I'm still on top of the game Still droppin flames, still cock and aim Still at the top had the Roc for the fame over setbacks, there's been a lot since I came You seen it all, how I got, how I gained The momentum when it dropped, how I got through the pain When I roll and shock, they watched me reclaim the streets, they made a special spot for my name Dre, haters wanna stop to my reign But the music lives in me, every drop in my veins The pride and the pain All the way back from the rise of my name See the world clear through the eyes of the mane See the world chear for the rhymes that I gave When the beat bangs it'll drive them insane The eyes that I played The best to emerge in the game is The Watcher
Definitely wasn't a freestyle, and I doubt he wrote it himself to be honest. I think he's 14? He's Reverend Run's son BTW (if you didn't know). He's hip-hop royalty, but he's got skills and I don't doubt he'll be the next big thing (in the teen market). Atlantic Records signed him a couple of days ago BTW... http://www.birthplacemag.com/2010/03/diggy-simmons-signs-with-atlantic-records/
Raekwon lucked out with the 3 or 4 Dre-produced tracks on that album, which is a classic in my opinion. Soundtrack to my summer last year.
He may have not written it, but I wouldn't be surprised if he did. He honestly could be the breathe of fresh air commercial hip hop needs to bring it back to life.

MF DOOM???? Didn't see that one coming. Wish I could watch Youtube here at work. I picked up the Redman & Methodman - Blackout 2 album the other day. Terrible. It is completely over-produced. They sound just like everyone else now.
agreed. weak album. PM me if your down for some more info on new music. you like doom? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7bDYyP5EAY (for after work) Image Unavailable, Please Login
I bought the Operation: Doomsday album back in the day. I think I listened to it a few times and then put it away somewhere. I haven't heard the name since then. I will have to check out some of his newer stuff later. Yeah let me know what else is good out there. I had quite a music budget in high school and college. Not so much anymore. And unlike the point of this thread, for the most part I can't stand the overproduced club songs..
my god, i agree the most of this **** is not even hip-hop. funny its called a hip-hop thread. sick how you bought doomsday way back. DOOM is the man. check your PMs.
lets keep the real hip-hop movin... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-WdRSfC0kU Guru (verse 1) Stupid, you know it's time to sit and think, before we hit the brink Lockerroom, at a prize fight, before he hit the ring Like when I tell these corporate leeches they can't get a thing Or when I tell relentless rappers they had better sing The position that anyone holds could be up to grabs I'm waitin up the ave to see if anyone folds Since I was twenty-one years old and legal I knew the difference between gimmicky gangsters and powerful people I'm the reason, why the game is flipped I'm the reason, why your aim is missed I'm the reason why you're mad I only sprained my wrist The reason my mindframe is trained in this You like gunfire? Better acquire the taste Cuz youf walk aroun' with full pounds by dem waist Deface property, they be laced properly Rules are rules, fools are fools, I react logically Ain't no way, so come, make my day Like Tom Hanks I earn long bank and +Cast+ you +Away+ Image Unavailable, Please Login
