Freestyle Friday - I Ain't No Joke





I Ain't No Joke

by Eric B & Rakim


verse 2...

I got a question, as serious as cancer
Who can keep the average dancer
Hyper as a heart attack nobody smiling
Cuz you're expressing the rhyme that I'm styling
This is what we all sit down to write
You can't make it so you take it home, break it and bite
Use pieces and bits of all the hip-hop hits
Get the style down pat then it's time to switch
Put my tape on pause and add some more to yours
Then you fake it you're ready for the neighborhood chores
The E-M-C-E-E don't even try to be
When you come up to speak, don't even lie to me
You like to exaggerate, dream and imaginate
Then change the rhyme around, that can aggravate me
So when you see me come up, freeze
Or you'll be one of those 7 MC's
They think that I'm a new jack but only if they knew that
They who think wrong are they who can't do that
Style that I'm doing, they might ruin
Patterns and paragraphs based on you and
Your offbeat DJ, if anything he play
Sound familiar, I'll wait til E say
Play 'em, so I'ma have to diss and bro
You could get a smack for this, I ain't no joke


you can listen to this song is in its entirety here...

off tha dome (hip hop edition)





off tha dome (random thoughts...the hip hop edition)

lyrics matter...always have...always will

PSA...never argue with people online about hip hop. save your breath

I've noticed how almost everybody refers to albums as "projects" instead of "albums". that sounds weird to me. maybe it's semantics...but an album ain't a project. projects...much like that science project that you did in the 8th grade..is something that you focus on for a brief period of time, then you move on. albums should stay with you for a long time. but hey...maybe that's just me

i hope Kendrick Lamar wins a lot of grammys but i won't be watching

it's been 30 years since Scott La Rock was murdered and i just found out 2 weeks ago that he was shot and killed by bullets that were meant for D-Nice. i never knew that

much to my surprise...i listened to 17 new hip hop albums this year. i think there was some good music released this year

if you are telling me about why a rapper or a song is good and the FIRST thing that mention is the beat...i'll tune you out

my favorite albums from 2017...


1) Lailah's Wisdom - Rapsody

2) DAMN - Kendrick Lamar

3) 4eva is a Mighty Long Time - Big Krit

4) Big Fish Theory - Vince Staples

5) All Amerikkkan Bada$$ - Joey Bada$$


we were trained to listen to the lyrics. if you listened to your favorite song with no music...how would you enjoy it?

i know who the Migos are. i've heard one song from them...and that's enough for me

thank you, Black Thought







i'm disappointed in Russell Simmons. do i believe his accusers? honestly, yes

i love Tupac buuuuuuut...how is he in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame before LL or Rakim?

i don't think we'll ever get a solo album from Andre 3000 or Black Thought

can Cardi B actually rap?

my favorite DJ...Jazzy Jeff...hands down

i hear that Pete Rock and DJ Premier will help produce the next De La Soul album. that would be dope

have you ever noticed how many times Donald Chump has been referenced in old hip hop songs?

for the record...for the 1st time ever...i didn't like De La Soul's last album

y'all loved Jay Z's 4:44 ; i liked it. that's it

Wu Tang is for the children

i've never seen The Roots perform live. that needs to change

Rapsody is sooooooooooo dope. i love her

Geechie Suade...still a dope hip hop moniker

who knew that Go Stetsta was a "chain snatching anthem" back in the day

if you ask ten people when the Golden Era started and when it ended...you might get 20 different answers

shoutout to Uncle Luke and the 2 Live Crew.

although i've never smoked weed, i get so much enjoyment listening to Redman rap about it

i can't tell you about the hip hop on black radio because i haven't listened in over 10 years

however, i do listen to the legends, Ed Lover and Monie Love, on the Ed Lover Show






where is Jean Grae?

i miss going to the record store

i'll never call Puffy...Diddy. he's Puffy or Puff

remember when New York ran hip hop?

rap videos SHOULD match and enhance the song

remember when LA ran hip hop?

do they still make rap videos?

this may surprise you but i liked the Rick Ross album

i don't dump on this generation's hip hop. i want them to understand the path that their predecessors paved for them. that's all.

