Freestyle Friday: KRS-One vs. Buckshot

Since the new KRS-One/Buckshot album just dropped this past Tuesday, we’re gonna put these two emcees up head to head for today’s Freestyle Friday. Both emcees have been in the game a loooooong time, so this should make for an interesting thread.

The idea of Freestyle Fridays is to battle one another with your favorite verse from either of the two competitors. You’re essentially battling other commenters in this thread by using the words of KRS-One or Buckshot. We’ve been doing this feature for a little over a month now, but if you don’t remember how it goes, hit the jump for a few rules and then jump in on the comments!

Before we start, let’s see if we can keep the thread in order today, by following a couple simple rules:

1. Please don’t drop the lyrics to a whole song. No more than one verse!

2. Please stay in order…. KRS-One, then Buckshot, then KRS-One, etc. If you want to drop a KRS verse, wait until someone has dropped a Buckshot one. The idea is to go back and forth. It’s possible that more than one person may be trying to drop a verse at one time… we’ll just keep moving on.

I’ll start this thread off with a verse from KRS-One:

“Let me introduce you to another type of rapper MC
where glamor and glitter don’t matter gently
I’m tired of the Chattanooga empty
Classical like a German luger
Deep like a tune for scuba diving who am I the hyper
Like I said before my radar’s going BIBBIT BIBBIT
The microphone I grip-it grip-it, lyric lyric I live it
Hear it my spirit is where it should be
Don’t push me if you pussy, HUH
I spot em, it seems you want to ride the dillz
I got em, KRS got skills in the place
I waste megahertz of bass bottom, chill
As I rock em and get ill, I build the perfect spot to kill
Verbal excitement will lead to your indictment
Whether or not you like it, still, number one I hype it
Your album, rewrite it”

-KRS-One, “Wannabemceez”

Aight Buckshot, where you at?

    the incredible lyical and original
    You can kill a bull if you wanna take it cool
    Whatever I see I attack(tack)
    Fuck up the back black/nigga fuck that
    The devil lurks in my heart yearns for it well
    Look into the eyes of a nigga who fell
    I hit my head on the concrete to beat defeat

    KRS-ONE
    “out for fame”

    When I was growin up, I had no butcher baker candlestick maker
    I had rubbing alcohol and carbon paper
    Yeah, carbon paper and a blackboard eraser
    got me chased in the bus yards, with Rican and Nazer
    Historically speakin, cause people be dissin
    The first graffiti artists in the world were the Egyptians
    Writing on the walls, mixing characters with letters
    to tell the graphic story about their life, however
    today we do the same thing, with how we rap and draw
    We call it hardcore, they call it breakin the law
    There used to be a time when rap music was illegal
    The cops would come and break up every party when they see you
    But now the rap music’s making money for the corporate
    It’s acceptable to flaunt it, now everybody’s on it
    Graffiti isn’t corporate so it gets no respect
    Hasn’t made a billion dollars for some corporation yet, so
    in the name of Phase2, Stay High, Pre-streets
    Grab your cans and hit the streets, I’m out for fame

    BLACK MOON
    “powaful impak”

    Some pack a mac, I choose to pack a black 22
    By my waistline, buckin’ your whole crew
    I step through, and represent Black Moon
    First, before I kick a verse, I puff a bag of boo
    Lyrically I freak your funk you never heard
    My shit is so fly, when I kick it, it’s absurd
    Damn, how I wrecked your life with one record
    Made your crew break up and girl get naked
    Respected, because I work hard for my cash
    Shakin’ more flavor then Mrs. Dash
    Look out below, my flow will hit your brain
    I got dough, but I still hop the train
    I’m bustin’ niggaz open, Attica style
    Yo, straight to the jugular, brother you’re mad foul
    Gimme dat, because I rock with the best
    Yo, peace to the hardcore niggaz, fuck the rest

    Step into a world

    I’m bout to hit you wit that tradional style of cold rockin
    Givin options for head knockin non stoppin
    Tip-toppin lyrics we droppin but styles can be forgotten
    so we bring back the raw hip-hoppin
    Just like the records and tapes you be coppin
    Cop some breakdancin, boogie poppin, and lockin
    Tic tockin, guaranteed to have you clockin
    We only get better and only better we have gotten
    This type of flow don’t even think about stoppin
    Beware, the length of the rhyme flow can be shockin
    All music lovers in the place right now
    That never understood the way that KRS got down
    Yo I’m strictly about skills and dope lyrical coastin
    Relying on talent, not marketing and promotion
    If a dope lyrical flow is a must
    You gots to go with a name you can quickly trust
    I’m not sayin I’m number one, uhh I’m sorry, I lied
    I’m number one, two, three, four and five
    Stop wastin your money on marketing schemes
    and pretty packages pushin dreams to the beams
    A dope MC is a dope MC
    With or witout a record deal, all can see
    And that’s who KRS be son
    I’m not the run of mill, cause for the mill I don’t run

    FIRE FIRE FIRE

    [Buckshot]
    The saga continues the
    motherfuckin drama continues
    Buck brought bomb to ya
    interview and blew the main
    topic
    Whats up with boot camp clik son?
    They ain’t knockin they ain’t hot in
    Ain’t droppin the now topics
    But listen nigga this is how I pop shit
    I don’t mean Moet corks when the poet talks
    Every line leave ya blind when the mind get lost
    Rhymes are enforced with action
    Cause everybody looking like
    Is they slackin, are they back in what’s crackin?
    Nigga I’m hip hop like the backspinnen
    Never change the fact that I did back then

    BCC – AND SO
