| Black Star – Definition Lyrics | 18 years ago |
|
"but thing song doesn't really have a meaning to it." excuse me? this is hip hop for advanced listeners my friend. just one small, fine example... "COLOSSAL, true original b-boy apostle Standin on the rooftop with the, Zulu gestapo" COLOSSAL- a truly influential member to the advancement of hip hop culture, was a tagger and a b-boy, as mos so eloquently puts. then proceeds to embellish his position in the movement by putting him "standin on a rooftop" with the... Zulu Gestapo- zulu nation anyone? Afrika Bambaataa created this to raise awareness in hip hop culture and ensure the advancement of the society as a whole please, when discussing any black star material, it is simply unintelligent to suggest there is no meaning to a song. all of that is hidden. if it were not for external knowledge, a normal listener would believe it word for word... |
