[Premier scratch: "This mic in my hand, I'm rulin!"]
[Verse One: Guru]
Stupid, you know it's time to sit and think, before we hit the brink
Lockerroom, at a prize fight, before he hit the ring
Like when I tell these corporate leeches they can't get a thing
Or when I tell relentless rappers they had better sing
The position that anyone holds could be up to grabs
I'm waitin up the ave to see if anyone folds
Since I was twenty-one years old and legal
I knew the difference between gimmicky gangsters and powerful people
I'm the reason, why the game is flipped
I'm the reason, why your aim is missed
I'm the reason why you're mad I only sprained my wrist
The reason my mindframe is trained in this
You like gunfire? Better acquire the taste
Cuz youf walk aroun' with full pounds by dem waist
Deface property, they be laced properly
Rules are rules, fools are fools, I react logically
Ain't no way, so come, make my day
Like Tom Hanks I earn long bank and Cast you Away

"This mic in my hand, I'm rulin!"
"I repeat, this is not a question"
[Chorus: Guru] (Krumbsnatcha)
Oh you brag about the ki's you flipped and who you done up
Nigga whattup? (Put up or shut up!)
Poppin shit about the chicks and the whips you got
You think you hot? (Uh-uh, man - you put up or shut up!)
Always talkin bout your dough and your wealth and fame
Youse a lame (Get out of here - put up or shut up!)
You got hot beats and kids that can spit mad fire?
Youse a liar! (That's whack - put up or shut up!)

Aiyyo I've seen the toughest of tough guys, the ro
Gang Starr is a hip hop duo formed in New York City in 1987 by Guru (Keith Edward Elam) and DJ Premier (Edward Barnes). After some initial releases with other members, the duo established themselves as one of the most influential forces in the New York hip hop scene. Their music, characterized by Guru's introspective lyrics and DJ Premier's complex and innovative beats, helped define the sound of East Coast hip hop in the 1990s. Some of their most representative tracks include "Mass Appeal", "Just to Get By" and "Above the Clouds". Gang Starr released eight studio albums, including the gold-certified "Hard to Earn" (1994) and the acclaimed "Moment of Truth" (1998). The group disbanded in 2003 with Guru's death.

Do we want to define "I know you know me" a masterpiece? Yes, without a shadow of a doubt for at least two reasons. The first and most evident are the artists who interpret it: Caroline Spence and Matt Berninger, second for the deep and poetic text.
My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
