Tonedeff Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's the marksman, armed with bars that scar from yards in
Foul-mouth Latino, the Dark-skin Cartman
Startling frauds, Skin 'em for probable cause
Spit and I topple the gods, gimme applause, when my part starts to resolve
Hearts'll dissolve because my love's acidic
I'm urgin a bum to mimmick this
surgical tongue precision I'll burn him for fuckin with it
Your sternum gets punched in and it's crushed to ribbons
I snuff these timid thugs in denim
with tons of gimmicks of drugs & women, I'm done beginning
I hunt for limits and I snipe 'em
Hung Mother Nature, from the family tree
now Father time thinks I don't like him
Let's try some Isometric points of view
Why do decrepit boys like you lie and profess their flow's improved?
When I be rippin' it better than any of you can - regularly
So, why don't you just give up?
Cause most of y'all niggaz will never get better than me
I'm indedbted to these cats like QN5 that set examples
With original flows, over these digital lows and snare samples
There's ample proof, we're hard to take
It's evident when cats tremble in our presence
like epileptics doing the Harlem Shake
Your ART is fake, and it's troubling, yo
There's kids who think the underground just started with Company Flow
Now we're stuck with these shows
With 14-year olds and poser herbs
Claiming their emcees, dropping their fumbled attempts at spoken word
Who don't deserve the recognition, but they'll take it
Cause when you had the chance and you didn't say shit..you embraced it
It's a basic truth, The Plague's the crew
We're that anxious group of tasteless dudes
that come to your show and can't wait to boo
Cause you overdo it, you feel me yet?
Rocking a doorag with a headband and a cap that was fitted for Timmy's head
You silly bitches, it's time for the detox
Copycat rappers act like you got stock options at Xerox
You're shocked like you never planned to get caught?
Ignorant dick, don't know if Neptunes a planet or not
Faggots! You're hot under the collar
like catholic fathers with they hands on their cocks
Asking a kid if he's a fan of the rock
I demand that you watch me, dismantle your block
See, I can't ever stop because man never thought
That he would develop a gift that would give him
an understanding as he was taught
We've amassed the assault




leave your ashes dissolved from burning
QN5 Motherfucker, Tonedeff is the name - learn it!

Overall Meaning

In "TNT," Tonedeff presents himself as a skilled and confident emcee who is unafraid to call out others for their lack of talent and authenticity. He introduces himself as a marksman who can harm his enemies with the lyrics he spits from a distance. He dismisses other emcees who try to imitate his style or claim to have improved upon it, asserting that he is consistently better than any of them. Tonedeff is especially critical of those who try to pass themselves off as underground or independent artists, but who are really just posers or copycats with no real talent or originality. He accuses them of devaluing the art form and disrespecting the real pioneers of hip-hop. Despite these harsh criticisms, Tonedeff also shows a deep appreciation for those who have set a high standard for hip-hop and who continue to push the boundaries of the genre. He recognizes the importance of originality, authenticity, and skill, and he sees himself as part of a larger movement to uphold these values in the face of mediocrity and fakery.

He's easily easiest to understand among the fast rappers too.

chris savage

2018 still rocking this

Freedom1776

2022 and still here

mzane175

Tonedeff is a no gimmicks MC. He hit 13 syllables a second. I have only heard maybe 2 or 3 others do that. Many can but he sounds good at that speed too. It's not all about speed but flow man, Tonedeff isn't huffin and puffin when he spits.

Danish Abro

Most fast rappers are shit since they can't really rhyme more than one syllable. This guy is fast, got his own swag, flow, tight ass delivery and dope lyrics. And don't forget his deep ass punchlines.

SubMegatron

No one has the syllable placement and technical skill of Tonedeff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BabyBoiQue

I would put him down as the fastest, check out Velocity. But the thing about him is he actually has LYRICS not just a fast rapper.

crescentbrooks

so fire!!

Nate Carman

i love tonedeff, and agree hes one of the best out there. but when talkin of syllable placement and check out Qwaazar (Qwa) of Typical Cats (Qwazaar, Denizen Kane, and Qwel)

757 ToMunjoy

I completely agree on all the points you brought up. And he hasn't put out a single track that I haven't enjoyed.
