"What's Hip Hop?" - Written By J-o-e

What’s Hip Hop This

What’s Hip Hop That

U Hip Hop? U Feeling This

What’s A Hip Hop Track?

Maybe it’s our fault, being stranded on welfare

Now let me ask Mr. Bush if he really does care

In the music industry, it’s different from streets

Here u eating lavishly, streets u can’t eat

It’s a terrible thing to see, no silver spoon

Giving the poor no money, Ur a Looney Toon

Walk down my street, u can see drug bags

Fiends take they last drags, loading up mags

Running from the police, gun to the brain

Going insane that rappers can expect fame

So tell me ya’ll really know what hip hop is

Because behind the microphone I’m a whiz

Spit some real slick ****, if I can go on bail

Or please no Mr. Officer, don’t send me to jail

I’ve had enough, this is because of hip hop

Asked the lord when does the brutality stop

But that’s how he rolled, getting locked up

He a snitch, so that’s why he got socked up

There’s no other reason for killing another

Just think of Ur mothers tears for killing a brother…

What’s Hip Hop This

What’s Hip Hop That

U Hip Hop? U Feeling This

What’s A Hip Hop Track?

Most people don’t know about the killing

Pretty much the wrong turn for drug dealing

This time it’s a little kid, getting shot up

Can’t anyone see, that he was caught up

Held his nine, clutched it, it’s his life or mine

14 years old, in the life a ghetto kid of crime

So this is hip hop, so why can’t u stop

To stop all this bull****, I’ll have an album flop

Some say that hip hop was about old school

Some say that it’s about killing some fools

I’m not like any of them, about the street

I just like to go home, rest my tired feet

Debating for decades, the true meaning

It’s just like, picking up dry cleaning

It’s life all around us, finally found us

But the police just want to hound us

For centuries human’s have adapted

Just look for a second at the rap I crafted

It’s not easy being an dope MC can U see

That I rap because it’s a way to feel free…

What’s Hip Hop This

What’s Hip Hop That

U Hip Hop? U Feeling This

What’s A Hip Hop Track?

So what ya'll think, any part that needs improving please tell me :bowdown:

bigmac u shouldnt give ppl tht many thumbdowns 2 a fellow fan thats at least TRYING,... without even tellin them why u gave a poor critique... that was rude man...

JOE,... I dont think it was all that bad, its basically gonna be all about your flow and the music u put 2getha...it can work as it is, im sure, but once u get the rhythm 2getha, (if u haven't already) thats gonna be where ppl can feel it...if that made any sense...

peace,
