Lyrics Rhymin' on the funk Digital Underground

Rhymin' on the funk


[Chorus]
S-H-I-N-I-N on the funk
And listen to the emcees rhymin on the funk
We solemnly swear to never bust a style that's bunk
So listen to the way that we're rhyming on the funk
[Shock G]
Now we would like to ask you
Have you ever heard this style befo'
You gotta say no
Cause there ain't no denying
And if you say yes you're lying
People are always wondering
What's up with the Underground
Are they down?
Or is just another new sound
We're saying things
And when we use a beat we use it right
Cause we're not just playing things
Spitting rhymes
Like a Tommy gun spraying things
So when you see us onstage
Don't just stare us down
Or compare our sound
To any other crew ya like
Yo, judge how ya like
[Chorus]
[Money-B]
Riding this like a roller coaster
Hugging the curves and dipping
Like I'm supposed to do
For the Underground troupe
Cause I know I'm the poop
Steaming hot
Stinking up the dance floor
Gonna do it freelance
For the funk, my friends
And all the others in the industry
They want to get with me
(Shock: Why is that, Mon?)
Maybe it's my smooth flow
They know this guy is dope
So they get hip to the style I'm using
It's called Raw Fusion
Ain't no time for ego-tripping
Let it be known
There'll be no slipping on mine
Cause all I want
Is a chunk of this Underground funk
[Chorus]
[Shock G]
Yo, Money-B
[Money-B]
What's up cold Shock G?
[Shock G]
Check it out, would you tell the people what we mean
[Money-B]
What do you mean what we mean?
[Shock G]-acap

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Digital Underground was an alternative rap group from Oakland, California. They could also have been accurately defined as a "project" or "music family" rather than a group as their personnel steadily changed and rotated with each new album and tour. The group rose to fame in the 1990s thanks to its innovative style that blends rap, funk, and soul. Among their most notable songs are «The Humpty Dance», «Doowutchyalike» and «Same Song». Digital Underground was also known for launching the career of Tupac Shakur, who collaborated with the group at the beginning of his rise to success.
