Lyrics:
Let’s take it back to what we
what we love it at
How we could only do what we do
It’s the biggest
Uh, yeah, uh
Stefon Diggs, I need another bitch
I won’t stop spinning, go get another brick
She got on my plane to suck another dick
I spent a lot on my chain, so send the condiments
I took all the profits, you keep the compliments
Even on an empty stomach, full of confidence
King of the city, let’s build a monument
I’m richer than nigga, go read the finer prints
Yachts, boats, I’m the nigga spending the most
You niggas check the rehab when your single was slow
Fat Boy back, this ain’t rap money
I make you rap niggas come and rap for me (rap, nigga)
Helicopters coming, all my niggas deep (rap, nigga)
Feds know the mumble, so no need to speak
Where the bitches sellin’ pussy, put the kids to sleep
And I’m running with the steppers, nothing on my feet

Pardon my demeanor, I’m cleaner, sold out arenas
No love for the other side, fuck if the grass is greener
Get in the booth and team up, seen his temperature heat up
I just crank the machine up, married the game, prenup
Was born to be up, since a fetus I kick my feet up
Dude’s paid in full, look I could pull the receipt up
Me and God team up, ain’t no way to defeat us
You in cahoots with demons, we got the W teed up
My follow through had to do away with whoever follow you
Send you to your mama like your father do, holler dude
Opportunity knocked, I was shopping in Malibu
Eatin’ soul food on Lennox Avenue, ain’t that a fool
Cannibal, digest niggas and threat dealers
Make set trippers go fetch niggas like pet niggas
Hella cynical, been tripping since clipping my umbilical
Identical bullets reach whoever breaches the sentinel

It’s the king, bitch, I never folded, never team switched (Never)
Don’t understand it? You don’t understand English
Extinguish the fires you set, double the bet
Wish a sucker nothin’ but love and respect while upping the TEC (Hello)
And don’t nobody care none about you being weird, do it here
We’ll take them new veneers home with us as a souvenir

Trevon Diggs, they wanna cut a nigga
No I won’t let coach come headbutt a nigga
You should ride in coach with all them other niggas
Cuz I gotta post a lot of other business
Niggas is emotional and undergiven
I got thirty women put all in one subdivision
Give a nigga space, give a nigga space
Pussy Maricon, I’m filling up the safes
Dinero, we ghetto, Puerto Rico for the weekends
Sippin’ cafecito, Columbian women
Drug lords, all I see is drug wars
Bulletproof trucks to the front doors
Shoot up all your niggas, 50 Cent
And they never walk away, that go for many men
Rich rap shit, this is rich rap
And before I ever rat, I let a bitch rap
You went up at your deal just like you’re Pooh Shiest
When it’s time to kill, trust I’m too nice
Shootin’ for the stars with these two dice
Pull up double Rs with the blue lights
Fat Boy, yes matter fact, boy
Make a rap nigga run, they call the task force
Told so fast, prosecutors jealous
They say the streets dead, but it’s not never that
One shot to the head, where the medic at?
Cash money, I’m the new Cash money
She can hit me in the DM or just ask for me @richforever

Artifacts - Wrong Side Of Da Tracks Hotney 14 Streams • 2 years ago

From the 1994 Album: "Between a Rock and a Hard Place"...(Click "show more" for artist info)...

Artifacts is a hip hop group consisting of El Da Sensei, Tame One and DJ Kaos. They hail from Newark, New Jersey and made underground music that paid homage to the four elements of hip hop. The Artifacts' most popular single "Wrong Side of Da Tracks" paid special homage to graffiti art, as they were graffiti artists themselves.

They released their first album, Between a Rock and a Hard Place on October 27, 1994. Well received by underground hip hop audiences, it featured b-boy and graffiti themes. The album's beats were produced by Buckwild (from the DITC crew) and T-Ray (from the Soul Assassins crew). The Artifacts' second album, That's Them was released on April 15, 1997. It featured similar material, but it did not receive as much recognition as their debut effort. The Artifacts split soon after the release of this second album.

Tame One and El Da Sensei have both continued to release music as solo artists. In 2003, Tame One joined the Weathermen, an underground rap group including Cage Kennylz, Camu Tao, Aesop Rock, and El-P. Soon after joining the Weathermen, Tame One and Cage released the album Waterworld under the name Leak Bros. In 2009, Tame ONe collaborated with another member of the Definitive Jux label, releasing the album Parallel Uni-Verses with Del the Funky Homosapien. El Da Sensei has released a number of solo albums and collaborated with the Polish rap group The Returners in 2008, as well as East Coast-based group, The Immortals Project in 2009.

In August 2009 at the Rock Steady Crew Anniversary Weekend in Newark, New Jersey, Artifacts briefly reunited during a performance by El Da Sensei. According to Tame One the duo have not reconciled their differences but when he heard the horn riff which introduces "Wrong Side of Da Tracks", he felt like performing it. The impromptu reunion has not led to any official reunion.

On August 2, 2010 at The Rock Steady Crew 33rd Anniversary Celebration in Newark, New Jersey, both El Da Sensei and Tame One along with DJ KAOS performed officially as The Artifacts. They performed several songs from their respective catalogs as well as Artifacts material at this show. It is confirmed that they are indeed back together and in the process of collaborating on a new Artifacts album.

Feb. 18, 2020 | Sidney Madden -- Almost without trying, Snoh Aalegra has an unforgettable presence. Strolling into NPR's music department on the day of her Tiny Desk Concert debut, the striking Iranian-Swedish singer donned Off-White Nike Dunks, baggy jeans, dewy skin and a sleek ponytail, carrying herself with the kind of camera-ready, cool-girl aura that silenced a mass of people waiting for her. Even with all that, the moment she started to sing is when the real beauty shone through.

Like a fragile candle flame in a pool of melting wax, the texture of Aalegra's voice mesmerizes without overpowering. The 32-year-old has spent years perfecting that balance. Drawing her musical cues from Brandy and Sade while racking up a list of collaborators such as Vince Staples, James Fauntleroy and, most recently Pharrell Williams, Aalegra always finds her groove in the unexpected pockets of emotion. Much of her latest album, 2019's -Ugh, those feels again, is an ode to the comfortability of love, one that's even more appreciated within the close confines of the Tiny Desk.

On this day in particular, Aalegra's tracks were stripped of their punchier, album-version kick drums and trap echoes. In their absence, it's Aalegra's delicate vocal runs and chemistry with her supporting singers that resonated most. "I Want You Around" and "Whoa," which usually rest on a bed of glitchy, spiraling production, felt lighter thanks to the dreamy string section, and by the time she sang her concert closer, "Find Someone Like You," the room was in full swoon. It's clear that at just 16 minutes, Aalegra and her crew knew how to create a memorable moment.
