Adept's definitions
A really good lyricist with good flow and breath control. Set the bar for a good LP when he dropped Illmatic, probably the best rap CD of all time. Fell back slightly when he dropped It Was Written in '96, but it still had some good songs. Nastradamus kinda sucked too, but Nasty Nas made a comeback with Stillmatic and God's Son. Then he went on 2004 to drop Street's Disciple, his first double disc CD. Yeah, and he shut Jay-Z down too.

The math, kings of light departed in wrath/So where you gonna stand when the Elohim return/Seven great stages throughout the ages say you burn/It's my turn to shine/I redefine the crystalline-biological structures, implanted in your mind/So I find the deaf, dumb and blind/And bless 'em with science, and leave the blind ones behind

Get the Canibus mug.Hip-hop is a way of life that started way back in the 80's. It has 4 important elements which are:
MCin/Rappin
DJin
Graffiti
Breakin
This way of life started in the Bronx and spread down to other boroughs. Towards the late 80's it spread all the way to L.A. especially Compton/South Central. This started angsta rap and after that was the bling-bling era (which is what is causin rap to crumble and is whats causin everybody to look at it badly). It sucks that people look at the shit on MTV/BET and judge rap and hip-hop to be shitty music and a shitty way to live. All i got to say is get off your asses and listen to some real rap music
