Krs One - Rap History lyrics

rate me

We got to understand rap been here for a long time~!

When God talked to the prophets, he was rappin

And when the prophets talked back to God, they was rappin

And then if people wanna bring it up and get all up to the modern days and ages

We can start to goin in the 60's when you had Shirley Ellis

When she did "The Name Game" and "The Clapping Song"

We can go to the poetry rappin of of sister Son... Sonia Sanchez

With uh The Watts Poets, or The Last Poets

We can get into the political or the message rap

Of The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, Malcolm X

Or The Honorable Elijah Muhammad

We can get into the the the the party and fun raps

Of Pigby Markam

We can go back to the "Hi De Hi De Ho" with Cab Calloway

We can go back to the radio disc jockey or jocko

Eddie OJ, and all the others that did things

We can go back to the LOVE RAP of Isaac Hayes, Black Moses

To the LOVE RAP of Barry White out there

This is all part of rap

And if all you country people want to get into the country & western thing

We can take it to, Tony Joe White, when he did "Poke Salad Annie"

This is all dealin with the rap

Rap has always been there...
