Ivan Law coined the phrase 24/7 as a lyric , in his 1986 song drop the Beat. 1<br />00:02:27,801 -- 00:02:30,481<br />I never could spell the word<br /><br />43<br />00:02:30,481 -- 00:02:32,721<br />defeat with these lame brain suckers<br /><br />44<br />00:02:32,721 -- 00:02:34,521<br />try to compete. They started flapping<br /><br />45<br />00:02:34,601 -- 00:02:36,682<br />their gums as I began to hum. It was<br /><br />46<br />00:02:36,682 -- 00:02:38,442<br />totally embarrassing in front of the<br /><br />47<br />00:02:38,482 -- 00:02:40,442<br />freak. but rapping ain't the only thing<br /><br />48<br />00:02:40,442 -- 00:02:42,562<br />that makes me unique. Wearing silk on my<br /><br />49<br />00:02:42,642 -- 00:02:45,122<br />back, a snake off my feet. Got a rap line<br /><br />50<br />00:02:45,242 -- 00:02:47,562<br />baby that can't be beate just as easy as<br /><br />51<br />00:02:47,562 -- 00:02:49,603<br />walking. Just like I'm talking<br /><br />52<br />00:02:49,683 -- 00:02:52,163<br /> 24/7. All rappers i'm, stalking not<br /><br />53<br />00:02:52,163 -- 00:02:53,883<br />taking the test because of my pace is<br /><br />54<br />00:02:53,883 -- 00:02:56,123<br />set. You haven't had the best till. You<br /><br />55<br />00:02:56,123 -- 00:02:58,523<br />try the rest. I guarantee you. Baybe I<br /><br />56<br />00:02:58,603 -- 00:03:00,763<br />give you no less because the beat is poppen<br /><br />57<br />00:03:00,963 -- 00:03:03,604<br />and the base is boppen. All around the clock<br /><br />58<br />00:03:03,604 -- 00:03:06,284<br />everybody's rocking got a rap so smooth that<br /><br />59<br />00:03:06,444 -- 00:03:09,054<br />I can't lose. Drop the beat and watch the<br /><br />60<br />00:03:09,054 -- 00:03:09,814<br />body move.<br /><br />61<br />00:04:27,420 -- 00:04:29,420<br />I'm in the east and the West. Rocking<br /><br />62<br />00:04:29,420 -- 00:04:31,380<br />with the Best. In the north and the South<br /><br />63<br />00:04:31,380 -- 00:04:34,300<br />by word. I started with the four track<br /><br />64<br />00:04:34,300 -- 00:04:36,700<br />Sitting in my room. Now I'm on the radio.<br /><br />65<br />00:04:36,700 -- 00:04:38,421<br />It's time to boom<br /><br />66<br />00:04:38,421 -- 00:04:40,461<br />Like arsenial Hall . I'm going to stand real tall.<br /><br />67<br />00:04:40,461 -- 00:04:42,461<br />like Martin Luther King. Yes. I had a<br /><br />68<br />00:04:42,501 -- 00:04:45,341<br />dream add it all up. And what does it mean<br /><br />69<br />00:04:45,341 -- 00:04:47,661<br />plenty dead presidents for doing my<br /><br />70<br />00:04:47,661 -- 00:04:49,941<br />thing. I'm the baddest known rapper from Watts to .<br /><br />71<br />00:04:49,941 -- 00:04:52,542<br />The Bay is my glory time now. Yeah it's<br /><br />72<br />00:04:52,542 -- 00:04:54,582<br />My day. If you want a dispute, then you.<br /><br />73<br />00:04:54,982 -- 00:04:57,542<br />better commute or send me a plane fare. I<br /><br />74<br />00:04:57,542 -- 00:04:59,862<br />definitely be there I travel all night<br /><br />75<br />00:04:59,862 -- 00:05:02,142<br />just to rock on the mic. Not a mountain<br /><br />76<br />00:05:02,142 -- 00:05:03,983<br />Or sea. Makes me stay away 'cause you.<br /><br />77<br />00:05:03,983 -- 00:05:06,703<br />clown me once and it's time to pay like a<br /><br />78<br />00:05:06,703 -- 00:05:09,623<br />two edge sword i cut you both ways . So drop the<br /><br />79<br />00:05:09,663 -- 00:05:11,663<br />beat. It's my turn to get paid.
