I remember listening to this and many recorded future flavors shows through a walkman... at the close of many nights preparing for high school the next day while sleeping on the couch at my dad's house alone while the rest of my siblings were living with our mom. I was alone, yet never really alone. This song always stuck to me. let me know things was gonna be alright
The streets battle grows hotter as the +I+ plays a role of the martyr Touching evey land or earth like a Harlem Globetrotter With a message it prays tellin brothers to rasie their hands And take a stand because we all understand You have to bake the cake with grease So let the battle release and make enough so that we all get a piece A slice for Mama Do, a slice for Papa Do I come from Uptown and kid that's how we do I only speak for I.N.I. can't speak for your crew So why would I waste my time to even stress you I keep my mind on billed, and plus I keeping some skill Consant thought about the madness can't hear the ldol chatters about So I escape and take the funk rotue out, hi-stories taught me what is all about My destiny is profilled when I'm over and out But I'll leave apart of me to cover all my acounts and I'm out [Pete Rock] Chorus: You always wanna be in the spotlight (right) The Center of Attention I also like to mention I.N.I. rocks the spot It's like that cuz we keeping it hot [Rob-O] Check it out, yo You see I prefer the player's approach so bust it The beat is knockin Skins is thick like custom plus the weapons That keep me steppin' while I perfects the art of microphone check-in You flow slick for a second But now It's Rob-O's dicks your sweatin And at my show, you see theatin Why you stressing the tense to quench the strengh of this wiff microphonist Your bitch attention is to bone us Monotonous, crusin all this I got rhym goddamn Confuse the funk music, rock, and jam Packin stands and grands and at the female fans At the Local Thea-ther The vocal creator slash I show blast beacuse you can't fuck with me I guess this is the way your luck will be Frontin much nerve, with the rep that you can't preserve Step to +I+ and '95 you gettin' served the method of Center of Attention Chorus [Grap Luva] Doesn't truly pay to be the Center of Attention The main atraction gettin' all the action People stoppin' the +I+ with question after question I spit a few replies and keep to myself And never been the weapon carrying type but I'll incite A riot organize and never quiet Don't it try it, dissin the +I+ is no use I bounce like Cashar tape and get loose Grippin the mic, spittin words I write On the pad or the paper, this pretictular caper Got nuff up's and down's, industry clowns Jealous niggas tryin to keep countin my figures But yo, I'm a spiritual millionaire dropping bombs Like King David when he wrote the Psalms So what you need to do to listen up remain calm Not riding a wave refuse to be a slave cause I'm the center Chorus [Rob O] True dat, True Dat INI, Soul Brother, Pete Rock once again ?????, All the time, check it out Polo, the center of attention Meccalisious, you'se the center of attention Terrence I be the center of attention My man Tito, you the center of attention Money Tas, you'se the center of attention And Grand Bangin you the center of attention Lou Bizzy, you'se the center of attention Pete Red be the center of attention Groovy Lou you know the center of attention, you be Warp G, the center of attention, you be G.O. be the center of attention My man Rocka-Rock be the center of attention Dave Ice is the center of attention My brother Heavy D, you the center of attention All the boroughs be the center of attention Pete Rock you'se the center of attention Let's Bounce

Pete rock music makes me feel like.When my Dad use to listen to Marvin Gaye's. It stays in your soul. The funk baby.🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Pete Rock was an animal on this one 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Pete is my #1 favorite producer of all time.
Havoc from Mobb Deep for me
Premier is the best.

Dilla, Madlib, Pete Rock in that order (just my opinion!!!)

Underrated beat 🥹🥹
The streets battle grows hotter as the +I+ plays a role of the martyr
Touching evey land or earth like a Harlem Globetrotter
With a message it prays tellin brothers to rasie their hands
And take a stand because we all understand
You have to bake the cake with grease
So let the battle release and make enough so that we all get a piece
A slice for Mama Do, a slice for Papa Do I come from Uptown and kid that's how we do
I only speak for I.N.I. can't speak for your crew
So why would I waste my time to even stress you
I keep my mind on billed, and plus I keeping some skill
Consant thought about the madness can't hear the ldol chatters about
So I escape and take the funk rotue out, hi-stories taught me what is all about
My destiny is profilled when I'm over and out
But I'll leave apart of me to cover all my acounts and I'm out
[Pete Rock] Chorus:
You always wanna be in the spotlight (right)
The Center of Attention I also like to mention
I.N.I. rocks the spot
It's like that cuz we keeping it hot
[Rob-O]
Check it out, yo
You see I prefer the player's approach so bust it
The beat is knockin
Skins is thick like custom plus the weapons
That keep me steppin' while I perfects the art of microphone check-in
You flow slick for a second
But now It's Rob-O's dicks your sweatin
And at my show, you see theatin
Why you stressing the tense to quench the strengh of this wiff microphonist
Your bitch attention is to bone us
Monotonous, crusin all this I got rhym goddamn
Confuse the funk music, rock, and jam
Packin stands and grands and at the female fans
At the Local Thea-ther
The vocal creator slash I show blast beacuse you can't fuck with me
I guess this is the way your luck will be
Frontin much nerve, with the rep that you can't preserve
Step to +I+ and '95 you gettin' served the method of Center of Attention
Chorus
[Grap Luva]
Doesn't truly pay to be the Center of Attention
The main atraction gettin' all the action
People stoppin' the +I+ with question after question
I spit a few replies and keep to myself
And never been the weapon carrying type but I'll incite
A riot organize and never quiet
Don't it try it, dissin the +I+ is no use
I bounce like Cashar tape and get loose
Grippin the mic, spittin words I write
On the pad or the paper, this pretictular caper
Got nuff up's and down's, industry clowns
Jealous niggas tryin to keep countin my figures
But yo, I'm a spiritual millionaire dropping bombs
Like King David when he wrote the Psalms
So what you need to do to listen up remain calm
Not riding a wave refuse to be a slave cause I'm the center
Chorus
[Rob O]
True dat, True Dat
INI, Soul Brother, Pete Rock once again
?????, All the time, check it out
Polo, the center of attention
Meccalisious, you'se the center of attention
Terrence I be the center of attention
My man Tito, you the center of attention
Money Tas, you'se the center of attention
And Grand Bangin you the center of attention
Lou Bizzy, you'se the center of attention
Pete Red be the center of attention
Groovy Lou you know the center of attention, you be
Warp G, the center of attention, you be
G.O. be the center of attention
My man Rocka-Rock be the center of attention
Dave Ice is the center of attention
My brother Heavy D, you the center of attention
All the boroughs be the center of attention
Pete Rock you'se the center of attention
Let's Bounce
