Live At The Barbeque
DJ Jazzy Jeff Lyrics

It's like that y'all (that y'all!), that y'all (that y'all!) That y'all (that y'all!), that y'all (that y'all!) And that's all!
The opening lines of a rap song that are intended to hype up the crowd and serve as an introduction to the rapper performing

Street's disciple, my raps are trifle
I am a rapper who is highly skilled at my craft, and my music is highly respected

I shoot slugs from my brain just like a rifle
My lyrics are powerful and have the ability to strike hard like slugs from a rifle

Stampede the stage, I leave the microphone split
When I perform on stage, I am so energetic and intense that I leave the microphone in tatters

Play Mr Tuffy while I'm on some Pretty Tone shit
While I am performing on stage, I have all the confidence of Mr. T, while also channeling the charisma and style of rapper Pretty Tone

Verbal assassin, my architect pleases
My delivery is lethal and deadly, and my lyrics are so well-crafted that they please even the most discerning ears

When I was twelve, I went to hell for snuffing Jesus
I have always been a bit of a rebel, and when I was young, I got into trouble for acting out

Nasty Nas is a rebel to America
I have always been seen as an outsider or rebel to mainstream American culture

Police murderer, I'm causing hysteria
Some people see me as a danger to society and blame me for the problems that exist

My troops roll up with a strange force
I have a dedicated group of supporters who are always ready to show up for me and make their presence felt

I was trapped in a cage and let out by the Main Source
I was held back or limited in some way, but the hip hop group Main Source helped me break free and achieve my potential

Swimming in women like a lifeguard
I am highly successful and attract a lot of female attention

Put on a bulletproof nigga I strike hard
I am tough and can handle myself in any situation

Kidnap the President's wife without a plan
I am not afraid to be bold or outrageous in what I say or do

And hanging niggas like the Ku Klux Klan
I am making a statement about the ongoing problem of racism in America

I melt mics till the sound wave's over
My performance on stage is so intense that it feels like the microphones are melting

Before stepping to me you'd rather step to Jehovah
I am so intimidating that you would rather face God than take me on

Slamming MC's on cement
I am so good at what I do that I can take on any other rapper and come out on top

Cause verbally, I'm iller than a AIDS patient
My skill as a rapper is so great that it is comparable to a deadly disease

I move swift and uplift your mind
My music has the power to inspire and motivate listeners

Shoot the gif when I riff in rhyme
I am highly skilled at creating rhymes that flow effortlessly and sound great

Rapping sniper, speaking real words
My rapping is so precise and calculated that it feels like I am attacking my opponents with precision and accuracy

My thoughts react, like Steven Spielberg's
My thoughts are highly creative and imaginative, much like the films of Steven Spielberg

Poetry attacks, paragraphs punch hard
My lyrics are so powerful and well-crafted that they can be compared to a physical attack

My brain is insane, I'm out to lunch, God
I am highly creative and unconventional, and I don't always conform to society's expectations

Science is dropped, my raps are toxic
My music has the ability to influence people in a way that is dangerous or harmful

My voicebox locks and excels like a rocket
My delivery is so powerful that it feels like I am launching rockets with my voice

Fatal is merciful and they curse me
Some people view me as a threat or danger to society, while others see me as someone who is just misunderstood

When I grip the mic I show no mercy
When I am on stage performing, I give it my all and show no mercy to my opponents

I got heart, I rip the party apart
My music has the ability to create excitement and energy in a crowd

From the seams and hem up like bell-bottom jeans
I am a skilled rapper who can create music that is both catchy and fashionable

But you get done, you get blues like 501
If you try to take me on, you will fail and be left feeling blue

Brothers are live but I bet ya I'm liver son
Other rappers may be good, but I am the best and most talented

So let me get upon the scene and redeem
I want to take my music to the next level and prove my worth to the world

The dream of a team, and knock 'em out like Mitch Green
I have big goals and dreams for myself and my music, and I am willing to take on anyone who stands in my way

Smoke some thai weed, flow at a high speed
I am so talented that even when I am high, I can still perform at a high level

Rap on off breaks stomping like Northlakes
My flow is so unique and impressive that it stands out from other rappers

