My Philosophy - Boogie Down Productions[00:00:00]

So, you're a philosopher?[00:00:00]

Yes, I think very deeply.[00:00:02]

Let's begin, what, where, why, or when[00:00:26]

will all be explained like instructions to a game[00:00:29]

See I'm not insane, in fact, I'm kind of rational[00:00:32]

when I be asking you, "Who is more dramatical?"[00:00:34]

This one or that one, the white one or the black one[00:00:37]

pick the punk, and I'll jump up to attack one[00:00:39]

KRS-One is just the guy to lead a crew[00:00:42]

right up to your face and dis you[00:00:45]

Everyone saw me on the last album cover[00:00:47]

Holding a pistol something far from a lover[00:00:50]

Beside my brother, S-C-O-T-T[00:00:52]

I just laughed, cause no one can defeat me[00:00:55]

This is lecture number two, "My Philosophy"[00:00:58]

Number one, was "Poetry" you know it's me[00:01:00]

This is my philosophy, many artists got to learn[00:01:02]

I'm not flammable, I don't burn[00:01:05]

so please stop burnin, and learn to earn respect[00:01:07]

'cause that's just what KR collects[00:01:10]

see, what do you expect when you rhyme like a soft punk[00:01:13]

you walk down the street and get jumped[00:01:16]

You got to have style, and learn to be original[00:01:18]

and everybody's gonna wanna diss you[00:01:21]

like me, we stood up for the South Bronx[00:01:23]

and every sucka mc had a response[00:01:26]

You think we care? I know that they are on the tip[00:01:28]

my posse from the Bronx is thick[00:01:31]

and we're real live, we walk correctly[00:01:33]

a lot of suckas would like to forget me[00:01:36]

but they can't, cause like a champ[00:01:38]

I have got a record of knocking out the frauds in a second[00:01:40]

on the mic, I believe that you should get loose[00:01:43]

I haven't come to tell you I have juice[00:01:46]

I just produce, create, innovate on a higher level[00:01:48]

I'll be back, but for now just seckle![00:01:51]

I'll play the nine and you play the target[00:02:04]

you all know my name so I guess I'll just start it[00:02:06]

or should I say, "Start this," I am an artist[00:02:09]

of new concepts at their hardest[00:02:11]

cause, yo, I'm a teacher and Scott is a scholar[00:02:14]

It ain't about money cause we all make dollars[00:02:16]

That's why I walk with my head up[00:02:19]

when I hear wack rhymes I get fed up[00:02:21]

Rap is like a set-up, a lot of games[00:02:24]

a lot of suckas with colorful names[00:02:27]

I'm so-and-so, I'm this, I'm that[00:02:29]

huh, but they all just wick-wick-wack[00:02:32]

I'm not white or red or black[00:02:35]

I'm brown. from the Boogie Down[00:02:37]

Productions, of course our music be thumpin'[00:02:39]

others say their bad, but they're buggin[00:02:42]

let me tell you somethin' now about hip hop[00:02:45]

about D-Nice, Melodie, and Scott La Rock[00:02:47]

I'll get a pen, a pencil, a marker[00:02:50]

mainly what I write is for the average New Yorker[00:02:52]

some mc's be talkin' and talkin'[00:02:55]

tryin' to show how black people are walkin[00:02:57]

but I don't walk this way to portray[00:03:00]

or reinforce stereotypes of today[00:03:02]

like all my brothas eat chicken and watermelon[00:03:05]

talk broken english and drug sellin'[00:03:10]

See I'm tellin, and teaching real facts[00:03:11]

The way some act in rap is kind of wack[00:03:12]

and it lacks creativity and intelligence[00:03:16]

but they don't care cause the company is sellin' it[00:03:18]

It's my philosophy, on the industry[00:03:20]

Don't bother dissin me, or even wish that we'd[00:03:23]

soften, dilute, or commercialize all our lyrics[00:03:25]

Cause it's about time one of y'all hear it[00:03:28]

And hear it first-hand from the intelligent brown man[00:03:31]

A vegetarian, no goat or ham[00:03:33]

or chicken or turkey or hamburger[00:03:36]

'cause to me that's suicide self-murder[00:03:38]

let us get back to what we call hip hop[00:03:41]

and what it meant to DJ Scott La Rock...[00:03:44]

How many mc's must get dissed[00:03:56]

before somebody says, "Don't f*** with Kris!"[00:03:58]

this is just one style, out of many[00:04:01]

Like a piggy bank, this is one penny[00:04:04]

My brother's name is Kenny - that's, Kenny Parker[00:04:06]

My other brother I.C.U. is much darker[00:04:09]

Boogie Down Productions is made up of teachers[00:04:11]

the lecture is conducted from the mic into the speaker[00:04:14]

Who gets weaker? The king or the teacher[00:04:16]

It's not about a salary it's all about reality[00:04:19]

Teachers teach and do the world good[00:04:22]

kings just rule and most are never understood[00:04:24]

If you were to rule or govern a certain industry[00:04:27]

All inside this room right now would be in misery[00:04:29]

No one would get along nor sing a song[00:04:32]

'cause everyone'd be singing for the king, am I wrong?![00:04:34]

So yo, what's up, it's me again[00:04:37]

Scott La Rock, KRS, BDP again[00:04:40]

many people had the nerve to think we would end the trend[00:04:42]

We're criminal minded, an album which is only ten[00:04:45]

Funky, funky, funky, funky, funky hit records[00:04:47]

no more than four minutes and some seconds[00:04:50]

the competition checks and checks and keeps checkin'[00:04:52]

they buy the album, take it home, and start sweatin'[00:04:55]

why? well it's simple, to them it's kind of vital[00:04:57]

to take KRS-One's title[00:05:00]

to them I'm like an idol, some type of entity[00:05:02]

in everybody's rhyme they wanna mention me?[00:05:05]

or rather mention us, me or Scott La Rock[00:05:08]

but they can get bust get robbed, get dropped[00:05:10]

I don't play around nor do I f*** around[00:05:13]

and you can tell by the bodies that are left around[00:05:15]

when some clown jumps up to get beat down[00:05:18]

broken down to his very last compound[00:05:21]

see how it sounds? a little unrational[00:05:23]

a lot of mc's like to use the word DRAMATICAL![00:05:26]

Fresh for '88, you suckas...[00:05:28]
