LISTENING DEAD

(D. ValentS, D. FrankS)

92.0 WVLNT
This is DJ Gustavo Fabbro 
And this week's topic is mumble rap
And our question up for debate is,
Has it had a watered down effect on the more traditional
Lyrical content from the artists of era's past
Call us up at 832-838-5687
Let's take a caller from line 1, 
You're on air, go head, hello whose this? 
Alright let's take another caller
Caller your on-air go head
What up Gustavo, this Valents
Check me out

For all those who wanna profile and pose
Rock you in ya face, stab ya brain,
With your nose bone
Why they still alive, why they still alive
Why they still alive, I don't know go figure

The Pioneers Era, it was early 80s
Golden Age mid 80's man those times was crazy
Gangsta Era, late 80's, Afrocentric
Mid 90's, The Second Golden Age came real quick
2000 and beyond was the biggest threat
End of the Platinum Era, birth of the internet
Exit the forefathers, Line 1 we have a new caller
"I'm number one on streaming charts, man I'm a rap scholar" 
Well suicide ya whole career, do it for the honor
Like the way of samurais, that disrespect the collar
I'ma cut ya cloth out the cultures fabric
Like Scottish tartan, cuz your rhyme patterns, 
Really haven't been classic
Sick to my stomach, y'all making me gastric
Y'all takin a shit on the legacy of Mr. Magic, 
Chuck Chillout, Red Alert, Doo Wop, Flash,
This ain't a test, it's an emergency broadcast

For all those who wanna profile and pose
Rock you in ya face, stab ya brain,
With your nose bone
Why they still alive, why they still alive
Why they still alive, I don't know go figure

Some argue the early two thousands was in fact, 
The golden times, boundaries broke, radio had no regional lines
Hot 97, didn't sound east coast at all
The New York State of mind, was deep fried in southern drawl, 
But props to the South they walked it out, when we couldn't crawl
Too much Sizzurp wait let's take another call
"The stations lights is on, but no one is home"
"Dial where hip hop lived, (laughing) you'll get a dial tone"
I know it's the future but let's take it back, 
Back to the days, before all this mumble rap
The scriptures of lllmatic, Ready To Die, It Takes A Nation
I mean some y'all nice I'm saying this outta frustration
Enter the 36, Paid in full, Only Built, The Chronic
Compared to those works of art, ya'll sound demonic
Industry like 28 days later, the rage is blown
Nowadays it's dawn of the dead
DJ's hang up ya phone

For all those who wanna profile and pose
Rock you in ya face, stab ya brain,
With your nose bone
Why they still alive, why they still alive
Why they still alive, I don't know go figure
Verse 3

Ok taking one last call, after that no more requests
"Thanks this track did it best, to finally lay us back to rest"
Time to force feed listeners like they suffer from bulimia
Lack of air made god mc's sick, like sickle cell anemia
Since the current era popped up
Purists want them chopped up
Screwed up and chewed
Out spit like bad food
Lyrical dudes in the mood
Feeling crude lookin schizo
They wanna leave em speechless, 
Like slaves on calypso
Serpent and the rainbow
Bury y'all dead with beats and rhymes alive though
Bunch of zombies, ya'll listening dead
Headphones is dead zones, they just mumbling instead
They moaning & groaning
I ain't talking trees but ya'll need a Stoning
Culture Vultures vs. 47 ronin
The Listening Dead Era, has came to be
But that's alright y'all dead,
Ya'll can't even hear me
