[Intro: Rapper Big Pooh]
Uh, !llmind, Median, Rapper Pooh, Phonte
I know y'all been waitin' a long time for this right here, man (Long time)
Uh, here we go, uh
[Verse 1: Rapper Big Pooh]
This here, it had to be expected
Pooh attack mics like a can of disinfectant
My drive has been resurrected
With this ill shit that !llmind injected
This game is about to get hectic
LB is here, you must accept it
'Cause too often, people try to sleep on the kid
I'm sick with it, can't you hear the paper coughin'?
Hot nigga like I'm walkin' down Slauson
Middle of the day, no shade, people pausin'
Rubber neckin', Huey's in the street on my feet
West Coast is ready to overdose this
Hopeless, hocus pocus that we call music
And y'all niggas can quote this
I wrote this on a sunny afternoon
Laid back in my room, y'all niggas can hold this, uh
[Hook: Phonte & Rapper Big Pooh]
So loud, so clear (So clear)
Ain't no better place than right here (Right here)
Say yeah (Aw, yeah)
'Cause ain't no better space and ain't no better place than right here
Let the people say
So loud, so clear (So clear)
Ain't no better place than right here (Right here)
Say yeah (Aw, yeah)
'Cause ain't no better space and ain't no better place than right here
Let the people say
(Check it out, uh)
[Verse 2: Phonte]
Still gettin' it
Still got work to do, without no fringe benefits
And sayin', "Phonte ain't rippin' it"
That's oxymoronic like Icy Hot or ABB Distributing
I mean, it's taken me a little bit to get my life in my rhymes
Now everybody wonder how
The Phonte, Big Pooh and 9th Wonder sound
Got that 'cause we got on tracks but ain't give 'em the run around
Very respectable
Made y'all raise the decibels
At a time when hip hop was so destitute (C'mon)
Now everybody claimin' that they gonna spark it
Tryin' play Gregory Hines and Tap into this market
And the thought is so sickenin'
'Cause them rhymes stored in they memory banks just ain't holdin' no interest
But I go with my feelin'
And even if I had to go independent
The Tay still gonna flow with a vengeance
You better tell 'em
[Hook: Rapper Big Pooh]
So loud, so clear (So clear)
Ain't no better place than right here (Right here)
Say yeah (Aw, yeah)
'Cause ain't no better space and ain't no better place than right here
Let the people say
So loud, so clear (So clear)
Ain't no better place than right here (Right here)
Say yeah (Aw, yeah)
'Cause ain't no better space and ain't no better place than right here
Everybody say
[Bridge: Darien Brockington]
Hey
There's no place I'd rather be
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh
[Verse 3: Median]
Ayo, Median is out the box
What a fox here
Flier than a seagull, we gone with the wind
Crews doomed to lose, we was born to win
The league's so official so I run with them
Shout out the pioneers that paved the wiggy
Made the jiggy
Engraved their name 'pon the city
I embrace my cultures fame, so committed
This is hip-hop diddish
I was born to live it
Engulfed to abyss, so deeply I'm short winded
The art is my action
Syllables are friction
Others use words to speak, it's much bigger
My pattern of speech is relief to the listener
My swagger in my speech I release to deliver
Them sunbeams that visit me from the above sender
Couldn't fathom a breach with a gift such as this one
Gotta gather my speech to complete the mission, to complete the mission
[Hook: Phonte, Rapper Big Pooh & Median]
So loud, so clear (So clear)
Ain't no better place than right here (Right here)
Say yeah (Aw, yeah)
'Cause ain't no better space and ain't no better place than right here
Let the people say
So loud, so clear (So clear)
Ain't no better place than right here (Right here)
Say yeah (Aw, yeah)
(Aw, yeah)
'Cause ain't no better space and ain't no better place than right here
Let the people say
[Outro: Median & Darien Brockington]
Yes
No place I'd rather be
No place I'd rather be
Oh, yeah
Oh
[Spoken: S1]
Oh, man, a lot of producers that's doin' their thing
Comin' with it these days, man
Gotta give it up to JD Dilla, the man on the beats
Dude is a genius
Loving Hi-Tek
Hi-Tek is...
Anything I hear from Hi-Tek, it just waves me
Uh, love Nottz
Kanye doin' his thing
Dr. Dre is definitely innovatin' this hip-hop thing
Uh, lot of people sleep on one of my favorite producers out from the West Coast, gotta give it up to Battlecat
Man, everything I hear from Battlecat like... ridiculous
It's core-changing in this whole arrangement, but this stuff is just like amazin'
So, gotta give it up to these people, man
These the people that paved the way
That inspired the motivators
