From Napster to Rapstation.com/
T the Internet’s equivalent to a dropped bomb upon the distribution industry/
It fits the fusion, feel the synergy/
With MP3 Music Communities; not even meters can limit me/
There’s no boundaries with this, The means finally exist/
Cause there’s no ceasing to the sounds that people get/
And I resoundingly admit, I dress a track like vinaigrette/
They’re wishing they could go back to when Napster Wasn’t invented yet

Well, let me interject with intellect, catch me on the Internet/
On or off-line, a floppy disk or cassette/
I’ll address the rap nation, napster to rapstation/
The industry’s full of dicks, I cut em off like castration/
They’re catching hissyfits, in actuality it’s flattery/
I searched napster to download this…now you cats are mad at me?
For you a hard drive is a ride without a chauffeur
But it holds all your tracks for your fans in Manitoba/
“Where the fuck is Manitoba?”/
Don’t you know that little town in West Bumblefuck where the net is your only form of exposure?/
This shit is far from over, damn right I’m a downloader/
You should change your names to story, cause yo, I thought I told ya.

Tommy Matolla makes a million a minute, if you see him/
Start grilling him in his BM for stealing our listening freedom/
He’s disagreeing with Napster – acts to block it/
But notice, the only artists complaining seem have the fattest pockets/
It’s sad and shocking, the way that greed controls nation/
If a track is lent to me, it’s not a legal violation/
My summation’s they build an absurd case/
Cause to make an MP3 of a track I need the CD in the first place/
PackFM
I don’t care who you are, I’ll battle ya, from Dre to Metallica/
Your shit got leaked, cause I got an email from a pal of yours/
Shit, I ain’t mad at ya. I shine like an Arista/
MP3’s the biggest thing since a pokemon character/
So, I log onto Napster to take a Peek-At-Choo/
This is a sneak preview, passed on from me to you/
From PCs to G3’s it’s the sound of the streets/
Rapstation & Napster, Power to People and Beats.
CHORUS

You can download our tracks, we don’t mind, just take 2/
On behalf of napster we’d like to thank you.
Lucy Camp is the future. Beyond her unbelievable rapping capabilities, she's completely fearless and versatile with her sound. You literally never know what to expect from her. Tonedeff
Substantial is one of the greatest living emcees on the planet. Adultish is a masterwork of self-produced music about ageing gracefully, handled with a stunning level of emotional & artistic maturity. Tonedeff
This album saved my life. It's instrumental. Maybe that's what I needed at the time, but it got me through when I needed it most. Fantastic melodies and memorable moments. LOVE it. Tonedeff
