Edan - Fumbling Over Words That Rhyme lyrics

[Hook] Fumbling over words that rhyme [x4] Pure rap music ain't made under pressure Expose a j**el, teach school at my leisure Fumble over words that rhyme with a verse divine I backtrack and think of the greatest of all-times Cla** is in session, master this lesson Teacher was a student, studied like a Buddhist Reviewing all the best to do it So let's do this ("Do it") Nothing to it Considered the first emcee to blow the spot And do work was Coke La Rock spitting for Kool Herc Following the influence of Herculoid parties Brothers like Cowboy made you move your body Cowboy would toast for the GM Flash And the sk**s elevated as crews started to clash Flash and Bam, they both saw clientele So Flash formed the Four with the father Melle Mel Four became Five, more became live Routines over breaks, true kings motivate Out the L brothers came the Five Fantastic With Theodore they battled with the Cold Crush Four Few had the confidence of GMC Without the CCB's there'd be no Run-DMC The Funky and the Fearless Four, Force MC's, the suave Spoonie G And I can't forget the Treacherous Three MC's [Hook] Praise to the Kool Moe Dee, he elevated And changed it with records like the New Rap Language Before the first full length LPs There was abstract brothers like the one Rammellzee Run-DMC broke through in '83 outta Queens And started rapping hard over drum machines 808's started shaking up floors ("It's Yours") With T La Rock's complex metaphors ("T-L-A R-O-C-K") A primary influence on LL Cool J T La Rock's futurism must've been respectable Cause Tragedy from Queens was young but very technical Shan was eloquent, Kris was intelligent The 'R' was all of the above with added elements Slick Rick the Ruler was a screenplay producer Ultramagnetic had the vision for the future Big Daddy Kane getting raw at The Apollo and Kool G Rap was probably the sickest of all of them Jaz from the BK, Percee and Finesse from the BX Prince Po and Pharoahe came next Wu with the G-Z-A, G-F-K N-A-S one of the best out to date Any MC that's adding on to the list Pump your fist, but first give praise to the true scientists [Hook]
