i love your smile..."

"my love, do u ever dream of, candy coated raindrops...youre the same, my candy rain..." (im really not sure on that last one)

"its like this and like that and like this and uh..."

"i wanna dance with somebody, i wanna feel the heat with somebody, with somebody to love me..."

"you treat me right, i treat you good, you treat me riiight! (listening to too much 98.7 kiss fm with the old heads)

"straight up, now tell me if you gonna love me forever (oh oh oh!)" --> is it me or did every little girl who took dance lessons do a dance to that some circa 1990-91?

old school r&b yall:
1. "whats wrong, wrong with you...why dont you tell me what you gonna do?"
2. "seven whole days, and not a word from you..."
3. "if I tell you, if I tell you how i feel...will you keep bringing out the best in me... you give me, you give me the sweetest taboo"
4. (throw in your own luther line here...i aint gon touch that!)

if you my age and holdin down the east coast, i hope you can finish this one:

"b-i-g's making ya scream...b****es always say what the hell does that mean..."

Ugh, now I have Eminem's supid song in my head.

Take (#) kids from high school, stand em in a line

[emeralds4kh]

I hadn't heard that Eminem line -- but you know he straight copped that from Rakim!!!

[HederaNaturale]

I don't think anyone's mentioned these...

"Check it out.." (Where the ladies at)

"Now why you wanna go and do that love, huh?"

"Tellin me 'bout next man, but next man aint the n*gga with the plan"

"I really know how it feels to be stressed out, stressed out"

"Mirror, mirror on the wall. Tell me mirror what is wrong? Can in it be my de-la clothes or is it just my de la soul?

"Dicka-da dicka-da dicka dicka-da-da You know i'll tell you the rest when I see you."

"She got you whipped, got your kids
Got your home, but that's not your chick!" (that whole song is classic)

"Man, I smashed it like an Idaho potato"

"Humback, humback hoochie mama"

"Put it in ya mouuuuuuuth!"

"Brothers try to pass me, but none could match me No girl can freak me, I'm just too nasty"

"Now dis is di original siddown pon it blahblahblah Come wid it!"
(lol, y'all don't know about that one!)

[AngelicWings21]

How about these from the SERIOUSLY old school ...


"I don't play around, nor do I eff around -- and you can tell by the bodies that are left around,
When some clown jumps up to get beat down -- broken down to his very last compound ..."


Here's one more ...

"Back in the 60's our brothers & sisters were hanged -- how can you gang bang?
I never ever ran from the Ku Klux Klan and I shouldn't have to run from a Black man ..."


And one of my all-time favorites ...

"Never badder than bad, cause a Brother is madder than mad at the fact it's corrupt like a senator.
Soul on a roll but you treat it like soap on a rope, cause the beats and the rhymes are so dope!

... anyone know who these are?

The song is "Self-Destruction" and I believe that it's Chuck D's verse.

... actually, it's Kool Moe Dee's verse from Self Destruction.

[MaMaBuddha]

A real gold winner just like Bruce Jenner
Lay the b*tch on the bed and then you run right in her
Puba makes no mistakes
She said "Rock me tonight (for old time's sake)"
Picture that
(Slow Down)
You little hooker...


-----
Kids in the crib want dibs on the big man
"Can he come out? Can he come out and slam a jam?
"I'm his number one fan, yes I am"
All these kids realize that I'm the man
Six foot three and maybe a quarter of an inch bigger
Than last year, but still a unique figure

------
I woke up around ten o' clock in the mornin'
I gave myself a stretch up, a mornin' yawnin'
Went to the bathroom to wash up
Had some soap on my face and my hand up on a cup
I said, um, mirror mirror on the wall

Thanks. I didn't think I was right but was too lazy to search on it.
