Ghostface admits he wasn't rapping about shyt on Supreme Clientele

[boogers]

ghost is a fukkin weirdo and i love him. no homo. but he might be one of the closest things to captain beefheart in hiphop. ghost wasnt really coming from a dada place but the imagery and intention is quite similar. ghost is quite the surrealist. hes dope man

 

[levitate]

That’s… Wu-Tang in general

Ole “I’m bombing nations with abominations…horizontal calamities are nothing but kin to me. Floating above the astral plane with government entities…laser beams moving faster than light, focused on enemies.” ass lyrics…

That Aesop Rock cac too

Couldnt get into him, sounded like a word salad.

 

[Bigblackted4]

Nah, Camp Lo just makes a lot of refences to blackploitation movies

When they wasn’t they was rapping gibberish and it sounded amazing

 

[fscballin]

I feel like Camp Lo did that as well

 

[ViShawn]

Supreme Clientele was classic tho

 

[inndaskKy]

Who tf was tryna decipher that? We were laughing our asses off at the wordplay, not trying to decode the shyt


“
Scooby snack jurassic plastic gas booby trap
Ten years workin for me, you wanna tap shyt?
Bung bung bung! Your bell went rung rung rung!
Staple-Land's where the ambulance don't come”

like how does that come off deep? lmao

Scooby snack jurassic plastic means he can easily take the ammunition thrown at him that may appear to be monstrously dangerous
gas booby trap it was set up to catch him off guard but it's as easy to walk through it for him as it is to walk through a cloud of gas.
Ten years workin for me, you wanna tap shyt?
On the spot, Ghost realizes that the trap was set for him by one of his own people who had been working for him for ten years but now betrays him in order to try to get with his girl.
Bung bung bung! Your bell went rung rung rung!
Because he wasn't hit by the ammunition, he can now shoot back and he doesn't miss.
Staple-Land's where the ambulance don't come
He can shoot you at celebrity gatherings such as a Laker game, where it's difficult to get an ambulance inside in time to save you.



I mean, this line made perfect sense, I think you just picked a bad example

There was a thread in The Booth about this.

He's also schizophrenic which would explain his lyrics at times.

I am not surprised because the lyrics yall posting in here sound like word salad

 

[Ozymandeas]

we already knew this. nikka said this shyt with a straight face:
"Hit Poughkeepsie, crispy chicken birds, fur up a stone, Richie Chop the O, sprinkle little snow inside a Optimo/Swing the John McEnroe, rap rock n roll, tidy bowl gung-ho pro, Starsky with the gumsole/ Hit the rum slow, parole kids, live Rapunzel But Tone Stizzy really high, the vivid laser eye guy/Jump in the Harley ride, Clarks, I freak 'em lemon pie."

I just imagine what nikkas was thinking when he was spittin that in the booth and they was recording him.
As a kid I ain't know what the fukk that meant and still don't, but it's still my favorite Wu member album.

Not gonna lie, this nonsensical shyt sounds hard just by reading the lyrics alone without hearing the music

It do sound kinda hard though He hit Poughkeepsie with a brick of cocaine. Richard broke down the cocaine but, spilled some inside the Optimo vehicle. He's swinging his gun like John McEnroe swings his tennis racket, being very reckless with it. He is drinking his alcoholic beverage slowly thinking about how he got parole after being locked in prison like Rapunzel But he's focused on the future nonetheless and decided to go for a ride on his new motorcycle while wearing his Lemon-colored Clark shoes his babymom just got him.

spilled some inside the Optimo vehicle

this what I mean. I always thought this meant he put a little coke in an optimo cigarillo

 

[ExodusNirvana]

The man said “this rap is like ziti facing me real tv. Crash at hi speeds strawberry kiwi”


Sounded fly af tho

This makes total sense though and it's not that deep

His raps got flavor like ziti

Real TV is those clip shows that show wild high speed chases with cops or other wild shyt

Strawberry Kiwi flavored drinks are sweet and also have flavor

There's no deep meaning beyond that

 

[ExodusNirvana]

this what I mean. I always thought this meant he put a little coke in an optimo cigarillo

That's exactly what it meant

 

[feelosofer]

Yea he was rapping nonsense but it's still a classic.

See, this why I wish the SOHH archives was still up.
Niccas was legit tryina argue with me about this chit. Lol
