MCA rhyme

[cj hood]

What would you say is the most memorable MCA hip hop quote/rhyme?

[Kid Presentable]

Obviously pretty subjective, but one of the most resonant has always been from 'Do It'. Every wall that I face is of my own design. I try to apply this understanding daily, and have done since I first heard it.

[cj hood]

Every time I think of one I think of something better....I want to put it on a shirt

[The Ron]

There are too many...but today I kept singing
"non stop on the top and you clock when we rock never fakin no mistakin we be making hip hop"...

[Kid Presentable]

I'm MCA I got nothing to prove

[FLO MASTER]

"im a man that needs no introduction: ive got a big tool of reproduction"

[Kid Presentable]

^haha (y)

[alexandra_]

I am one with myself as I turn to The
I prefer the dreams to reality

Every thought in the mind is a planted seed
So watch the mind or the thoughts will stack
Before you know it they're boomeranging on back

And all of Namasté, it's just amazing.

[laurie_hammy]

Ya shoulda nevr started somethin ya couldnt finish,
cause writing rhymes to me is like Popeye to spinach,
im bad ass move your fat ass cause ya wack son,
DANCIN AROUND LIKE YA THINK YA JANET JACKSON

[laurie_hammy]

An extremely sad one now that I heard today from "And Then I".


One thing that is good to know is Adam lived a full life an he appreciated his life.


Hug my Loss
Brush her teeth
Read her books
Put her to sleep
Pack her lunch
Drive her to school
Head to the studio turn on the Pro-tools

[Turchinator]

My name is MCA and I still do what I please

[beasties#1fan]

"im a man that needs no introduction: ive got a big tool of reproduction"
Thats adrocks fuckin lyric.

[Micodin]

I feel good to play a little music.
Tears running down my face because I love to do it.

Damn, that's good.

I posted this one to my facebook last night from Bod Vow:

If Others Disrespect Me Or Give Me Flack
I'll Stop And Think Before I React
Knowing That They're Going Through Insecure Stages
I'll Take The Opportunity To Exercise Patience

[YoungRemy]

If it don't hurt nobody else
Don't be afraid to be yourself
special dedication and so on
To all lifestyles sizes shapes and forms

[willis drummond]

I don't see things quite the same as I used to
As I live my life I've got just me to be true to
And when I find that I don't know about
Just what to do
I turn and look within to see what I should do
Now I'm not sure what it takes to be hip
A lot of people making music that to me ain't shit
So I ask creation
For rhymes for this jam
Gimme lickle solo and I'll take the mic stand

[YoungRemy]

I Give Thanks For This World As A Place To Learn
And For This Human Body That I know I've Earned

[JohnnyChavello]

Too sweet to be sour; too nice to be mean.

[laurie_hammy]

Never though about that one. Fuckin perfect.

[overman]

deluded as the next guy
pretending and hoping to find
that distant peace of mind;
there is no other worthy quest
so on I go

Things I know now years ago I couldn't touch;
for when i trust myself, I fear no one else

I'm cool as a cucumber in a bowl of hotsauce

[Sir SkratchaLot]

My favorite:

If you can feel what I'm feeling then its a musical masterpiece
If you can hear what I'm dealing with then that's cool at least
what's runnin' through my mind comes through in my walk
True feeling are shown from the way that I talk

So dope.

[Turchinator]

it ain't what you say, it's what you mean
intention leads to action that is my theme

[alexandra_]

Pass me the scalpel, I'll make an incision
I'll cut off the part of your brain that does the bitching
Put it in formaldehyde and put it on the shelf
And you can show it to your friends and say that's my old self

[abbott]

so many, the one that comes to me right now...


“I wanna say a little something that’s long overdue / The disrespect to women has got to be through.”

[M.C. Guevera]

"A Year And A Day". All of it.

[sab0tage]

My name is MCA and I still do what I please

Second that. It's been going round and round my head the past couple of days.

[cj hood]

i'm going with 'to try to change the world i'm a plot and scheme'....i'm getting a price on the shirts now...

[verynate]

MC for what I say and do,
the A is for Adam and the lyrics true.

[MCAadROCKMiKEd7]

"A Year And A Day". All of it.

Absolutely.

"I've got depth of perception in my text y'all, I get props at my mention cause I vex y'all" "If you feel what I'm feelin then it's a musical masterpiece, hear what I'm dealin with well that's cool at least what's runnin through my mind comes through in my walk true feelings are shown from the way that I talk" "but little do you know about somethin that I talk about I'm tired of drivin it's due time that I walk about but in the mean time I'm wise to the demise, got eyes in the back of my head so I realize" "if you try to knock me you'll get mocked, I'll stir fry you in my wok" "Im flowin pros to cons and cons to pros" "over and over I fall I learn to walk from a crawl it's not sad it's just the way and the purpose of it all" soo many.

I've been posting all this on my iPod it's a lot of work to type lol

[3DayOldBeer]

Im as cool as a cucumber in a bowl of hot sauce

I dont buy cheeba....I grow it

[Beastiefreak]

There are so many, great MCA rhymes. One of my favourites is from Putting Shame in Your Game, which is also my favourite Beastie Boys song:

Like a bird floating down on a New York breeze
Every thought in the mind is a planted seed
So watch the mind or the thoughts will stack
Before you know it they're boomeranging on back

[freetibet]

And when I'm on the mic - the suckers run!

[I play LTI over and over, because His unique voice/tune is best heard on that album, IMO. For a non-native listener, that is.]

