Brother Ali - Star Quality Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yo it's the Ox in the flesh, of course I'm fresh
Yes, I'm livin for the funk like I was Lord Finesse
Last night I screamed till I lost my voice I guess
Had a few things left to get up off of my chest
Only gold plaque that I got, had the Qu'Ran on it
I fliped your eviction notice over, wrote a song on it
Like to hear it, here it go, light your spirit, clear your soul
If I would've known that tonight was Ladie's Night
I would've stopped and swabbed my balls with the baby whipe
In the van, Hold your sorry little life in my hand
Watch me toss it in the sky and swing right for the stands
Battling me is like trying to ride your bike in the sand
I'ma eat one more helping, then I'm, whiping my hands
And you frustrated rappers, must hate the fact
Tryin to catch me, with the ass and the chest
I ain't tryin to be rude lady, I'm just passin a test
Got enough hastle and stress, with one woman cashing my cheques
I'll take the compliment and pass on the sex
[Chorus]
We like
Brother Brother Brother, how ya making 'em get down
Come, straight to your town, vibrating the ground
Keep the people out there scared, of making a sound
Thats our policy, we step out there on Star Quality
Brother Brother Brother, how ya making 'em get down
Come, straight to your town, vibrating the ground
Keep the people out there scared, of making a sound
Thats our policy, we step out there
[Verse 2]
You ain't hardcore, you soft more than Shamar Moore
In a tight shirt sayin 'Let's slow this train down ya'll'
You stink hoes, spills a whole, lot of nothing
Got the nerve to look Ox in the eye, you got it coming
While your woman nod her face to the beat, you tasting defeat
Whiping the waste from my cleets, between the space in your teeth
Erogation, facial features all hung down
That little dumb frown is perfect for salt water to run down
Talk harder to some clowns, cause they need it rough
Make sure they never sleeping deep enough to dream of beating me, what
My styles a little belligerent, isn't it?
Considerin that I'm belittling them, with little more then
My pad and my pen and my sediments
Weither its your chorus scratching, or wack track blasting,
Your whole approach to rapping, is ass crack backwards
Cats'll see me in the spot and act salty
Stressing you save hip hop, you can't even save a wack party
[Chorus]
We like
Brother Brother Brother, how ya making 'em get down
Come, straight to your town, vibrating the ground
Keep the people out there scared, of making a sound
Thats our policy, we step out there on Star Quality
Brother Brother Brother, how ya making 'em get down
Come, straight to your town, vibrating the ground
Keep the people out there scared, of making a sound
Thats our policy, we step out there
[Chorus 2]
And the preachers say
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
And the choir say
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
And the preachers say
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
And the choir say
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
[Verse 3]
Brother Ali is Two Hundred, Fifty Pounds of Piss and Vinegar
Few try to sit me down, they missing limbs and
I got nothing on, but a lifestyle, black tuxedo
An Arethra Franklin record, and I'm rockin Captain Ego like
'Dun Dadda, Shit, Ya Done Poppa'
There's only three reasons Ali would need a Ramada
One; to move the bowels, two; to steal the towels
Three; Shave, shower, pray for my spiritual power
I can handle this, if my man Ant would just
Give me a chance to splatter some antics across his canvisses
Damage is unavoidable at this point
I twist joints till they pop lock, too loud and get ya knot rocked[?]
I'm too proud to let you hop scotch through
The section of the Earth that I occupy, without making you testify
Best that I could do for you, is ignore you
Cause Id probably conquer you if I explore you
Words from the Brother.
[Chorus]
We like
Brother Brother Brother, how ya making 'em get down
Come, straight to your town, vibrating the ground
Keep the people out there scared, of making a sound
Thats our policy, we step out there on Star Quality
Brother Brother Brother, how ya making 'em get down
Come, straight to your town, vibrating the ground
Keep the people out there scared, of making a sound
Thats our policy, we step out there
[Chorus 2]
And the preachers say
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
And the choir say
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
And the preachers say
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
And the choir say
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
[Outro]
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"
"Oh Ah Hey, Oh Ah Hah"

Brother Ali Star Quality Comments
If I would've known that tonight was Ladies' Night I would've stopped and swabbed my balls with the baby wipe
Alhamdulillah
alexa accidentally played this but now it’s my new fave song lol
It does sound Nostalgic, it kind of reminds of a song they would put in Tony Hawks Underground 2!!
Ant is the most slept on producer ever
Been bumpin this since it came out and havent stopped yet! #Classic
haven't heard this song in forever. I just randomly remembered the line "you aint hard core you soft more than shamar moore" lmao
And the preachers say
can't believe I slept on this album. 👍
I miss this vibe in hip hop sooooo fresh for real!!!!
still banging this
islam is greatest
wow 2007 was 9 years ago
wow this comment was 6 months ago
Fav Ant beat
Such a beautiful song, brings me back for sure
This would've been a great song in the game Grand theft auto San Andres.
LMAO!!! The best thing I ever did was ignore you; because, I would probably conquer you if I ever explored you! I like it in the metaphorical sense, you have nothing on me dude! (but not in the literal sense as in subjugating a people'people(s) ) Such a fantastic line/phrase!
Kyle Cameron JEEEESUS
I'm not a religious man at all, but Ali is a gift from above
same here and yeah I know what you mean dude hah
xXspeedingangelXx #FACT
Healing powers going through some health problems right now this literally makes me feel better peace 2 Ali
Accidently clicked on this song while trying to click Rain Water, was about to change it but that beat caught me by the ear and pulled me in.
funkadelic sample! right on
Love this track...
such a classic. nostalgic
His music is enough for me to get past that, and his lyrical content just seals the deal. This cat is just so real that you have to expect to hear about HIS reality.
brudda brudda brudda
greatness
1st Track I ever heard from him.. rest is history. Thank you Brother Ali
Of course.
