Same Sound
Breaking Chains: Kool Keith's Visionary Critique on Uniformity in Music
Lyrics
We built the robot, called Voltron
We created a robot named Voltron.
Who will replace the music industry in ten years
Anticipating a replacement for the music industry within ten years.
We're working on him right now
Currently working on the development of this replacement.
Everybody sound the same
Expressing a concern that many artists in the music industry sound and rap alike.
Everybody rap the same
-Everybody sound the same
-Everybody rap the same
-I got 7 million Bentleys, two thousand Range Rovers
Listing extravagant possessions, wealth, and philanthropic activities, emphasizing opulence.
8 Jaguars designed up, 600 million ladies lined up
-Shoes with built-in air conditioner
-All 48 Mack trucks parked in position
-Credit cards by the pages
-You can't stop the helicopter and baller stages
-I take care of adults
-Send 20 thousand grants to kids all ages
-10 Grand pianos, my TV show's The Sopranos
-800 Acres of free land
-With a custom made zoo don't touch the animals
-Bathroom toilet, and bathtub with diamond handles
-8,000 Flights a year
-Send the women to El Salvador first class tickets to come over here
-Everybody sound the same
Reiterating the concern about uniformity in the music industry.
Everybody rap the same
-Everybody sound the same
-Everybody rap the same
-22 Porsches in front of 7 gas stations I own
Describing ownership of numerous luxury items, philanthropy, and the extent of personal influence.
Give every girl a New York a cellular phone
-Interstate highway controller 22 thousand cars on the freeway
-Co-signer by myself, under me one owner
-800 Thousand in charity, to the Red Cross and blood donors
-Diamonds on my shoe soles
-Bears and sheepskins, hunters make my coats from Polars
-Support women, give 'em section 8 loyalty
-With 50 thousand baby strollers
-Send private jets out every 5 seconds to pick up high rollers
-Milk containers with my name on 'em
-Washing machines with my embroidery and fame on 'em
-Who could stop me?
-Everybody sound the same
Repeating the concern about homogeneity in music.
Everybody rap the same
-Everybody sound the same
-Everybody rap the same
-With 8 bodies, I can perform in Dallas and L.A. and New York
Claiming the ability to perform in multiple cities simultaneously, showcasing wealth and influence.
And Miami, Texas and Denver, 3 more cities at the same time
-Simultaneously sync'd up with the same rhyme
-Lyrics come in Braille
-Did a show in Montreal, in an arena 62 thousand packed
-Everybody was blind, 6 thousand pythons around my neck
-3 Tigers and 4 lions, just bought the tampon maxi pad company
-There's no slouch or slum in me
-Hotel investory - been in the game since Watergate
-Six million suits, paid in full
-Throwin iced up Rolexes at A.J. Lester
-We New Jack City, CMB! You see
-Everybody sound the same
Continuing to express dissatisfaction with the lack of diversity and originality in the music industry.
Everybody rap the same
-Everybody sound the same
-Everybody rap the same
-Everybody sound the same
-Everybody rap the same
-Everybody sound the same
-Everybody rap the same
