This is a dedication to old school hip-hop
Much love
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
You never had to worry who was takin charge
When my man Heavy D was livin large
LL Cool J was rockin the bells
And Run DMC was raisin hell
Everything was good, there was no time to sleep
Hangin with the Fat Boys and all you can eat
As I think back to all the times we had
Visions of memories, of pricey days gone past
Wished that it'd never stop, that every moment would last
It's funny to me how time goes so fast
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
As I think back I can clearly see
Slick Rick's "La Di Da Di" was a part of me
Party spree, that's how it used to be
Turntables and the mic, that's how they got busy
Never no gimmicks, just raw rap skill
Like EPMD, "Strictly Business" for real
When Big Daddy Kane said "Ain't no half steppin"
Real MCs used their lyrics as a weapon
And when it was dark, MC Lyte helped us see
As Queen Latifah expressed rap royalty
Biz Markie said he's just a friend
And Special Ed had the "Master Plan"
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
Remember when wearin Kangol was cool
Breakdancin, beatboxin on the avenue
And when everybody needed to dance
Kin play, MC Hammer was in command
You had De La Soul, KRS-One givin it real
And Public Enemy tellin you just how they feel
And when Roxanne, Future and Bo couldn't agree
Like all DJs you couldn't wait to see
Who was the one that would come on top
I wish that these days didn't never stop
Much love to Sugarhill Gang for rap
When they came on and put hip-hop on the map
Thanks for Grandmaster Caz and the Furious Five
Kool Moe Dee, Funkmaster Flex for keepin it live
You can't forget Kurtis Blow
French Prince, Rakim for their lyrical flow
And for Ice Cube, N.W.A
Ice-T let you know that Compton didn't play
Salt-N-Pepa and Dana Dane
Too Short, Whodini brought flavor to the game
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
Way back when hip-hop was fun to me
I remember, I remember how it used to be
That part of hip-hop that was close to me
Hip-hop, hip-hop
Much love to hip-hop, hip-hop
