Whatever Happened To The DJ - Bliss n Eso

What ever happened to the DJ

Have you seen him?

Shit, people treat him like he in a museum

Acting like he ain’t built this bitch

With the 1—2—3, like this

We jumped on a plane and we flew to America

First tour there, and we were new to the area

Hit every state and saw a lot of shows

Supposedly the home of hip-hop, well I don’t know

‘Cause we saw a ton of rappers but it totally seems strange That every single

one of them was missing a DJ

But if you’re missing a DJ

Then you’re pretty much a karaoke singer, man, and that’s on the real mate

What happened to the cuts?

What happened to the mix?

What happened to the juggle?

What happened to the tricks?

Shit!

The DJ was the god damn man

In hip-hop he’s a good damn band

Now kids these days, part of the new school

You ask them about Kool HERC, they be like Kool- Who?

Ah well, there ya go

Shit, Angel Haze hadn’t heard of Biggie till a couple fucking years ago

Fuck CDJ’s, stop being absurd

Real DJ spins, 33 and a third

Yeah, let’s give hope to the people

Save the culture, bring the dope through the needle

What ever happened to the DJ

Have you seen him?

Shit, people treat him like he in a museum

Acting like he ain’t built this bitch

With the 1, 2, 3, like this

DJ, where’d he go?

People act like they don’t know

It all started from scratch, let’s set it straight

With a kick and a snare, yeah, them’s the breaks

«Izm»

Damn right, better give me lee-way

‘Cause I don’t go nowhere without my Dj

Yeah, B.n.E handle the rap

And DJ Izm is «the man on the wax»

Turntables get blessed when you touch it

‘Cause all you do on the daily is cut sick

Don’t believe me?

Watch and see

The whole crowd shit bricks when he drops the beat

Yeah, that’s how it makes you feel

Sucker DJ can’t fake the real

It’s pretty hard to find a true mastermind

Like Q-Bert, A-Trak or Mix Master Mike

«Yo DJ,» can you play my track?

«Yo DJ,» you know where it’s at

«Yo DJ,» you got balls like boulders

«Smacking ya head dead off ya motherfucking shoulders»

«Go and do some stupid shit»

Ayo, Izm man can I have a tickle on the tech, please?

«Don't touch the turntable» «Yeah»

«Don't touch the record» Why not, mate?

«You're going to ruin it» Alright then, you ready?

«Now you’re ready to go?»

«I'm ready to go

Now come on, crank this mother fucker up»
