Talkin' All That Jazz (LP版) - Stetsasonic[00:00:00]
Well here's how it started[00:00:23]
Heard you on the radio[00:00:24]
Talking 'bout rap[00:00:25]
Sayin' all that crap about how we sample[00:00:26]
Given examples[00:00:29]
Think we'll let you get away with that[00:00:30]
You critizie our method of how we make records[00:00:32]
You said it wasn't art so now we're gonna rip you apart[00:00:34]
Stop check it out my man[00:00:37]
This is the music of a hip-hop band[00:00:40]
Jazz well you can call it that[00:00:42]
But this jazz retains a new format[00:00:44]
Point where you misjudged us[00:00:46]
Speculated created a fuss[00:00:49]
You've made the same mistake politicians have[00:00:50]
Talking all that jazz[00:00:54]
Talk well I heard talk is cheap[00:01:13]
But like beauty talk is just skin deep[00:01:15]
And when you lie and you talk alot[00:01:18]
People tell you to step off alot[00:01:20]
You see you misunderstood[00:01:21]
A sample is a tactic[00:01:23]
A portion of my method a tool[00:01:24]
In fact it's only of importance when I make it a priority[00:01:26]
And what we sample of is the majority[00:01:28]
But you are a minority in terms of thought[00:01:31]
Narrow minded and poorly taught[00:01:33]
About hip-hop playing all the silly games[00:01:35]
You erase my music so no one can use it[00:01:37]
Step on us and we'll step on you[00:01:40]
Can't have your cake and eat it too[00:01:42]
Talking all that jazz[00:01:43]
Lies that's when you hide the truth[00:02:02]
It's when you talk more jazz than proof[00:02:04]
And when you lie and address something you don't know[00:02:06]
It's so whack that it's bound to show[00:02:08]
When you lie about me and the band we get angry[00:02:11]
We'll bite our pen start writin' again[00:02:13]
And the things we write are always true[00:02:15]
Suckers get a grip now we talking 'bout you[00:02:17]
Seems to me that you have a problem[00:02:19]
So we can see what we can do to solve them[00:02:22]
Think rap is a fad you must be mad[00:02:24]
'Cause we're so bad we get respect you never had[00:02:26]
Tell the truth james brown was old[00:02:29]
'Til eric and rakim came out with I got soul[00:02:31]
Rap brings back old r&b[00:02:33]
And if we would not people could've forgot[00:02:35]
We wanna make this perfectly clear[00:02:37]
We're talented and strong and have no fear[00:02:39]
Of those who choose to judge but lack pizazz[00:02:42]
Talking all that jazz[00:02:45]
Now we're not tryin' to be a boss to you[00:02:55]
We just wanna get across to you[00:02:57]
That if you're talking jazz the situation is a no-win[00:02:59]
You might even get hurt my friend[00:03:02]
Stetsasonic the hip-hop band[00:03:04]
Like sly and the family stone we will stand[00:03:06]
Up for the music we live and play[00:03:08]
And for the song we sing today[00:03:11]
For now let us set the record straight[00:03:13]
And later on we'll have an informal and a formal debate[00:03:15]
But it's important you remember though[00:03:18]
What you reap is what you sew[00:03:19]
Talking all that jazz[00:03:21]
Talking all that jazz[00:03:26]
Talking all that jazz[00:03:30]
