Jam On It lyrics To all my people in the back jam on it {Right} To all my people in the front jam on it {ha ha, ha ha} To all my people on the side jam on it {he he, he he, right} So jam on it, say what
[Mos Def] The sweet old beats my speech radiates I grab the mic my voice resulates and penetrates I make the "B-Boy" emulate A buck-fifty still swinging like a heavyweight Me and the lounge about to levitate You don't believe let me demonstrate The way we make cats disintegrate
[Voice] Well hold up you got to stop the tape You got to prove you can rock the bricks Me and my man going to investigate The whole way that you operate, cooperate And what's your name? {Mos Def} And where you from? {Brooklyn} And how you living {Very well, very well} Damn you had to say it twice? {That's right} So you nice? {Damn right}
[Mos Def] I rock the party all night all night {All right, all right} So why you over here ripping with me? Trying to prove you position to me? {Some cats ain't equiped to MC} But you can see I'm different "G" The universal magnificently I rock the party eficiently From the Brooklyn but centered to (?) And I do it so lyrically That you got to give it to me Like Rick James, I kick game and spit flame Burning rappers all up out their frame We get into this vein From Brownsville all the way down to Brisbean {Damn this brother's flow is insane} That's what I've been trying to explain Got no time to play games Keep it coming like the next train Make the party people exclaim Whenever they hear my name They go "Mos Def" Oh yes my style is so fresh Guranteed to win any MC contest Old school like the eighty-four fresh dress You spend you assets to get my cassette Now that's fresh, the red hook address Make a cop jealous swell like abscess I'm shoutin' bigs up to Medina and the rest Bout' to drop it on your block a high on the press
[Chorus with singing in backround] I said people in the front jam on it {Say what, say what} To all my people in the back jam on it {Say what, say what} To all my people on the side jam on it {Ha ha, ha ha} Jam on it, Ha ha, ha ha
To all my people in the front jam on it To all my people in the back jam on it To all my people on the side jam on it So jam on it, ha ha, ha ha
[Mos Def] You see my name is Mos Def and my style will never pest Brown skinned body-rocking MC I got the black zodiac and you know it's never whack Sagitarius definatley You see it's me and lyricist and we're getting serious about to make another hit I tell your homeboy chill cuz' his style ain't ill but it's straight up counterfeit You see I'm fast or bent or sweet then bullet and when I'm on the set All the hip-hop fans just raise they hands because the one and only mighty Mos Def You see I come into the party in a "B-Boy" stance I rock the mic so viciously So all the real "B-boys" and real "B-Girls" never know others better than me
[Voice] I said hey Mos Def you can't steal the show You ain't the only MC out here with flow I'm the Pro-Castro and I'm letting you know That I get on the mic and go toe to toe
[Mos Def] Well cool young brother and just slow you role Cuz' your arm's to shook to have mic control See I get on the mic and jump off your case You best get out my face and stay in a child's place
[Voice] See I get on the mic because I know I can And I'm fresher than you because I know I am So when I jump on the stage you better step back Because your name is Mos Def but your really Mos Whack
[Mos Def] Uh listen up little brother you ain't grown The sun is going down you need to take you butt home And come outside with your whack freestyl
