B Boys Will B Boys Lyrics by Black Star

Mos Def & Talib Kweli Are Black Star

1998

[Intro: Mos Def]
Yo yo, yo, whassup, yo yo
Yo yo, we gonna, we gonna slow it down so we can speed it up, y'all
Right now I want everybody come to the front
That's right, move forward
I want all the poppers and the breakers, to form this circle
I want all the poppers and the breakers
The writers and the exciters, to get in this circle
And make it real live, yo
'Cause I'm seein' too many stars up in here tonight, yo
I'm seein' the Rock Steady Crew
I'm seein' Ken Swift, I'm seein Mr. Wiggles
I'm seein' Maurizio, I'm seein' Crazy Legs
Man, I'm seein' the Zulu Nation up in here
I'm seein' the Rawkus family – Shabaam Sahdeeq, Company Flow, Menelik
I'm seein' Ge-ology, Shawn J. Period
Man, this the Black Star movement
Mos Def, Talib Kweli – we gon' keep it live
For the b-boys and b-girls universally
Rock Steady Japan, Rock Steady Europe
Rock Steady New York, yo, we just gonna keep it live
All over the world -get live, y'all!
[Verse: Talib Kweli, Mos Def & both]
Party people in the place to be
My name is Talib Kweli
Yo, I got my man on the side of me
Mos Def-initely, and we are
(Fresh) Black Star, (Fresh) G. Young
(Fresh) Hi-Tek, (Fresh) Native Tongue
(Fresh) Shawn J, (Fresh) 88
(Fresh) '98, we 'bout to motivate – come on, y'all
Here's a little story that must be told
About two young brothers who was put on hold
They tried to stop the goal, we on a spiritual plane
Tried to kill the pride and destroy the name
We just two bad brothers who will never quit
I'm Mos Def, Kweli, we the ultimate!
Make sure that you tell everybody you know
To get on line, take a ride to the Black Star show!
[Chorus: Talib Kweli, Mos Def & both]
Black Star (Shinin'), shinin', we in the house
Shinin', (Shinin'), we in the house, y'all
Black Star (Shinin'), shinin', we in the house
Shinin', (Shinin'), we in the house, y'all
Black Star (Shinin'), shinin', we in the house
Shinin', (Shinin'), we in the house, y'all
Black Star (Shinin'), shinin', we in the house
Shinin', (Shinin'), we in the house, y'all
