Kool Keith - White Label Test Press lyrics

Your rating:

[record company flunkie]

Yeah I don't think Keith's gonna show up to the meeting y'all

See Keith's the type of artist to do his own thing

There's no A&R out there that can tell him how to make a record

You can't tell him he needs to make something like everyone else

cause everyone else is just stealing his originality and ideas 

ANYWAY .. I think we should cancel the marketing meeting



[Kool Keith]

As a big secret, Kevin Glickman chill with Chris

Don't like Jeremy Lawner

So Ruffhouse politically had to freeze my album

Regular Columbia don't know what the hell is goin on

With a sheisty distribution switch behind my back

I worked on my album February last year

13 months, passed by, all I heard was a bunch of lies

Six weeks in ?? hawkin with a so-called manager

Univested, livin off my budget

My LP was completed before John Forte, Sporty Thievz and Pras

but too many secret fans had they hands in the pan

When I got to Philadelphia, everybody was waitin for me

with tracks with a bag full of unconceptual DAT's

Throwin me off, distractin me

?? ?? came out with programmin

Me on the basslines, all my beats were slammin

Nothin they could tell us

While everybody except Tim Devine was jealous

With my album leakin out to a bunch of critics

It was somethin stupid the record company

and the scam bookin agent, slash manager did

Dubbin my cassette for the industry, it got silly

Opinions from people who don't know jack about music

in the industry, know what?

Had to do the album practically over



[Chorus x4: Kool Keith]



This is a test press

White label test press



[Kool Keith]

Back like "Return of the Jedi"

While the average person critiquin my album

Most MC's look at me with red eyes

DJ's don't understand my sound is too new

He can't feel it on the felt; he say he'll make it a hit 

if I give him a Rolls Royce and a Versace belt

Take care of program directors

Yeah gonna call Billboard when y'all send them a Mustang Ford

Then buy a 20-page ad about Kool Keith headbands

Soap powder's in The Source, that'll get me the cover boss

Everybody's small

You're gonna have to buy video shows with washing machines

I got to step up to bat in 3 Rivers Stadium like the Yankees

in the World Series against the Big Red Machine

Y'all gotta make it work, every video producer

Y'all gotta send 'em a V-12

cause nobody wants the t-shirt at Urban Network

Big Truck productions need to hire 20 people on the phones

Callin retail; 90 foot pictures of me and my daughter

lifts on the side of the building

Half of these records are wack cause street teams get paid

to pull out wack snippet tapes out their wack backpacks

Get off early with a crew pile up in a suburban

Go to the clubs and get the flats and posters and start servin

Yeah



[Chorus x1.25]



[Kool Keith]

Yeah..
