Guitar Playin'
King Tee Lyrics

Hey King Tee, since this beat is kinda rockin'
Since this instrumental is energetic and upbeat, King Tee can rap over it and get the audience fired up

I'ma let you rap and get the suckers cold clockin'
The singer will give King Tee the opportunity to showcase his skills and make the haters feel inadequate

So yo loc', hear the beat I'm displayin'
Listen to the instrumental track I am presenting to you

But now listen to the guitar playin'
Pay attention to the funky guitar rhythm that Pooh has sampled and cut

Listen to the guitar playin'
Take a moment to appreciate the sound of the guitar

Yo, now if you're hip to me then I guess you heard bass
If you are familiar with my music, you have likely already heard my bass-heavy tracks

But I got another instrument to flaunt in your face
I want to show off a different aspect of my music by featuring the guitar in this track

It's not a flute or a trumpet, don't beef 'cause you love it
This isn't a typical instrument used in hip-hop, but don't hate on it because it sounds good

A funky guitar rhythm that Pooh sampled and cut it
Pooh found a great guitar riff and edited it to fit within the track

So for those who really know what dope stuff sounds like
For those who have a discerning musical taste

If it sounds good, sounds funky or sounds hype
If the music has a great rhythm or is exciting to listen to

Put your ear to this and let me know what you think
Listen closely and give me your honest opinion of this track

Yo Pooh, bust the guitar while I grab me a drink
Pooh, continue to play the guitar while I take a break and get a drink

Now to many people this tune is like fazin'
Some people might not fully appreciate the complexity and groove of this track

Get the crowd dancin' with the funkiest persuasion
Use the irresistible funk of this song to get the crowd moving and dancing

Hypnotizin' suckers with some personal-fication
Drawing in and captivating the audience with unique and personal elements in the music

Get the crowd movin', motivation
Inspire and energize the audience with this track

See I'm like a symbol to MC's, I'm a father
I am a respected figure and role model to other rappers

No wait, I'm a lyricist, better yet a saga
I am not just a rapper, I am also a skilled writer who can tell a long and complex story

Enough about the King 'cause you know I get far
Let's stop talking about me and my abilities, as my reputation and success speak for themselves

I played with the bass, now I'm messin' with the guitar
I previously worked with bass-heavy tracks, but now I am experimenting with the guitar

And the way that it sounds you say shucks
The sound of the guitar is so good that it may surprise and impress you

It can't be real how the player just plucks on the strings
The guitar sounds so intricate and interesting that it may seem unreal or impossible to play

It rings yo, it's like the funkiest rhythm
The guitar has a unique and funky sound that adds an undeniable rhythm to the track

Pooh brings the drums with the sticks to hit 'em
Pooh also includes percussion to complement the guitar, which he plays with drumsticks

It's not ballet jazz punk rock or swing, it's dope
Although this song may have elements of various musical styles, it is primarily a hip-hop track with a unique sound

Rappin' brought by the T apostrophe King
I am bringing my unique style and storytelling to the rap genre

And if I was in school and this was an assignment
If I were still a student and this were a class assignment

I wouldn't type it or write it, I'd just rhyme it
I wouldn't waste my time writing a formal essay, I'd just write a poem or rap with a good rhyme scheme

'Cause rhyme is what I like, I got a metaphor background
I prefer to write with rhyme and use metaphors extensively in my lyrics

A punk jumps up, I bust a verse, he sits back down
If someone challenges me lyrically, I will easily put them in their place

I wrote a epic, I hope you accept it
I wrote a long and complex poem, and I hope you appreciate it

Fly stupid rhymes I composed and perfected
I have crafted some excellent and clever rhymes that are sure to impress

I'm down with some people that know what they're doin'
I have connections with talented and successful people in the music industry

Darryl and Bobcat and Dwayne and DJ Pooh
These are some of the skilled and respected individuals I am working with

And Keith Cooley is cool see, I'm the coolest person
Keith Cooley is a great guy, but I am even cooler than him

Somebody drop the guitar before I start cursin'
If someone doesn't stop playing the guitar soon, I may start throwing around some profanity

So as it looks, the people like it
Based on the audience's reaction, it seems like they are enjoying this track

The funky guitar tune that we ignited
The exciting and unique guitar sound that we created for this track

Suckers be stumblin' when they hear the funky guitar strummin'
Even those who don't appreciate this type of music will be drawn in by the funky guitar riff

You know frankly, I think this cut is kinda musical
In all honesty, I believe this song has a lot of musical merit

Just like my bass song but don't get them confused though
This song is similar in quality to my bass-heavy tracks, but they are also unique in their own way

The guitar gets your mind in the funky kind of state
The guitar sound is so catchy and upbeat that it puts you in a fun and playful mood

And my bass makes the walls shake
My bass-heavy tracks are so powerful that they can physically shake the walls

Suckers can't come close with what I got goin'
My music is so good that other rappers can't compare to what I am doing

What I be doin', what I be showin'
The music that I am creating and presenting to the world

How I be conquerin' and how I keep rulin'
My success in the music industry and how I continue to dominate the scene

Where I get my Filas from, how I learned my slang
Personal details about my life, such as where I buy my shoes and how I speak

How could I afford such a big gold chain
Questions about how I am able to purchase expensive jewelry

And fly girlies tempt me when [unverified] wanna hit me
Beautiful women try to lure me in with their charms, even when they have ulterior motives

Why I drink brew 'til my body gets tipsy
My habits and preferences when it comes to alcohol consumption

To ask all the questions that I just spoke though
To inquire about any of the topics I just mentioned

It's not magic or a hoax I'm just loco
I am not performing any tricks or deceiving anyone, I am simply an eccentric person

I like bustin' on the funky dope track
I enjoy writing and performing over exciting and interesting beats

Smooth like T, mo' powerful than a gat
My rhymes and flow are smooth and polished, and are more impactful than a gun

Now that you know what's goin' around
Now that you are aware of the current events and issues at hand

Here comes the funky breakdown
The music is about to change and become more exciting and interesting

That's smooth, man
That sounds great and is very impressive

That made me laugh at all these suckers, man
The quality of the music is so good that it makes me laugh at anyone who would try to deny its greatness

You laughin' too Pooh?
Are you also finding this enjoyable, Pooh?

Yo Pooh, yo Pooh, break it down for a minute
Pooh, take over and play the guitar for a bit while I talk to the audience

Let me talk to the party
Let me address and communicate with the crowd

Now yo, me and Pooh is feelin' real hot right now, you know
Both I and Pooh are feeling very confident and excited in this moment

But we want y'all to know, that see, me and my crew
However, we also want to make sure that the audience is aware of the group effort that goes into creating this music

We from Compton, y'all heard about Compton? Compton
We come from Compton, a city that is well-known and respected in the hip-hop community

Aight, see that's where we from
That is where we are from and what shaped our experiences and perspectives
