Boogie Down Productions

Boogie Down Productions was a hip hop group that was originally composed of KRS-One, D-Nice, and DJ Scott La Rock. DJ Scott La Rock was murdered on August 27, 1987, months after the release of BDP's debut album, Criminal Minded. The name of the group, Boogie Down, derives from a nickname for the South Bronx section of The Bronx, one of the five boroughs of New York City. The group pioneered the fusion of dancehall reggae and hip hop music and their debut LP Criminal Minded contained frank descriptions of life in the South Bronx of the late 1980s thus setting the stage for what would eventually become gangsta rap. more »

Hah  giddyap! 
Ha ha ha hah.. 
Another dope dope dope style 
By the massive BDP crew 
Of course  I will now present to you 
A different view  for 1990 
Of course  eighty nine is behind me 
Check it out 

It's called breath control  breath control  breath control stylee 
Breath control a lone  breath control A LONE 
Breath control  breath control  breath control stylee 
Breath control a-lone.. 

It's KRS-One, yes the t'cha 
I wear Clarks and only Nike sneaker 
In your speaker, is the new style 
Dedicated to the intelligent child 
In the front row, or behind me 
We're gonna pull somebody file for the 90's 
You want lyrics? We come correct 
BDP, only movin with respect 
The other MC's, they can't believe me 
A when I rhyme it sound just like a CD 
We don't lip-sync, we go all live 
On stage, I bring about four or five 
That's D-Nice, Sydney, and Melodie 
And myself, Harmony, and Willie D 
We come humble, we just grumble 
While other MC's crew just crumble 
They want DANCERS, they want lighting 
They want effects, to make them look exciting 
But it's frightening, cause without that 
The whole crew, is whick whick whick whack 
BDP comes, with the cheapest 
And perform miracles like Jesus 
The total respect, we achieve it 
And the big head-liner can't believe it 

It's called breath control, breath control, breath control stylee 
Breath control a-lone, breath control A-LONE 
Breath control, breath control, breath control stylee 
Breath control a-lone.. get ready for the break.. 

Ha ha ha ha ha hah
Well the styles I, usually dish out 
Are so dope that you don't want to miss out 
We got PAGES, of the dope stuff 
So in the record store, you can't pass by us 
GET the album, HEAR THE MUSIC 
And hold on so you just don't lose it 
As a reference, for any MC 
That want to test, K-are-S, O-N-E 
Cause I've been watchin, these other rap groups 
They walk around like they're some kinda big soup 
You can't touch them, you only see them 
In a arena or big coliseum 
So when you watch them, for a second 
Them sound NUTTIN like they do on record 
Them sound cheesy, them sound wheezy 
For twenty dollars boy you know them never please me 
So I see this, and prevent this 
It's like goin for a checkup at the dentist 
'Cause when you come to a BDP performance 
The microphone, had better have endurance 
'Cause we'll check it, and then wreck it 
And then the soundman has got to accept it 

Because it's breath control, breath control, breath control stylee 
Breath control a-lone, breath control A-LONE 
Breath control, breath control, breath control stylee 
Breath control a-lone, take it out
