Audio Two - "Top Billin"




















[Sticking to the classics now, with a simple and timeless formula. A stripped-down beat and an MC who doesn't shut up for three minutes. The backing track is a weirdly off-step drum figure (created by Stetsasonic's Daddy-O when he mis-triggered a sample of The Honey Drippers' "Impeach The President"), there's a serious delay echo on the vocal... And that's it. Nothing more, nothing more needed. Perfect.]

(Check it out)
MC am I, people call me Milk
When I'm bustin' up a party I feel no guilt
Gizmo's cuttin' up for the
Suckers that's, down with me
The one of us, that's how I feel
To be down you must appeal
To The Two, we're rated R
We're gifted, and we're going far
Down the road, to the bank
While I'm here I'd like to thank
Mom and dad, they knew the time
Gizmo's scratching, Milk Dee's rhyming
Milk is chillin', Giz is chillin'
What more can I say? Top billin'
That's what we get, you got it, good
Since you understood, would you...

Stop scheming, and looking hard
I got a great big bodyguard
So step up if you wanna get hurt
Milk Dee's gonna pull this skirt
I get money, money I got
Stunts call me honey if they feel real hot
That's how it is, you can ask Giz
I stole your girl while you were in prison
Jail, for MC assault
You was jealous, it's all your fault
Milk is chillin', Giz is chillin'
What more can I say? Top billin'
That's what we get, you got it, good
And since you understood, would you...

Clap your hands, your hands you clap
If your girl's out of place it's your girl I slap
And if you're dumb, you'll ask why
I am from the Do-Or-Die
The Audio Two, the Two's Audio
I got a brother and his name's Gizmo
Milk is chillin', Gizmo's chillin'
What more can I say? Top billin'
That's what we get, got it good
And since you understood, would you...

Bite a rhyme, if you dare
I get the papers so I don't care
My contributions to this jam
Is confusing, because I am
Milk Dee, Milk Dee's dated all the way
The super easy mightiest MC okay
Yes I'm down, down by law
I get the girlies out on the floor
G is D, down is G
Two the at the top is where he'll be
That is us, call us odd
Girls come in, you won't be bored
Milk is chillin', Giz is chillin'
What more can I say? Top billin'
That's what we get, got it good
And since you understood, would you...

Do a dance, dance to Two
If you can dance it's easy to do
This dance is on and on and on
Dance until your breath is gone!

(Go Brooklyn! Go Brooklyn!)
