Kema Lyrics

Kema MC, yo
Kema, the emcee addresses the listener.

Avec l'appuie d'une cassette
With the help of a cassette, Kema discovered rap through Nique Ta Mère (NTM).

J'ai découvert le rap à travers j'appuie sur la gâchette #NTM
Kema discovered rap through listening to the music of NTM and pressing the trigger on a cassette player.

J'ai découpé les phrases
Kema has dissected and analyzed the lyrics of rap to understand its complexities.

Pour épuiser les facettes multiples de cet art
Kema has examined every facet of rap music to gain a complete understanding of the art form.

Et puis j'ai bafouillé les centaines de phases, soûlé des sales de thèmes
Kema has experimented with hundreds of rhyming schemes and themes, exhausting all possibilities.

J'suis trop vieux jeux c'est ça l'blème, de nos jours tout vacille
Kema feels too old-fashioned and out of place in the current rap scene, where everything seems unstable and uncertain.

Etre MC ce n'est pas montrer sa gueule à la une de Voici
Kema believes that being an emcee is not about seeking fame and publicity like a celebrity.

L'as-tu comprit mon ami? Si c'est non je te prescris, du J-Dilla, du Big Pun, les tracks de Madvillainy. Tous les albums fantastiques de Slum Village, ou l'univers mystique du Gravediggaz
If the listener does not understand Kema's message, he prescribes listening to J-Dilla, Big Pun, Madvillainy, Slum Village, and Gravediggaz to gain a deeper appreciation for rap and its various sub-genres.

C'est sur un banc que j'ai fait mes dents sur du Reverend Run, [??] me répétant qu'on a les dents que les vétérants veulent
Kema honed his rap skills while sitting on a bench and listening to Reverend Run, who taught him that veterans of the game determine what is and isn't good in rap music.

J'ai fait un gros blocage vocal dans le passé, car trop de gars s'autoproclament haut de gamme dans ce rap game
Kema struggled with writer's block in the past because he felt that too many people in the rap game claimed to be high-quality emcees, making it difficult for his own voice to be heard.

Ouais trop d'taches lâchent des flows sans âme du coup, tout devient trop trash excepté quand la prod est faite par Char du Gouffre
Kema believes that many rappers today are uninspired and lack soul in their flow, except when produced by a talented producer like Char du Gouffre.

Dans ce bizz, que des mythos qui s'emballent devant les gens
Kema sees the rap industry as full of fake personalities who put on a show for the audience.

Je reste un inconnu pourtant j'ai 10 ans de rap dans les jambes
Despite having a decade of experience in rap, Kema remains relatively unknown.

Et tu ne pourra me voir qu'en disant croire aux légendes
Kema believes that only by acknowledging the legends of rap and their influence on the genre can one appreciate his own music.

T'entendra ta reu-mé chante car je fuck tes paramètres
Kema rejects the norms and restrictions of commercial rap, instead embracing his own unique style and rejecting any attempts to categorize him as a certain type of rapper.
