Tech N9ne, baby
Big Stone, baby
Fly Moves, baby
'Bout to do it like this, c'mon!
[Stevie Stone:]
Bitch, you better bow down, we on call (Yeah!)
I got Tecca Ninna givin' dude the [?] (Yeah!)
Said I'm a dawg (Yeah!), yeah I'm a dawg (Yeah! Huh!)
[Hook: Stevie Stone & Tech N9ne]
Midwest Midwest (Yesss!)
Head get ta bobbin' when you're rocking with the best (with the best)
Midwest Midwest (Yesss!)
Spread to the east, north, south and the west (and the rest)
Midwest explosion ('splosion) [x2]
Midwest explosion
Born in the middle where them haters can't hold 'em
[Verse 1: Stevie Stone]
Said I explode, I'm hungry, I'm on top
Get-them-a-little-quickness
When I'm ripping I'm giving the game [?]
Can-I-get-a-witness?
[?] I'm away on top
Take a picture nigga (rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin')
Give me some room, I'm in tune
I got groove, I bloom if you're from January to June
I'm a beast, [?] none of the least (The least!)
With Tecca Ninna riding with me, lotta haters deceased (Ahaah!)
They got me on my leash
(Huh!) I'm about the crown is goin' down
I'm a blow up the town, I'm in and out, just lay it down (Aaahaaah!)
[?] nouns and pronouns
[?] I'm a little bit [?], but I'm so loud! (So loud!)
You don't really-wanna come round here and flex with them niggas
It's Stevie Stone, Tecca Nina put a hex on ya nigga (uh huuuuh!)
Just believe it, I got that potion (that potion)
Ya hear me on ya airwaves, causing some commotion!
[Hook]
[Verse 2: Tech N9ne]
Tecca N9na the cleaner, bus' it like none other-can (cha!)
"Mizery" niggas countrier than banjo and [?] (cha!)
Salt and pepper beezys they see me and scream "what-a-man! "
Never love her but-I-cut her, she stutter like [?] (cha!)
Hang loose and gritted (cha!)
(Strange Music did it!) (cha!)
Bang through the shitted
With that Strange Music fitted
Gangs swang to the critics (cha!)
Mayne when you get it
It's gone cause Ninna and Stone dun chained you and spit it
I'm nasty (cha!). Wacky, sex in the back of the tour bus
Saucy, bossy, ice and cognac in a [?] cup (cha!)
Bianc's on my back cause I'm stacking [?]
Juicy, won't open her mouth with me baby sure sucks! (cha! cha!)

You can find Stone, Tech N9ne alone [?], Midwest nigga! (cha!)
[Hook]
[Outro:]
Midwest Explosion ('splosion) [x5]
The song "Midwest Explosion" by Stevie Stone is an ode to the rapper's home region and a celebration of his success as an artist. The lyrics talk about the pride that Stone feels about being from the Midwest while also boasting about his prowess as an MC. The chorus emphasizes the power of the Midwest as a cultural and musical force: "Head gets to bobbin' when you're rockin' with the best / Spread to the east, north, south, and the west." This theme is reinforced in the verses, particularly in Tech N9ne's guest verse, where he describes how he and Stone have "chained" their listeners and critics with their music.
The lyrics of "Midwest Explosion" also contain numerous wordplay and metaphors, particularly in the verses. For example, Stevie Stone raps, "Get-them-a-little-quickness / When I'm ripping I'm giving the game [?] / Can-I-get-a-witness?" This phrase plays on the phrase "give them the business" to describe Stone's lyrical speed and skill. Similarly, Tech N9ne's verse is full of internal rhymes and clever similes, such as "Salt and pepper beezys they see me and scream 'what-a-man!'/ Never love her but-I-cut her, she stutter like [?]." Overall, "Midwest Explosion" is a high-energy, fast-paced tribute to the region that birthed these talented rappers.

Words can't describe how proud I am ( as a Missouri resident ) of rappers like you, Stevie and the rest of the Strange Music gang for keeping real rap alive and putting out great rap. I'm a metal head, but I come to Strange when I'm feeling something a little more fun lol. Keep up all of the hard work. Much love from Southwest Missouri! 🤘🖤
@DemitriNevo
I love all my dudes from the Midwest as a Midwesterner too it's great to see em out here getting it.

@melissacard4
How is Stevie stone not at the top of everything? He sounds like an OG!
@SilentJohn77
Saw Stevie at a Tech concert yesterday and Stone impressed, nailed his performance. And I was fortunate to meet him at a diner across the street where he was eating and he is a good guy. Stevie Stone jumped up my ranks!
@Snoopie916
Am I the only one who loves that in the last hook Brotha Lynch appears when Stevie says West and that after all the years and records he still supports the youngins in the game even if it means they get the spotlight then again I guess being a creator of an entire genre of rap music and an O.G not only in Sac-Town but in the whole West Coast and having pretty much a cult following means he wont be falling off anytime soon. Much love to Lynch keepin Siccmade and Garden Blocc all day
@lightwaves808
This tune still bangs as hard as the day you made it. I dig the video style. Also think the balance of chopping and course is well thought out. Much love
@desireebrumer8237
