I think what the ESSENCE of what hip hop is about; I mean, I think what you people can attest to it.
You people that are here; its not about money and cars and diamonds and you know; and given the negative images to our kids and makin them believe that, they have to walk around with a gun and shoot it. Just to feel validated you know what I mean?
And they have to strive to be drug dealers you know what I mean?
That’s not what it is.That’s not what it is.
So if you do anything, remember that;
Hip-Hop is just not about the music, you know what I mean?
It's about a way of life and our whole culture
and it didn't start with the Sugar Hill Gang
and as much as I love Jam Master J, it didn't start with Run DMC"
Before rap was a game
Before Hip Hop was a Nation
Before Lauren Hill began our miss-education
Before milk was chillin
or PE brought the NOISE
Before Heavy D and the Boyz
Before the Roof caught on Fire
Before "FRESH" was the "Word"
Before Houdini and Friends and Roxane's Revenge
Before the freaks came out at night
Before “Say HO!!"
Before the CRASH CREW was rockin on the radios!
Before Whitney, Mariah, and Brandi and Janet
Before BAM and
The Soul Sonic Force rocked the planet!
Before we were the breaks and before hard times
Before the GANG, King Tim and
Before Super Rhymes
Before Reganomics
Before rappers got shot in their stomachs
Before you found hip-hop in comics
Before "G's"
Before Weed was "Trees"
Before goin "Road Dog" gave you a deadly disease
Before "Haterz"
Before Thugs and Perpetrators
Before the Alphas and before the Betas
Before Beepers, Cell Phones , Retro Gods,
Fed-X, Food Stamps
And Metro Cars
Before Gats or cops was 5O
and before Gats was answers and
Before the B-Boys turned into Break Dancers
Before Legs was “Crazy”
Before Alternative Swayze
Back when my man L said "It's hot and it’s humid and its hazy"
Before Trends and Tattoos
By no means get this twisted,
My name is HIP-HOP AND I'VE ALWAYS EXISTED
In this physical form
Or in the essence of rhyme
Grand Master Kaz baby, greatest of all time…
