mc serch was basically jus rhyme with skills · by Rafi Kam

Black cat is bad luck, bad guys wear black
musta been a white guy who started all that
make the Gas Face for those little white lies
my expression to the mountainous blue eyes
then form a face, and shake my skull cap
dismiss the myth, that evil is not black
but opposite spectrum, this done by red man
with horns on his head, laid down the ill plan
got all his helpers, said, make it snappy
tell all the people that their hair can’t be nappy
blonde and blue-eyed, or dark-skinned half a G*
a disease, created by leprosy
don’t speak of bleach, bend them to right
say, it was night WAY before the light
put aside spooks, Serch leaves a trace
I’ve set em correct with the effect of the Gas Face

Think about it.

*I’m suspicious of these lyrics from 3rdbass.net. I always thought it was “dark-skinned effigy”

  2. “dark-skinned effigy”

    it is dark-skinned effigy. 3rd Bass put out two dope ass albums, wish they’d put out a third…. who did the production on all their stuff?

  6. My wife still didn’t know who Dante Ross was on the judging, even though I pointed out to her that Serch says “Stop dissing Dante on records y’all” at the end of “Gas Face.” Poor Dante is faceless.

    Jus Rhyme couldn’t even be Serch on his WORST day.

  7. i think jus-skills=serch is an interesting idea, but i think you need to add a bit more insanity and fritos to the equation.

    jus-skills+fritos+insane eyes=mc serch

    serch was also able to discuss various topics while jus rhyme is simply obsessed with ending white supremacy. i am waiting for jus rhyme to snap like travis bickle

  8. “serch was also able to discuss various topics while jus rhyme is simply obsessed with ending white supremacy.”

    You’re obviously forgetting how much jus rhyme loves the hippity-hoppity! Also he hates police and snitches and he reps AR-15 to the fullest. Oh and he “just rhymes”.

    mmm, fritos.

  9. he does love it! someone has to get a screencap of his 15 anti racist principles that they threw up during the detroit ep.

  10. Serch could kick the political topics, but still talk about the beginnings of Hip Hop, freaking girls, and the like. Jus Rhyme couldn’t even do a “club record” when he was asked to.

    Also, I think if the 1989 Serch saw the 2007 Serch doing some of the ish on the show, he’s make a diss record about it.

  11. i doubt it. back in 89, serch was on point with the times. if you look at his dancers, then look at him, the only difference would be serch’s lack of melanin and his glasses. and today, he’s still with the times in terms of his dress, his speech, etc…

  12. One problem with that video of Pop Goes The Weasel is that they used ferrets in it. Ferrets aren’t weasels, they descend from the bolwevil (sp?) family.

  13. Man who cares that video was funny as fucking hell. It even inspired me to start the HardC.O.R.E. newsletter.
