| Making hip hop in Italy has never been easy, but nowadays critics play
|
| whoever makes you the first a plaque you talk about drugs, you can talk about it on a record too
|
| if your whole life is all you've seen man ...
|
| You have to keep up with new sounds
|
| To sell "buitoni" pasta to more Italians, tell me what the compromise is
|
| between hardcore and commercial when you no longer have an album but a record from
|
| to trade?!
|
| Some brothers say I'm commercial now
|
| I honestly don't even know where to start!
|
| With this rap I have to eat
|
| And thank God the tour has finally started going again
|
| Put some Article 31 in your hand, mix it with the undertones and what do you have?
|
| Italian hip hop!
|
| Three names are enough to make history… the genre that has had the most up and down of
|
| a slut, you see ...

|
| I remember I was on the street peddling smoke
|
| While J-ax spoke to a generation with no one!
|
| These new rappers would sell their asses and honestly it all fits me perfectly
|
| against one!
|
| And they told me - why do you go on mtv? |
| - hip & underground you can't do that!
|
| DJ Jad said I'm not a good "MC"
|
| And that my style looks too much like "slim j d"
|
| But you see, while I'd pay Ax for a featuring I wouldn't even ask Jed to
|
| scratch me about subtitles!
|
| In this game it's all a matter of ego!
|
| And envy for my place is all I see!
|
| How boring this "MC" who always fight, hip hop is nothing but one
|
| permanent brawl!
|
| You hear these voices, what people say when they see a black man with le
|
| gold chains on each tooth !!!
|
| It's just my seat sitting smiling these hater telling me to lose
|
| they have nothing, if you want your moment of fame, you have to give me more than give me
|
| a son of a bitch! |
| "punk"
|
| RIT
|
| Don't touch these buttons bastard it's always harder to dress wide,
|
| will it be the shit that's in the air or just that every b-boy who loves hip hop is
|
| forced to eat shit in Italy!
|
| And I'm still waiting for the sun, I've never listened to Mina, but yours are
|
| words words words
|
| I'm living on words in the States 9 out of 10 rapping a few guns,
|
| In Italy, how hard it is to lose love ...
|
| I did my serenades too, yes, sir!
|
| I'm advertising my latest record
|
| It is the last show, what I witness will be a show!
|
| Rappers slash entrepreneurs and fast money always seems like the best money ...
|
| I should make a movie and write two more books for this winter expect there
|
| my clothes line
|
| RIT
|
| Ah ... rotten people wonder why I don't show up around anymore ...
|
| Ah the marches wonder why I don't do battles and freestyle anymore ahh… punk!
|
| You know what would happen if you did a battle and freestyle with a son of
|
| bitch who doesn't like my face ?! |
| he ?!
|
| Spending my day doing freestyle battles, man ?! |
| ha ha… yeah
