Skepta - Back Then Lyrics
Plasticman production
Very early, very authentic, icy
Boy Better Know
Tracksuit mafia
Sun is blazin'
[Hook:]
Back then hoes didn't want me
See me on the magazine cover and they're all on me
The sun goes down, these skets wanna call on me
They can see that I make paper
My last mixtape was a game changer
And now I got these hoes on my iPhone talkin' 'bout, "Hey stranger"
I just double tap
Switch apps, ain't nobody got time for that
Jump on the plane and I kick back
Run up your mouth online, get a bitchslap
Cause man don't do that tit for tat
Don't wanna tweet, don't wanna talk, don't wanna interact with you
I can't take these niggas
Who the fuck raised these niggas?
Don't know a thing about workin' hard
Nobody gonna employ or pay these niggas
Yes I come from the streets
But still man's tryna make them Jay Z figures
And like Lukey said, "Trust me, failure's not an option"
Straight out of London, Tottenham
I get love from Houston to Compton
From Vancouver to Boston
Gimme the mic, I shut down, no problem
Treatin' shows of 25 people the same as 25 thousand
That's why I'm on a worldwide tour and I ain't even dropped my album
I never saw this comin'
When I was in the hood, stressed out, bunnin'
I had a strap on my lap thinkin' about enemies I wanna put one in
Now I don't care what niggas say
I've got girls down under tellin' me that I'm on Triple J
All my niggas on the rise, man
It's a sad time for the KKK
They're tryna work out what's happenin'
David Cameron on the phone to Obama
Man are shakin' and panickin'
When they see the Shutdown Shoreditch gatherin'
Come off my TV, all they do is stand up and pose like mannequins
I put my voting card in a black bin and I dash that like javelin
Phone rings
Who's that?
Phone rings
Voicemail for them tings, trust me, voicemail
[Hook:]
Yo, back then hoes didn't want me
See me on the magazine cover and they're all on me
The sun goes down, these skets wanna call on me
They can see that I make paper
Blacklisted was a game changer
And now I got these hoes on my iPhone talkin' 'bout, "Hey stranger"
I just double tap
Switch apps, ain't nobody got time for that
Jump on the plane and I kick back
This plane that I'm on got Wi-Fi
Run up your mouth online, get a bitchslap
Cause man don't do that tit for tat
Don't wanna tweet, don't wanna talk, don't wanna interact with you

I can only speak for myself as a listener but skeppy needs to jump back on plasticman Dubz and leave this fashion industry he’s wrapped up in

Plasticman killed it in vegas
Ahh yeah tracksuit mafia from UK to AU we feeling you out here Skepta. 😎
Voicemail for them tings trust meee
This backtrack was like num 11 on an album I think the main guy was “brazan boy” n a girl was spittin on his backtrack n it’s never forgotten but someone try he’ll find the name
Still tippin ma'fucka
nice !!!
Houston to UK! I see you Skeppy!
Everybody talking about the beat, praising plasticman - it’s still tippin - Mike Jones. Plastic just added some more bass and changed the drums a bit. And obviously the title of the track is a reference to mike jones’ verse in still tippin.
the BEAT is completely plastician, the only thing sampled from still tippin' is the violin sample. Go listen to still tippin' again, the BEAT is nothing similar.
its true im from Australia he is on triple j all the time. xxxx
It's true I'm from London and we really don't give a fuck bruv. What of it bruv
Just fucking raw
Glad I stumbled on this
Does he say Plastikman production at the start lmao Richie on the beat
haha yea :D he does so in "intensive snare" too always putting a smile on my face
who tha fuck put this subtitles?"straight out from London chocolate",really??
one of the best grime tracks of all time
Sick as always never lets me down shd hav 10 million views by now 1 of his best
Ayye Mike Jones still tippin sampled on the beat for sure.
