What's It Worth - Pat D and Lady Paradox&Melodiq [00:00:01]

Melodiq, Pat D, Lady P sounding sweet[00:00:10]

The UK and the USA[00:00:12]

Paradox and Melodiq, poetic like sonnets[00:00:15]

Words come alive, these lyrics keep flowing[00:00:18]

Melodiq, Pat D, Lady P sounding sweet[00:00:20]

The UK and the USA[00:00:23]

Paradox and Melodiq, poetic like sonnets[00:00:25]

Go together like treble and bass[00:00:28]

Music’s meaning is more than the words, it’s the feeling[00:00:30]

The passion, the soul, writing late in the evenings[00:00:33]

It breathes in the records like turn to the ceiling[00:00:36]

Motivated dreaming, back to what believing[00:00:38]

It’s been in hearts, on tracks in vain[00:00:41]

It’s seen in awe on graff on trains[00:00:43]

The media try to attack its name[00:00:46]

But the realness can’t be attached to fame[00:00:48]

But who am I to say what hip-hop is?[00:00:51]

Hip-hop was before Paradox lived[00:00:54]

Before Yo! MTV Raps got big[00:00:56]

When the soul and the words was what made hop hits[00:00:59]

DJs rock kicks after digging in the crates[00:01:02]

Now we’re living in an age where the rhythm is misplaced[00:01:04]

It’s all about the chains, the millions you make[00:01:07]

So I sit back, imagine as I listen to the greats[00:01:09]

Hip-hop, some say it’s still the same[00:01:12]

It’s real hip-hop[00:01:16]

Hip-hop, some say it’s still the same[00:01:18]

What’s it worth?[00:01:22]

Hip-hop, some say it’s still the same[00:01:23]

It’s real hip-hop[00:01:27]

Hip-hop, some say it’s still the same[00:01:28]

Some say it’s still the same, it ain’t that[00:01:31]

It’s the authentic, all the time prolific, lyrical extraordinaire[00:01:34]

Got rhymes to share, to educate the masses[00:01:38]

Toasting the realness, raise your glasses[00:01:41]

Never underestimate the movement[00:01:44]

Always keeping my ear to the pavement[00:01:46]

That’s what the pioneers did back then[00:01:49]

Before they had two 12s making the blend[00:01:52]

No emails to send, only word of mouth[00:01:54]

Seems that real hip-hop is in a drought[00:01:57]

Critics kept saying that it wouldn’t last[00:02:00]

Through the years it persevered and made cash[00:02:02]

Somehow it grew up too fast[00:02:05]

Matured incorrectly, evidently[00:02:07]

Now it’s time to do my thing[00:02:10]

With ill flows and vibes that I bring no doubt[00:02:13]

Hip-hop, some say it’s still the same[00:02:16]

It’s real hip-hop[00:02:19]

Hip-hop, some say it’s still the same[00:02:21]

What’s it worth?[00:02:24]

Hip-hop, some say it’s still the same[00:02:26]

It’s real hip-hop[00:02:29]

Hip-hop, some say it’s still the same[00:02:31]

Now let’s take a sec to think back[00:02:34]

Gangstarr[00:02:36]

JD[00:02:39]

Common Sense[00:02:41]

Large Pro[00:02:44]

Nas[00:02:46]

Pete Rock[00:02:49]

Tribe Called Quest[00:02:51]

KRS was number one[00:02:54]

Just being in here[00:03:18]

Is a humbling experience to me[00:03:20]

Because you’re looking through all these records[00:03:21]

And it’s sort of like a big pile of broken dreams in a way[00:03:24]

Almost none of these artists still have a[00:03:27]

A career, really[00:03:30]

Ten years down the line you’ll be in here[00:03:31]

So keep that in mind when you start thinking like[00:03:33]

“Oh yeah, I’m invincible and I’m the[00:03:36]

I’m the world’s best or whatever[00:03:38]

Because that’s what all these cats thought[00:03:40]
