DJ JS-1 - Turn The Tables lyrics
rate meFt. O.C.
(Intro)
Uh, new LP, JS-1
It is what it isn't
Turn the tables! Turn the tables on em Jay
(Verse)
It's left up to the dj if anything he play on the wheels is ill, no replay
These days, how I regards to them techniques spinnin'
Pioneers ova the years rarely mentioned
Let a flare go, let em know who's in the buildin'
Dj's are the original builders
Before Soundscan or BDS exist (where em park jam dudes? where em old sound men?)
Important set of vinyl, cuttin' a scratch
You write it exact, maybe a skip, spin it back
The purpose of the slip match under the wax
Defies the Glock for LP's been doin' the scratch
Pitch control, sped up or slowed down
Tonight's Dj wid it, manipulate the sound
Chirpin' with his fingers like birds really early in the mornin'
(Hook)
Turn the tables, don't be merciful like Joe Fader
We're flippin' the crossfader
Shout outs to Jay M. Jay and Rob Raider
And all the grand masters
(How it all got started, way back when)
I'm like tellin' ya straight on up
(How it all got started, way back when)
I'm like tellin' ya straight on up
(Interlude)
[...]
We're goin' way back, the way it used to be
Or may I say the way it should be?
(Verse 2)
Anybody with a brain could work Serato
Test the skill of a true DJ is in a battle
For example: DJ Aladdin and Rob Swift
Mix Master Ice or DJ Jazzy Jeff
Q with the Cash Money, or Dj Scratch
Dj Cheese or Cut Master Swift
Can't forget Tab Money
Rob Raider, doin' his thang in the flesh
In B-street beckons
Rockin' solos with the best of the best
when Gemini products on display invest
Jeff show Dj's the transform over 33 and a third
The history's long
Grand wizard dead, dawg, invented the scratch up top
And the X while doin' sets
45s in this day? If you own a Gemini 2200, that's rare
Raymix'll be the new elixir
Make sure your arms balance right when
Much love for Cool Herb, cuz if he wasn't born
Hip-Hop wouldn't exist at all
(Hook)
Turn the tables, don't be merciful like Joe Fader
We're flippin' the crossfader
Shout outs to Jay M. Jay and Rob Raider
And all the grand masters
(How it all got started, way back when)
I'm like tellin' ya straight on up
(How it all got started, way back when)
I'm like tellin' ya straight on up
(Interlude)
[...]
You know what? Because this is as high as you'll ever be
(Verse 3)
Aye, yo, I wanna give a shout out to all the Djs around the world
