Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rascalz's song "Where You At" feature verses from KRS-One, RedOne, and Misfit, each showcasing their own unique style and delivery. The opening verse from KRS-One is full of confidence as he demands the respect that he deserves as a pioneer of hip-hop. He references important figures in the history of the genre, like Cool Herc and Faze 2, while highlighting his own skills on the mic. KRS-One boasts of his ability to pick up rhymes quickly and deliver them with a unique technique that sets him apart from other rappers. He also takes jabs at other artists who he feels have inferior lyrical abilities.


RedOne's verse focuses on the idea of being "criminal-minded", which is a reference to the famous album by Boogie Down Productions, a group KRS-One was a part of. RedOne raps about the rough and tumble life of a hip-hop artist, always on the run from the cops and living on the fringes of society. He also references the Bronx, the birthplace of hip-hop, and Vancouver, where the Rascalz are from, as two important cities in the culture.


Misfit's verse rounds out the track with a powerful delivery, showcasing his ability to flow effortlessly over the beat. He references his own unique style, which he says is "unorthodox" and designed for hard knocks. Misfit's rhymes are dense and packed with internal rhymes, making it hard to keep up with his flow. He also references the idea of "genocide" and "homicide", suggesting that his lyrics can be deadly to his opponents.


The chorus ties the whole concept together, asking "where you at?" and proclaiming that the Rascalz are "right here where I'm supposed to be". It's a statement of confidence, a challenge to other artists, and a celebration of hip-hop culture all in one.
