I never was any fond of listening any songs outside Soomaali ones, and the least being those of hip-hops. I however remember mid soo caanbaxday back in mid '90s in Nayroobi. Probably around 1994. Usually the video kanaanlka KTN laga soo deyn jiray frequently.

 

My younger brother ayaa aad u jeclaa, though myself weyba ii bixi jirtay.

 

I am not, though, sure if it can be considered 'hip-hop' since it is a reggae. It was the first and the last any hip-hop song I ever liked and listened to finish.

 

The song, a one-time hit wonder and popular one and sung by Ini Kamoze, was called "Here comes the Hotstepper," and the words go like:

 

Nah nana nana nanaa nah ...

 

Here comes the hotstepper, murderer

I'm the lyrical gangster, murderer

Pick up the crew in-a de area, murderer

Still love you like that, murderer

 

No no we don't die, yes we mul-ti-ply

Anyone test will hear the fat lady sing

Act like you know, Rico

I know what Bo don't know

Touch them up and go, uh-oh!

Ch-ch-chang chang

 

Here comes the hotstepper, murderer

I'm the lyrical gangster, murderer

Excuse me mister officer, murderer

Still love you like that, murderer

Extraordinary, juice like a strawberry

Money to burn baby, all of the time

Cut to fade is me, fade to cut is she

Come juggle with me, I say everytime

 

Here comes the hotstepper, murderer

I'm the lyrical gangster, murderer

Dial emergency number, murderer

Still love you like that, murderer

 

Nah, na na na nah ...

Nah, na na na nah ...

 

Start like a jackrabbit, finish in front of it

On the night is jack , that's it, understand?

I'm the daddy of the mack daddy

His are left in gold, maybe

Ain't no homie gonna play me, top celebrity man

Murderer, I'm the lyrical gangster, murderer

Excuse me mister officer, murderer

Still love you like that, murderer

 

No no we don't die, yes we mul-ti-ply

Anyone test will hear the fat lady sing

Act like you know, G go, I know what Bo don't know

Touch them up and go, uh-oh

Ch-ch-chang chang

 

Here comes the hotstepper, murderer

I'm the lyrical gangster, murderer

Pick up the crew in-a the area, murderer

Still love you like that, murderer

 

Nah, na na na nah ...

Nah, na na na nah ...

 

Here comes the hotstepper, murderer

I'm the lyrical gangster, murderer

Big up all crew bow ya, murderer

Still love you like that, murderer

Here comes the hotstepper, murderer

I'm the lyrical danger, murderer

Pick up the crew in-a the area, murderer

Still love you like that, murderer

 

Here comes the Hotstepper

I'm the lyrical gangster

I'm a live in-a me danger

Still love you like that

Hey, da da da da...

 

Since seeing it this last month, after a dozen years or so, boyish memories flooded like a stormed wabi. Waa wareey.

When was the last time you folks listened to this

 

Couldn't find my favorite Pete Rock & CL SMooth on youtube.

 

Pete Rock & Cl Smooth Lyrics

 

"Pete Rock & Cl Smooth - All The Places"

 

 

All the places and spaces I’ve been (repeat 4x)

 

[cl smooth]

Welcome to the zone where the strong only survive

Places I drive all the gangsters can’t stay alive

Take my universal journey through the jungles of the hardest town

Where my brothers lay their life down

You want something to play with?

Go find some toys when you mistake these grown men for little boys

More real than what is real so feel I’m sending

Compare the God with no beginning and we’ll have no ending

My blessed rings are down with the kings revalation

Had heard me on the run-dmc’s reincarnation

Child abuse, women loose, robbery and triple homicide

Every where this black man resides still

Check the monolouge, I’m on a 6 a.m. jog

To regain my powers, do a set before the showers

I’m prime for the summertime, the big time bowler

But any season or reason we can’t take it over

 

All the places and spaces I’ve been can you feel it? (repeat 6x)

 

Are you ready for the legendary crazy rugged ? ready war?

Known to be the smooth that sat by the door

Furthermore, for you and I to click, here’s the stats

Take all that dirty money, set the wash doors and laundromats

You love to gamble now we open an after-hours spot

20 sacks with the guiness for the jackpot

Members only, playing pool like willie marconi

With a tenderoni chatting about the gs I’m batting

I’m patting down with the sound of a general

Fully supplied by my ghettofied residential

We come to rebuild and turn off the heat now

Hoping we can take it back to yugenot street

Palled around the screen tv watching the fight

Tonight, cause if it ain’t rough it ain’t right

Ink tents in all of my circumference I connect

Now demanding all types of respect, can you dig it?

 

All the places and spaces I’ve been can you feel it? (repeat 6x)

 

Travelling the warp speed we come to the peak

Like a missle I probe and seek, many can’t critique

My physique is still solid, chiseled down to the very last compound

I’m trying that chin, fool, where you been?

Still sliding girls in as soon as pops fall asleep

His game tight, set to flip a shorty late night

I like rocks and groupies, condo shows and cuties

The hottest cars and the strongest drinks at the bars

This is one of those joints that make you stand by the exits

Cause every time I’m yapping something crazy happens

Keep my tool in my baggy jeans rolling with sneaker feet

Who got a life term working for the firm

My labor’s fruit off of business as usual

Plus my two clan band is making me a wealthy man

Now from where I stand, believe it’s not a game

Pete rock and c.l. smooth’s a household name

 

All the places and spaces I’ve been can you feel it? (repeat 6x)
