J A Y E L E C T R O N I C A - Jazzmatazz (Guru Tribute)

[@shimonodragon]

This is a "Guru Tribute" because Jay's opening comes from Gang Starr's track "The Planet" from the LP Hard to Earn. "Out in B-R-double-O-K-Lyn the planet" RIP Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal!!!

Martin Luther king jr.

Premier did it

[@sideshw1940]

That intro though

[@litosway9875]

MLK sets the tone for this Song so crazy!! You feel the everything he saying when he said “I just want to do Gods will” 🔥🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Then Jay laced it with crazy bars

[@ZuluMason]

2023 South Africa still listening to this classic. Jay Elec could make timeless music like 2pac if he gets in his pocket of spirituality and philosophy let the rest of them suckers make stupid music, we are about realness here.

[@waxmaster-c]

The beat is from the intro to Group Home's Livin' Proof album from '95 (prod. DJ Premier). The sample is a Wes Montgomery cover of The Beatles - Yesterday 🤯

Which one any one , the outcome no doubt done, Billie jean rockin cement 4s headed to the flight club, so it's either pitch dubs til dawn or pitch my well intentions at the night club tryina get a tight rub, easy to see who meant well and its just as easy to be demented, ask cecil b. Who easily repented still get wet just from breath mints or mention of the best men in the trenches, I'll give em a solid hand job no wrenches and sweat til the 6th man checks in, no benches still uncertain of how to act, so pretend this is some stupendous rhyme lifting rockin to a beat stoupe presented,while we all on the stoup getting stupid bent kid, jack custaeu couldn't stoop thru this wreckage, so jack Kerouac won't be taking that tech gig, its nasty dunks nothing less than perfection nothing looped or edit, let off rounds of disrespect when they come thru to collect credit for the message or the vessel ship I spit game for the essence blessed we stress unless that comes with chips to Rick flair we represent, peter vecsey. Kick aim rearrange pain, leo messi. Strictly domestic yet I'll make my way towards customs just to declare that I'm the shit yo, fleeting testies. leave em crunched n wrapped up, blue feelin Nestle

Absolute mind blowing choice of words.......this is no rapper......this is a poet writing true poetry to a beat......mlk sample was awesome....boom,bash,dash I had to break I had to get away,pack my bags heading for greyhound......my style is like a shot of jack daniels

[@bishop-9799]

Jazzmatazz Lyrics [Verse 1] Boom-bash dash I had to break, I had to get away Packed my bags, headed for Greyhound and it was a Monday Time to start my mission, I felt that burning feeling in my soul I had to listen I had this reoccurring dream from the stage, in a suit with a fade I had set the game a-blaze, and they threw me a parade I stacked a little change and took my family out the caves But I was trapped in a maze like a lab rat And at the bottom of the barrel, where they keep the crabs at No Geico, no Aflac, nothing to fall back on But the streets where niggas cussed out the police and sold they're crack on Better known as back home, where they treat the Arabs, and the Spanish, and the Blacks wrong, there he go with that song You may be tired, but I spit what I'm inspired, from the Lord of the worlds, cause the devil is a liar [Chorus] Say say, I've seen the lightning flashing (yes I did) And I've seen the thunder roll But you can't (you can't keep me down for long) Cause I'm getting stronger (cause I keep getting stronger, oh yeah) [Verse 2] Here we go My style is like a shot of Jack Daniels, a baby grand piano Lighting a hop, smoking a cig, strumming on a banjo The son of man's a song of a gun with hella ammo The sheriff shootin Bob Marley, John J. Rambo 6 sextillion, 19 million, the holy pyramid say we all a lost children Voodoo for the pilgrims who bring weapons and conceal em Then silence you with force, and then indoctrinate the children Yo Gabba Gabba, Ahmadinejad will Blow up your apartment if you don't observe the Sabbath I look the devil in his eyes, say Abracadabra Then drown him in the mighty light, his brain couldn't fathom Scrappin every day, just like Fight Club A Thriller and a Smooth Criminal, just like Mike was [Chorus] Say say, I've seen the lightning flashing (yes I did) And I've seen the thunder roll But you can't (you can't keep me down for long) Cause I'm getting stronger (cause I keep getting stronger, oh yeah)

MLK was spitting bars

[@bklynbam1978]

Honestly he was. This is the speech he gave in Tennessee on the day before he was killed. Notice how he’s saying “I may not get there with you” and “Like anybody, I would like to live a long life…but I’m not worried about that now.”
