Lyrics

1st Quarter - The Commentary

Welcome to hip-hop culture

Where DJ-ing, MC-ing, graffiti art, breaking

And the philosophies are expressed everyday

Within the inner cities of America, and the world

You are not doing hip-hop;

You ARE hip-hop

Love yourself and your expression; you can't go wrong
