Cypress Hill - Strictly Hip Hop Lyrics






I neva rapped on an R and B record, and I neva will
I got these phoney muthafuckas, talk about lets keep it real
But, they don't know how to take they own advisement
Going out, do it solo on an advertisement, commercializing
Fuckin' sell out, nigga, this is hip-hop, not fashion
Get the hell out

I'm peepin' out these so called gangsta niggas
Takin' pictures, modeling clothes for small figures
And I neva took another fuckin' MC's shit
And made it my first single, fuck a hit

Fuckin' hypocrite, you can get the dip, when I lick a shot off
I'm gonna, end all of it
It's a damn shame when you got all these fools in the record industry
Sellin' out for the fame
I just sit back and watch all these fools with their gimmicks
Go down in flames, in the big game

Zippidey-dooda, I smoke weed and I got brain damage
But, I don't give a fuck 'cuz I still manage
To represent to the fullest
No pop singles, and no actin' foolish
To the studio gangsta with them articals
In them magizines with the bitch editors

Keep it real in the game
Niggas got no shame
Now all the executives want all the fuckin' fame
Based on the videos, just a gang of silly hoes
For the fuck-em industry that's take'n all ya dough
I neva stole it, stole it all
Just hard work, and sweat, for them platinum records on the wall
Fools want me to fall
But I won't, 'cuz my roots are too thick and strong
Like the chocolate tastic

I hear niggas say no, but, I know they front
'Cuz afta they shows they want me to smoke a blunt
I don't respect a hypocrite, muthafuckas I despise
'Cuz me, I tell the truth, even when I tell a lie
All you bruthas in the game run a check
'Cuz you get checked fucked off, with no respect
Muthafuckas

    No problem with the way he Masters the Hill

  36. K.... G....

    This song still applies today. When they said so-called real niggas doing Sprite commercials, I think they were talking about Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth, which surprised me, too, to see them doing Sprite commercials. Now today, Rakim did it. And rappers are still modeling.

    Most lyric sites have "going out solo on an advertisement" instead of the real line "going out doing soda water advertisement"
    Of course I come to youtube comments and someone has it correct!

  67. S.... D....

    Feels like walking down a watery,wobbling hallway that never ends, puffing on a blunt the size of a hotdog...

    S.... D....

    When this came out we had two-blunt-dimes and rolled up two in an optimo (((((((((((((((((((()

  68. s.... ....

  70. D.... ....

    One of my favorites ever from Cypress Hill..where they got that "strictly hip hop" vocals from ? I know it's from a old school song.

    D.... ....

    @DaGamerWithLogic EPMD (Parrish Smith) on "Crossover"

  73. L.... A....

    M.... V....

    Vraag ne toch af wie je bent dat je mij kent @E Dawg​

  80. s.... ....

    Classic, I loved this song, and album still do! Hip Hop has changed so much!

    s.... ....

    @shortbus1127 I think that these days it's a shame to call it hip hop what you hear today.. -.-

    s.... ....

    @RandomHero Very true, but there still is some good Hip Hop, just harder to find....like K-Rino, found him and he blew me away...I seriously couldn't believe that a rapper like him could even exist

    s.... ....

    @shortbus1127 I gave that K-Rino a try, but in my opinion he's not even close to same level with old school hip hop. Even the music videos were bad.. =p That's just my opinion tho. ;) Me, I'm more into 80's, 90's and very early 2000's rap music.

    s.... ....

    @RandomHero So what did you listen to by him....the sound may not be 90's but his lyrics and rhyme patterns are crazy

    s.... ....

    Cypress hill brought it on this one Temples of boom is by far one of Cypress hills best albums.

  81. 1.... ....

    nigga this is hip-hop, not fashion. my favourite cypress song

  82. E.... F....
