about

This one was originally over a beat by I.G. Culture, for the IGYG project. The original is one of the "things we lost in the fire" - hard drive corrupted, music gone, lesson learned. Back it up!

This beat by Tall Black Guy is just right for this though. It's off his Hollyweird tape. He's really one of the strongest and most promising beat-makers and producers around in hip-hop right now. I've recently had the privilege to get to know him in person, thanks to him being a First Word label-mate (shout out to DJ Gilla for that, of course). He's been super cool with me. He doesn't let people just jump on his beats that often so I was really chuffed that he let me mess with this. Hoping to do some original music with him soon ... look out for that ...

P.S. Vroom, vroom, VROOOOOOOM!

Shout out to my man Scott Dixon. Congratulations on winning the championship bro.

lyrics

YO I'm a spit that FLOW that'll rip that SHOW man it's easy as tic "tic" tac "tac" TOE
I'm a get that DOUGH I'm a get cash FLOW you got a problem with it let "let" that "that" GO
It's my time to shine right now
LET IT GO
Yge Climb into the limelight now
LET IT GO
You ain't ready to pick up the pace then LET IT GO yo ....

On your marks set race
Now lets see who's the faster
Either make haste or Make space for the master
Can't take the pace I'll be moonwalking past ya
Now you're ...
Face to face with a smooth talkin bastard
How you like that Life in the fast lane
You might as well be right back at the start again
Four-wheel-drive moving over harsh terrain
while you amble down a country lane
GIVE IT UP switch gears on em SHIFT EM UP
Double that speed PICK IT UP PICK IT UP
I'm a do rappers like Michael Schumacher
Wanna beat me to the line then move backwards
The speed racer, the dream chaser
Choke on my exhaust fumes and eat vapours
Drive with my eye on the prize I need papers
Ride or die by the side see ya laters!

YO I'm a spit that FLOW that'll rip that SHOW man it's easy as tic "tic" tac "tac" TOE
I'm a get that DOUGH I'm a get cash FLOW you got a problem with it let "let" that "that" GO
It's my time to shine right now
LET IT GO
Yge Climb into the limelight now
LET IT GO
You ain't ready to pick up the pace then LET IT GO move aside bruv give up the race and LET IT GO

Yo, Pit stop for a minute...
And then I'm off I'm a win it
You know the kid's in pole position
I'm in the Grand Prix while you're riding a donkey
That's off key but you know it's the truth
Go through the roof every time I flow in the booth
And I told you before, Essa bad with the pen and pad
Cup's up for grabs when i see the chequered flag
Lemme rev it Up a little more and start tearing up the flippin floor
open up like a swinging door
UH Show them punks what I'm in it for
It's Immature but I just wanna win it all
Clock's ticking , ya better think fast
Essa swing past and you're left in an impasse
Your big chance is getting slim fast like fat people ... now that's diesel

Yungun London, UK

It's not your typical rap sheet. Born in a leafy suburb, educated at a prestigious boarding school and qualified as a city lawyer. But somewhere along the way (under former name Yungun) Essa became a key figure in UK hip-hop's "golden era" with shameless party joints, cryptic love songs, bilingual Spanglish wordplay and soul-searching escapism, earning nods from the likes of Nas and Mark Ronson. ... more
