Scroobius Pip, uh, what's your opinion of UK hip hop?

Uh, well, I, uh, don't think there's that much going on. There's some, there's some great stuff, don't get me wrong. There are some amazing albums, but a lot of people are just doing the same thing over and over again. It just gets a bit monotonous. Here, mess the beat up, and show us what you think, dan le sac.

Ahaha, ahahaha, ahahaha.
dan le sac;
Scroobius Pip.
Fixing hip hop,
As best we can.

(Chorus)
Hip hop is art.
Don't make another pop hit; be smart.
Take it back to the start.
Like KRS and Rakim, use passion and heart. (x2)

Now, don't get me wrong; I ain't dissing Dizzee Rascal.
I'm just using his beat as a single example.
It was the first big hit of its kind in the pop charts.
All that last shit with profit in mind, not heart.

Channel U's full of UK sound and ringtone,
Think they should all have P45s to bring home.
Prancing about like they're the next big thing
'Cos their cousin's got an 8 track, and their mate, Daryll, can sing.

These kids getting above their stations and saying,
They're a vessel through which a higher power's conveying.
"My lyrical content is a miracle, godsent."
My name is Scroobius Pip, and I say fuck all that nonsense.

Their lyrical prognosis is like spiritual osmosis.
In that everything they say evaporates into boasts; it's a joke.
I've listened, and I cant even find one quote
Worth using as a reference or even as a footnote.

Most of these kids could get their guns out and kill me,
But how many have the skill to inspire and thrill me?
I've got a holster; I keep biscuits in it.
It works into your brain leaving big fat blisters in it.

Who am I better than?
I'm better than I used to be.
I'm gonna keep on getting better,
So you better just get used to me.

If you think that's a cop out,
Then hear my point truthfully.
'Cos chances are,
This is how you should be.

If your aim is to be as good as Scroobius Pip,
Then as soon as you achieve that, your standards will slip.
But if your goal is only to improve on yourself,
Then the quest is never over, no matter how big your wealth.

(Chorus) (x8)