[benchillin]

And when I'm on the mic - the suckers run!



i love this one also , I always thought of it as an answer to "Run" DMC's Sucka Mc's


but my imagination is like that.

[Taco Zip]

I'll stir fry you in my wok (y)

[Aeromosa]

(If you read my 1st post in "my adam yauch story" thread, you'll understand why this is my fave :D)

"I'm going out first class ain't going out coach!"

[RobMoney$]

If you feel what I'm feelin then it's a musical masterpiece.

[birdfloatindown]

Someone mentioned Yauch's lyrics in "Putting Shame In Your Game," which I also love, and took my user name from. One of Yauch's gems that always cracks me up, is his speech midway through "The Maestro":

"Aw yeah, I need a little bit of cooperation right about now. I'd like to find out whose favorite detective it is:

Is it Mannix?

Barnaby Jones?

Somebody say Colombo!

McMillan?

Is it Cannon?

Barnaby Jones...

...I said that already."

LMAO

[MCAadROCKMiKEd7]

Hahahaha! <3

[Aeromosa]

All I want to know is when is checkout time..So I could be in Heaven with the Rythm Rock Rhyme...

[3stooges]

A dope one would be, find a cool picture of the three of them, where MCA is out in front rhyming, and underneath it put the words:

Me and Adam and D were born to emcee




That says it all.

[laurie_hammy]

Cause you know Y-

A-U-C-H

Im takin all MC's out in the place

[BeesTea]

Love the way his voice emanates in this somewhat raunchy lyric:

My girl likes franks, not pork and beans,
I'm gonna wax that girl right out them jeans

But for some reason, this always speaks to me

Well I'm on 'til the crack of dawn
Mowing down M.C.'s like I'm mowing a lawn


Not an MCA lyric but I heard this tonight (TTFB is on rotation right now) and it got me to thinking:

Time to count MC's in this place to be
Not five, not four, not two, just three

[MCAadROCKMiKEd7]

(Adrock: "Tryna take what isn't yours like a goddamn rat)
Yauch: "See, I personally, I wouldn't wanna go out like that"



"I told her some rhymes and she pulled up her skirt" Haaa. Yauch you dog you!

[YoungRemy]

So Put Your Worries On Hold...
Get Up And Groove With The Rhythm In Your Soul

[JoLovesMCA]

Thanks for this thread. Still trying to finalize a lyric to go with my tattoo and this helps... It's so hard because so much of his rhymes are amazing. I want MCA on it too so I don't know how I am going to figure this shit out!

[beasties#1fan]

"I told her some rhymes and she pulled up her skirt" Haaa. Yauch you dog you!
LOLOL;)(y)

[Drusyc]

Ah... all of these are great.

Some TT5B love here though;

"I went to get a loan and they asked my race/ I wrote down "human" inside the space. It's a disgrace how they try to debase/ it ain't the banks' damn business how my lineage trace."


"don't test me, they can't arrest me, I'll fake right and cross-over shoot lefty."

haha.

[b-grrrlie]

If Others Disrespect Me Or Give Me Flack
I'll Stop And Think Before I React
Knowing That They're Going Through Insecure Stages
I'll Take The Opportunity To Exercise Patience
This was just about my mantra at one time

Too sweet to be sour; too nice to be mean.
MC for what I say and do,
the A is for Adam and the lyrics true.
Nice ones!

One that changed them from naughties to PC's:

I wanna say a little something that's long overdue
The disrespect to women has got to be through
To all the mothers and the sisters and the wives and friends
I wanna offer my love and respect to the end

yep-yep....totally Buddhist! Great, great lyrics in that one :)

[jennyb]

There's so many more profound MCA rhymes, but this one totally hit me off HSC2. I couldn't help but chuckle every single time it was dropped. From 'Crazy Ass Shit' --


I mean that's all I got, except I've just got...
Even Michael Diamond him never learn
Atop him head, him have a curly perm

[M.C. Guevera]

CHURCH

[cj hood]

I love that one as well....

[laurie_hammy]

...I never realized that was Yauch. :eek:

I didnt realise either, crazy.

[brooklyndust]

Over the years I've grown and changed so much
Things I know now, years ago I couldn't touch
There are things I've done that I wouldn't do again
But I'm glad that I did 'cause I learned from them
I just try to stay present, right here, right now
No worries, no fears, and without any doubts

And the true key is a trust in self
For when I trust myself, I fear no one else

[benchillin]

Barnaby Jones...

...I said that already."

LMAO

i got sharks teeth and tigers claws....

[Gabriely]

so many, the one that comes to me right now...


“I wanna say a little something that’s long overdue / The disrespect to women has got to be through.”

I thought the same ...

"To All The Mothers And Sisters
And The Wives And Friends
I Want To Offer My Love And Respect To The End"

[benchillin]

i don't see things quiet the same as i used to.

[laurie_hammy]

Yeah we got beef chief
We're knocking out teeth chief
An if ya don't believe us you should question your belief Keith

Just picking out some portraits I have and have them nicely designed. The girl that did my beastieboysgallery is going to work on a few things for me.

Like for example I am going to use of his lyrics and put it on a photo like this one: http://www.beastieboysgallery.com/displayimage.php?album=278&pid=2158#top_display_media

With your headphones strapped
You're rockin' rewind pause
Tryin' to figure out what you can do to go for yours
But like the pencil to the paper I got more to come
One after another you can all get some

Love that flow!
