@619 OG no I agree brotha. Im just saying it's true mostly casual rap listeners just name obvious guys like Tupac , biggie, taking, eazy, method man. But I agree dude I'm glad no one knows eventually people will love this music and appreciate how amazing of true art this music is. Glad to see others like me out there who love the underrated guys

Said who? I know he bought Showbiz's Fat Pockets when hanging around with Show & A.G. in New York in 1992, he loved Halftime by Nas and knew the words by heart and loved Kool G Rap, Kane and Rakim's stuff.
Voka Panthara Barega Basically says “We’re cold and heartless, don’t play around with people, machine in my hand look up inside my gun. You wanna talk now you wind up missing, when the funeral comes they moan over your coffin...???...pete rock CL smooth drop it and we just chat, specialize in this so they can’t do me nuttin”
It wasn't bro...this was on the Japanese release of the Searchin' single, available only on vinyl at the time. Its why I collect wax, for gems like this.
![Nas - Deja Vu [Best Quality]](/img/1.gif)
2023… this is what you call TIMELESS MUSIC
this is the definition of hip hop
Word.
Yes sir
i often think a Pete Rock production is what i would play to someone who has no idea what real hiphop is
Damn Skippy it is!!.
Let’s be honest, doesn’t get much better than this! Mecca Don and the CHoc Boy Wonder
cl smooth was very underrated lyrically. he was original and had a tight flow. u can't argue with that
One of the best ever if you ask me his flow is incredible
@619 OG yeah you're right universally people love him but not too the mainstream media bro and you know that
@619 OG no I agree brotha. Im just saying it's true mostly casual rap listeners just name obvious guys like Tupac , biggie, taking, eazy, method man. But I agree dude I'm glad no one knows eventually people will love this music and appreciate how amazing of true art this music is. Glad to see others like me out there who love the underrated guys
Rakim* not taking lol
@619 OG for real 🤣🤣 haha hell yeah man
Wow, thumbs down??? Really??? Classic material here with zero explanation needed. Refreshing then and still is, as this is timeless for the heads and a jolt to the pulseless... Wake up!!!
Cl murdered it. Salute to the whole 914
I really miss when hip hop sounded like this
I've actually never listened to the real song just the instrumental holy shit CL smooth just never disappoints over a Pete beat
Still hittin hard as ever in 2020!
2019 and I’m still bumping this shit idc. Very underrated & lyrical a lot of people sleep on Real Hip-Hop
You should be bumping that real hip-hop! anything else wouldn't be right!!!!
This song is new to me! I just saved another classic to my library
my god the track crushed my mind !!
I miss real rap😥😥😥😥😥
It’s the reeeeal hip hop
[Verse 1: C.L. Smooth]
Lights, camera, action (Smooth)
The extra blazin' I push
Is like Moses talkin' to the burnin' bush
Face the furious meltdown of underground bugs
The kingpin raising all my thugs, hear
When I set the flossing overhead now
With the click that makes you die for the family and God
No doubt we're facing this and guard your radius
When I come with the squad, that would dead it instantanious
Arms grab me, out the killing fields of crossfire
Just to put me in chains behind barbed wire
Keep a strap on his lap, son, the gate is fat, bless me (It's done)
Then drag 'em naked for blocks, 'til you open up the safe box
For new Glocks my revolution's gold as every hour
My firepower's aimed at your control tower
True that, I thought you knew that
My swerve is out of hand
Introducing Scatter Black, my stick man
[Verse 2: Kenny]
It's on, hands up, the pocket-wanter
Gun-slinger, the street linger
Homing a dead bringer, poppin' your derby thinker
Scatter, niggas fear the mercenary corner vet
Deep like the projects, America's threat
Walkin' nightmares, sharks, wolfpacks
Who crave burners and switchblades
Havin' brothers runnin' like slaves
Devoted crook lives, generate pies, niggas will die
Trapped and lost souls in the game that we specialize
[Chorus: Pete Rock Scratched Samples]
"Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth"
"Specialize in music"
"That's why I give you more of the raw"
"I'll only use this type of style when I choose it"
"I speak for the hardcore, hardcore"
"Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth"
"Specialize in music"
"That's why I give you more of the raw"
"I'll only use this type of style when I choose it"
"I speak for the hardcore, hardcore"
[Verse 3: C.L. Smooth]
We hittin' your set in a posse
A legendary madness to blend with made men
Approachin' ghetto celeb status
Guns for hire, movin' keys of my empire
The source is, niggas reachin' for their armed forces
A Wolf In Sheep's Clothing and snakes that rattle
Plus your ultimate fear, is being cut down in battle
Blessed with the team and to get the cream and
My bloodline is fiendin' to slay the demon
So what you want, dunn? Tonz O' Gunz
Hoes most goes in addition
Ballin' in the crew for position
Damn to my terror, the cruel love, etcetera
Warrior, competitor, a step ahead of ya
Fruitcakes front like you're from the penintentiary
'Cause outside ya "full" inside ya "empty"
Tempt me, to break your manhood and work you like a mule
'Cause the world has no pity for the fool
Meet the press, now don tell us really what it represents
Any man should die for turning state's evidence
Who you fazin'? The extra blazin', conversation
It's probably why they hauled me in for tax evasion
Hope my clique knock a Brinks and my family eat
Preparin' all my enemies to fall before my feet
It's sweet to see the Black man rise
Open your eyes, C.L. Smooth specialize
[Chorus: Pete Rock Scratched Samples]
"Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth"

"I'll only use this type of style when I choose it"

[Verse 4: C.L. Smooth]
Take 'em to the straits where fleets of fool run it
Trapped off in a Holy War where you don't want it
If the feud escalate, and the drama can't cease
Take this cue ball in the sock to the headpiece
The crime iller for realer, the hunted bounty killer
Trackin' somethin' sinister then confess to your minister
I want seven figures, we pull the biggest triggers
Or bring a lynch mob back and start hangin' niggas
With brute force I show no remorse
Break you off like sexual intercourse
Dig it, the connection
For you to start to pay me for protection
And make no mistake, we want all the cake
Do your pull-ups and dips in the cool out musclin'
But when midnights strikes, all my players start hustlin'
Put your weight on the scale and major supplies
To pump these drugs we specialize
Listen 👂
