Trueschool Monday #49

"I see guys and girls dancin', open up my flows at random
There's no retreat, hold your beats for ransom
No means no and that's the answer
I see in the dark with my lantern
Triple optic, Iriscience, Evidence ready to rock it
Of course Babu always in pocket
That's right, example of a show that's tight
Showin' you corny mothafuckers
What hip-hop's supposed to sound like..."

Dilated Peoples is a hip hop group from California. The group achieved notability in the underground hip hop community [citation needed], although they have had little mainstream success in the US, with the exception of the song "This Way," a 2004 collaboration with Kanye West. It reached the Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart with two tracks, "This Way" and "Worst Comes to Worst." Their members include DJ Babu (producer/DJ), Evidence (emcee-producer) and Rakaa Iriscience (emcee)