Cause I'm living larger than the founders of Fendi
I am a highly successful rapper who has achieved more than many people ever will

An Asiatic brother that many rappers envy
As a successful rapper who is of Asian descent, I am an inspiration to many people who share my background

So round up your crew and entourage
I am ready to take on anyone who wants to step up and challenge me

And let the God Merciful just take charge
When I am on stage, I am fully in control and confident in my abilities

Some of them said (said what?) that the Ak should quit
Some people have doubted my abilities as a rapper, and have suggested that I should retire

But I don't sweat it, cause I'm too big for that small shit
I am confident in myself and my abilities, and I don't let negative comments or criticism get to me

Like pigs when it comes to a showdown
Other rappers are afraid to challenge me because they know that I am too skilled and talented

Huff and puff but the Ak won't get blown down
No matter how hard my opponents try, they will never be able to knock me down or defeat me

Cause I come strong, rather than come at all and not be ready
When I perform on stage, I give it my all and come prepared to deliver a great performance

That's what separates me from the petty
My dedication and talent as a rapper sets me apart from others who may not take their craft as seriously

MC's gas themselves by drinking too much Getty
Other rappers tend to overinflate their own abilities and believe they are better than they are

And get torn the fuck up like confetti
Despite their inflated ego, these rappers are easily torn down and defeated

I'm rich and thick, your lyrics like Aunt Jemima
I am highly successful and respected, while other rappers struggle to gain traction and recognition

It doesn't take Keenan Ivory Wayans to know that I'mma Get you sucker if you bite like a piranha
My skills as a rapper are undeniable, and I can take down anyone who tries to emulate my style or copy my work

So save them preschool rhymes for the kids at Wonderama
Other rappers who cannot compete with my abilities should stick to simple rhymes that are better suited for children's programming

Point blank, period, with no comma
My skill as a rapper is straightforward and easily understood by anyone who listens to my music

Rhymes so dangerous, call for the homicide
My music has the ability to incite strong emotions in listeners and cause them to take extreme actions

Cause I knock 'em dead even when I'm at my worst
Even when I am not at my best, my music is still better than most other rappers

The only future that lies ahead of them is the lights from the hearse
Other rappers who try to compete with me will not be successful, and will likely end up dead or unsuccessful

Got game like a crackhead
I have a lot of skill and talent in my craft

But don't be misled, I keep rappers on lock like a dread
Although I am highly skilled, other rappers should not underestimate me because I will always be a fierce competitor

Knots in the head from the words that I said
My lyrics are so powerful and intense that they can literally cause physical pain or discomfort

So get a shovel and dig your grave cause the shit you talk is dead
If you try to take me on, you will fail miserably and be left with nothing but disappointment and failure

I grab up girls like jacks
I am highly successful with women and attract a lot of female attention

Add 'em on like tax, and I'm over like Hot Trax
I am so talented and successful that I am in high demand and always in the spotlight

As far as brothers are concerned a pressure cooker from start To finish I diminish like a Cuisinart
I am a master at what I do, and those who try to compete with me will be left feeling inadequate and insignificant

Secondly, I'm sick of critics, who's necking me (Ooh he got an afro) yo, but I got dough
I am tired of critics and naysayers who try to bring me down, but I am secure in my abilities and financial success

Why's my name the Large Professor? Cause I milked your cow in other words I hit your heifer
I am famous and well-known in the rap world because of my talent and ability to create great music

Don't talk about how you can break Rambo That's just a bunch of mamba-ja-hambo
Other rappers who talk a big game are often just full of hot air and don't have the skills or abilities to back up their claims

Propaganda, save it for Savanda Joe and Amanda, Zach and Alexandra
Other rappers who try to use propaganda or other tactics to gain power or influence will be unsuccessful, and I am not intimidated by them

Don't let the folks around your way puff your head Cause you'll be the owner of a hospital bed
If other rappers let their success get to their heads, they will eventually be exposed and left feeling humiliated or defeated

I'll kick fire out your ass so fast You'll be as crispy as my man Bill Blass
If other rappers try to take me on, I will quickly dismantle them and leave them feeling crispy or defeated
