Ms. Toi - Since 1973 Lyrics

I am Hip Hop
Since Nineteen Seventy Three
I am
I am Hip Hop
Since Nineteen Seventy Three
I am Hip Hop
Born when Hip Hop was born
Cook County Hospital
Windy City peak of a storm
February in a Black History form
Since Nineteen Seventy Three giving you more
Made a big impact from way back
Southside chick house parties with the tape deck
I would do my dance and earn a bunch of respect
Protected by my Uncles when I came across them rejects
On the porch yawning until the early morning
To the store to get whatever Granny wanted
Memories with yall going always keep me going
They can't see the progress and still I keep growing
Coming from the Chi the Southside of Chi
That's how yall got Ms. Toi
Trail blazed my way through this industry
And it all started back in Seventy Three
I am Hip Hop
Since Nineteen Seventy Three
I am
Hey hey Southern Cali
That's where I really got it going
Pushed through the City jumped on the highway
Fresh out of school when I hit the industry
First song with Ronnie Devoe and Moe Z
Keila
Did the song Lifestyles of the Rough and the Sexy
Worked with the cream of the crop
My voice is heavy got to the chips with my
Poker face ready
Linked with Mr. Tan and we started us a duo
Took over a group and we went and got some deals
Did a major hook been keeping up the Mills
Universal shit I ain't never stood still
Progress is a must in the Ville for real
I am Hip Hop same age not a drill
Nowadays ain't the same ain't trying to live
Pay attention you going see the reason why I'm here
I am Hip Hop
Since Nineteen Seventy Three
I am
I am Hip Hop
Since Nineteen Seventy Three
I am Hip Hop
Yea I am Hip Hop and I've even been blessed
To Grace the stage with Roxanne Shante and
MC Sha Rock some of the first Females in Hip Hop
You know what I'm saying
The memories I've created with just a dream has been incredible
To me
So I keep dreaming and Manifesting my Dreams look everyday
And that's why this self titled album Ms. Toi is just for you
So you can get to know me a little bit better
But please stay tuned I'm still not finished
And shout out to the Founders
I am Hip Hop
Since Nineteen Seventy Three
I am
I am Hip Hop
Since Nineteen Seventy Three
I am Hip Hop
