He wasn't cursing. It was just a video version. At that time videos were still on TV and certain things were edited in addition to curses such as n-word, and references to guns and drugs. Check out the unedited, I'm sure it's no big deal
@@CliffMarion "Pull out your money, pull out your cut/Pull up a chair - cuz I'm a tear shit up." "I wouldn't have came to say my name and run same weak shit/Putting blurs and slurs and words that just don't fit." It was uncut when it first came out. In the radio version (and the one everyone plays) "Pull up a chair" ends the line with chair echoing and in the other line "shit" was cut down to "sh" with another heavy echo. Yes, I'm old and remember that.
Rakim used language that radio censored from his first single “Eric B Is President”. He rarely did that but over the years he even dropped the “f” word a couple times before going solo. Cursing isn’t just for when you have nothing to say. Sometimes it provides emphasis to a statement which we all do. And yeah, bring the crew back. Ya'll do excellent work. Peace
Dropped a few N-Bombs and it was also silent when he said .45 holders. Gun references and drug talk would get edited out to get the video played on MTV and BET. Master P was not a good rapper, but he did spit real shit. He felt authentic, as did the whole No Limit roster. P wasn’t a great lyricist, but he has great charisma, and he had plenty of good-great talent following his orders.
That's one of many rhymes that he wrote. His use of curse words pales in comparison to the amount of profanity that is used today. He still has something to say.
Glad I kept watching to the end. You almost got comment section dealt with. 😂✌🏾 Rakim always had a song here and there with a curse in it. The thing is he never has to lean on curses to fill a verse. In this song he cursed once and I bet most people wouldn’t even catch it. The rest of the edits were for the n word. Ra is still the God MC today. ✌🏾
Ya mans is slacking with his facts. Ra said what he said on Paid in Full- musta missed it. He’s saying igga with a N by the way. Primo is a goat on the beats. Go ahead compare him to Eric B. It’s ok if you’re out your lane. Please, let your knowledge be born about who is better if the 17th letter is trash
Not everybody got to give up a 💰 for a baddie. Most dudes lack game and patience. And to dude with the jacket, Rakim is saying Nigga like we all do. A if you're sensitive you can take it as a curse word, but your being a distraction from the Bars. Don't place judgement on the one that cemented in the Game. Anything said now for a man that made His bones early and well respected, it's hate. Facts make a argument valid, Fiction and lies àre Hate and Animosity.
KRS ONE DID CURSE EARLY IN HIS CAREER EVEN THE BRIDGE IS OVE HE SAID "ROXXANE IS ONLY GOOD FOR STEADY FUCKING" COMMON CURSED AS WELL EARLY IN HIS CAREER! RAKIM SAID THE WORD SHOT 1 TIME IN THIS SONG WHILE THE OTHER OUT TAKES WERE JUST BASED ON SLANG TERMS NOT WANTED ON CLEAN VERSIONS THATS ALL!
I wanna get more with this channel so I'm going to be a bit light on the judgement of lack of knowledge and. history. My advice, Just be careful stating facts and just peep the technique... Clearly they learning as they go and i think it's dope, being interested and into the culture.

“The 18th Letter” by Rakim…. Lyrical overload
He was not CURSIN'. HE was saying the 'N' word.
Rakim cursed in his very first single, Check Out My Melody. That he never curses is a myth. He just did it very rarely.
Not true, listen again King!

Rakim just dropped a new song called Be ILL
Definitely need to bring Justo and everybody else back and react to that Big Pun Capital Punishment album. That would be 🔥

Yo, I miss y'all bro. I turned my notifications back on and BAM this pop up.
Check out my melody. ..in think y'all did follow the leader. Do. " ghetto ". Raking the God MC lotta reasons why any of these rappers picked up a mic
He wasn’t cursing. The video is edited for the sake of monetization. The words that were bleed out were the N-word and a reference to a gun.
"He didn't curse he just said the n-word"
I'm sorry but are you dumb?
Y’all should listen to Pitch Black next the song It’s All Real
Great song! I think the song they have with Styles P is even better named "Nice" also the song they have w/ Foxy Brown is ill too! Both premo tracks
He aint really cursing ,and the cuts have the n word so they bleep it
Love all the cameo's in this video
"YOU JUST LIED" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
