Mad Skillz - The Rap Up 2004 lyrics

(Time keeps on slipping...slipping...slipping)

(GET DOWN)

Yeah...Ha

It's ya boy Skillz ya'll with the facts fa sho

Back to recap 2004

Now, things started out cool and plain

Till Janet whipped her boob at the Super Bowl game

I know the girl moves in cycles

But I never thought a nipple could make the whole world forget about Michael

And rap needed something fresh

In comes Mr. "Jesus Walks" Kanye West

We got him and Mel to thank Jesus Walks

Yeah, after "The Passion" Jesus walked to the bank

And every week, a different hurricane hit

If you ain't have a Blackberry then you prolly had a Sidekick

The gay governor came out and quit

And erybody and they mother had a Black Album remix

?'s was the kicks

And even white people started saying "I'm Rick James, Bitch"

American Idol was dumb

Was I the only one that got sick of seeing William Hung?

Fantasia won, don't get it confused

But with a mouth that huge, how could she lose?

Usher confessed again

If Chili wanted a comeback she shoulda made a record then

Paris Hilton's sex tape got watched

And once they got cold all she said was "That's hot"

Rap made a lot of CREAM

LL came back, looking like he was 16

Mase came back too, did ya'll peep it?

What's funny is he prolly made more money preaching

Shyne was supposed to be the truth

Yo Po, next time ya album comes out, you should come out too

Kobe had a little luck

But here's a fashion tip for the guys, no more button ups

White Tees I spare

Ain't they like 50 for a dollar? They ain't goin nowhere

Who had a Livestrong bracelet? I did

Sad part is you prolly don't even know where yours is

The U.S. B-Ball team got sliced

Roy Jones got his ass kicked twice

Rappers couldn't behave

Tony Yayo came out and went back in a couple of days

Wanna throw up what you ate?

Picture Bridget Nielson in a hot tub with Flavor Flav

Lil Flip came at TI

And then Shaq came at me but I ain't sure why

But I crushed the dude

The day he beats me that'll be the day he won't mumble in his interviews

Lets get serious for a second

Who thought Fherenhite 9/11 would change the election?

For a minute though, voting was fly

And everybody had a shirt that said "Vote or Die"

Seen on everybody from 50 to Jigga

Newsflash to Puff, shirts didn't work nigga

The election was scary

Don't front, don't you feel bad for John Kerry?

For a sec he was a star

Now he prolly in a bar wishing Oprah had given him a car

Dave Chappelle made a lot of cake

Mary Kate Olsen proved money can't buy you weight

Beyonce was on fire

Hottest show on TV? Hands down that would have to be The Wire

Can't believe Stringer got killed

I been to B-More trust me, The Wire is real

If you lip syncing do it well

Ashley Simpson made a fool of herself on SNL

Advice to the kids, don't chance it

Sumpthin go wrong in ya life, screw it start dancing

And designers were snoring

Couldn't do nothing with white tees so we started putting pictures on em

Red and Meth Show was put to rest

Dummy Move of the Year tho? Ron Artest

We all watching like, "Damn you believe this man,"

"Just put his hands up and swung on a fan?"

The nutshell, I'mma make it clear

Ron Artest spent 5 mill on half a cup of beer

Jealousy could be a sickness

Don't believe me? ask Jay-z, he could be a witness

Started out as The Best of Both Worlds

Ended with pepper spray and Kelly about to earl

Ayo Kells, that was whack fam

In some ways you remind me of an old black man

You know how they blame stuff on the white man?

He took it up a notch and blamed it on the white lightning man

Martha Stewart hit the pen

Britney got married, got divorced and got married again

And some rappers couldn't lose

They sold everything from booze to clothes to shoes

And some of ya'll don't think

I'm from the hood dogg, we don't buy energy drinks

So take that, rewind it back

Usher had the biggest hit with Lil Jon on the track

If not that, it was Joey Crack

Cuz even slow old people was trying to Lean Back

Matthew Knowles I know it hurt your heart

When Michelle fell on 106 and Park

Sad case, no doubt

How you fall on TV the day that ya album come out?

And here's a winner for sure

They say Young Buck tried to stab a boy at the Vibe Awards

Dre, he kept it gully Doc

Buck earned his spot, he should be all over The Detox

And ya'll prolly askin yaself

Who is this dude thats talkin bout everybody else?

And that question is the worst one

I'm Skillz homeboy, I'm the dude that made the first one

And Imma keep doing me

R.I.P. to Rick James, Ray Charles and the ODB

I said I wouldn't do a Rap Up but I lied

So what the hell? Happy New Year Double 0- 5