I am sure you will admit that atheists aren't immune to cognitive dissonance and are guilty of it as well :/
> there is a god
> believe in what you want
Don't communicate your beliefs as fact if you're cool with people believing in whatever they want. Cognitive dissonance in religious people is too common on YouTube.
I'm sorry to hear that.
i know what you mean
You're right. It's levels beyond it.
Mannnn this song brings back true feelings I used to have
i rapped this, it has a flow but dont think that was its intentions haaaa
Isnt it more logical to respect someone who says what he believes in?
@vistasmasher You have rubbish for brains.. this is over your head. GTFO
@TheFlood462 hahaha! exactly my point! I do not not give a flying FUCK
Fuck this shit. It is not music.
I'm Atheist, and could not give a fuck what Brother Ali's religion is.. I'd still listen to him if he was a Morman or a Scientologist
Eviction notice flipped over and wrote a song on it....
Word up... Every metaphor is just sooo on key and delivered clean
@wierdandontgivadamn Grieves and Eyedea man, actually the whole rhymesayers crew
Along with immortal technique if you like politics
Cormega if you want actual gangsta rap (Best song journey and fallen soldier)
Brother ali shows you dont need to rap about bullshit to be good
its depressing......why cant other rappers be as good and true as this lyrical star. Brother Ali is THE SHIT!!!!!!!!
i can handle this/if my man ant would just/give me a chance to splatter some antics across his canvases
Such a smooth verse, love that line!
@RhymeAnalyzer no they wouldnt the mainstream artists would die off is all that would happen if every1 started to pay respect to real lyricist
Two people don't know the way real hip-hop should sound.
Your show on Roskilde Festivalen (Dk) was fantastic... Hope too see you again in litle Denmark.... ;-)
love this song
@HighandMighty609 But then they wouldn't be underground and would lose their finesse.
Battlin me is like tryin to ride your bike in the sand...WHAT?!?!?! THIS TRACK IS FIRE!!!!!
"my style's a little belligerent isn't it, considerin' that I'm belittlin' men with a little more than my pad and my pen and my sentiments."
deep cut, never heard this be4
Got enough hastle and stress with One woman cashin my checks, I'll take a compliment and pass on the sex.
real.
great rhyme scheme on the first verse
swab my balls with a baby wipe.
MINNESOTA
diz iz weck lil wayne all day lil weezy get money and whores all day young money soulja boy all day....sorry folks just wanted to see how it is to turn off your brain and ignore good music like this
This is just flat out great. it's definitly in my favorites. the beat is fucken awsome!
Just when I keep thinking Hip Hop music is dead...It takes one artist like Brother Ali to make me realize that there are real rappers out there who care about making great music
@metrodorus Excellent. Thank you so much. This is probably my favourite Ali song and this was bugging me. I knew all the lyric sites were wrong!
Any one know the lyric at the very start?
"Its the ??? in the flesh"
@demari93 Immortal don't even write half of his own shit,
Brother Ali is extremely underrated..Theres still plenty of people who need to hear his message...Real music...Why so many good artists not gettin the recognition like they should like jay elec,currency,immortal tech, top scholars,etc?
Physically-21
Mentally/Emotionally/Spirtually-Never stops growing.
Revelutionary sound!! Brother (albino) Ali 5/5. Need more music like this. Rhymesayers out it too...WHOOP!
We're always growing up in my opinion
Just curious but what age do you stop growing up? I personally think you finish when you die, but I'm interested in hearing what other people think. This isn't me trolling by the way I'm being serious :P.
agreed but some people still cling to it
how is it not real
real music is not on tv or radio thats why :O
yeah he's indian LOL n00b
is he indian
same...idk y brother ali is so unknown his music realy is some of the dopest shit out there....i hope its not jus cuz hes albino, that wud realy say something about society
Found this on a random search, and I love, LOVE it.
Love Brother Ali. Sioux Falls, SD. Lincoln, NE, Tempe AZ.
Now that's a catchy chorus....T-pain aint got nothin on Brother Ali!
i 3rd that!
Real hiphop isn't dead...
It's burried DEEP Underground. !
classic track, so sikk, his lyric and delivery in this is truly brilliant
Juice on the Loose!
amazing. he grew up in the ghetto but he doesnt talk about the ghetto constantly.
He's a true artist.
He's from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Not Detroit.
But still an amazing lyricist.
Lurch685 he's from Madison, WI.
shadows on the sun classic!!!
chaps a fuckin animal with the lyricism...
I saw ghost live and he was a dissapointment aswell, he had the whole theodore unit there and they tooki away from his performance. He didn't have as much energy as I expected either..would love to see the R live though, he's a living legend
BRAPP!!! second dat!
Brother Ali is a large, bald albino with red eyes - he's not what most people picture when they hear his amazing rap. I got the chance to see him live, opening forGhostface Killah & Rakim at a show in Seattle. Probably the dopest show I have ever seen...no DJ..they had a fucking 9 person band playing all the beats! The Rhythm Roots Allstars. Amazing show, amazing MC
brother ali is my favorite emcee of all time!!! yall heard one of his tracks called "the session" his flow is dooooooope
i wanna see him do a song with some other underground emcees like hasan salaam, immortal technique, or k'naan
He'll get his. Don't worry folks. He's dope enough he'll get what he's got comin and then some.
Dope track and really dope album cover!
sooo clean brother ;) CLEANFLOW!!!
Love his flow... and that he's not gangsta.
I LOVE YOU man.........HAKAN DEMİR