don't get it twisted...there are a lot of wack rappers today. and there were a lot of wack rappers in the 80s and 90s. the difference? back then, you were ridiculed and admonished for it. nowadays, wack is accepted and celebrated

there's room for everybody at hip hop's table

thank you to all of those...especially the younger cats...who listen to my podcast and get enjoyment & knowledge from me talking about hip hop. i appreciate it

i'm gonna pass on this new Eminem album

i find it funny that my son, Kameron, is called "Old School" by his fellow 15 year old friends. i wonder why? LOL

my Dad reminded me the other day about he conversations that we had when i was a teen and he said "rap is terrible". years later...have I become like him? lol

This week...we celebrate hip hop week! I figured that we'd get the week started off with talking about slang.

PODCAST: what makes a classic hip hop album



What makes a classic hip hop album? It depends on who you ask. But there are some fundamental truths that you must first acknowledge before you start the discussion. On this podcast, we'll examine these truths. We'll also break down the differences between a modern day hip hop classic album and an all time hip hop classic album. How soon can you determine if an album is a classic?


We'll also explore if some of your favorite albums like My Twisted Dark Fantasy (Kanye West) and To Pimp A Butterfly (Kendrick Lamar) are classic hip hop albums. We will cover how there are some songs on classic hip hop albums that you MAY NOT LIKE. Does the number of guest features and "all star" producers determine whether an album should be deemed a hip hop classic?

All of that and more...

#unansweredhiphopquestions



Editors Note...A few years ago, me and some of my fellow hip hoppers (Rashan Jamal, CRecks, & eclectik) would get together on twitter and comically and randomly discuss some questions from hip hop that were never answered. As I was thinking about how we would go back and forth, I came up with a few of my own...


How did Rampage get picked to rhyme on "Flava In Ya Ear"?

Why hasn't Luke and the 2 Live Crew not gotten a Lifetime Achievement Award?

Why didn't people like the way that Sally walked?

Why was Memphis Bleek and Amil on Rocafella but Sauce Money and Foxy Brown wasn't?

Who allowed Snoop to do a remake of "Vapors"?

Why is Rapper's Delight so long?

Can Andre 3000 be considered on a Top 10 rapper list if he never drops a solo rap album?





Why do some people STILL think that Jay Z won the battle against NaS?

How was TI "crowned" the King of the South? Was there a ceremony?

What is blow tishes? Did LL ever explain that?

Why does the DJ always want to know if Brooklyn is in the house?

What happened to the mixtape "exclusives" that were really exclusives?

Why did we never get Lil Kim and Foxy Brown on multiple songs or a collaborative album?

What happened to the maxi-single?

Would Biggie and Tupac be as revered if they were still alive?






Why didn't A Tribe Called Quest bring back Jarobi for Beats, Rhymes, and Life instead of using Consequence?

How did the guy who admitted that he "don't smoke weed or cess" go on to make an album called The Chronic?

When Suge Knight chastised the label for having the "CEO dancing all in the artists videos"...how do we know not know he wasn't talking about Jermaine Dupri?

How many Roxanne's are there? Do we really know?

If the roof was really on fire, why would we let the mutha#%*~a burn?

Was there a better MTV Cribs edition than Redman's?

Why wasn't Big Daddy Kane actually on the set of the video for "The Symphony"

Why do they still call it a "freestyle"? Very few people actually still freestyle...

Did anybody ever confirm that Ice Cube got a triple double?

PODCAST : not Top 5







When it comes to making a “Top 5 list” for any category, it can be extremely subjective. Quite often, our personal preferences get in the way of us making a sound case for someone/something being worthy of a “Top 5” status. It can be tricky. But Top 5 lists are fun…and if nothing else…good for conversations and debates

On this podcast, I will discuss hip hop and some of its most beloved and respected MCs. However, instead of naming a Top 5 of the greatest MCs, I will examine the MCs who are quite often placed in many people’s Top 5…but I don’t think their lyrical prowess should be considered for the honor. Listen closely. I may drop some names that may surprise you. Am I right? Or am I wrong. Listen and tell me what you think!
