Lord Finesse's voice sampled for "Rockafeller Skank"



crazy that he got screwed by Fatboy Slim

 

[Rakim Allah]

Return of the Funky Man was his best album. The production was flawless plus he was in peak condition with his punchlines and flow.

Finesse is that dude.

Bars for days. Both "Return of The Funky Man" and "The Awakening" were masterpieces.

ive been doing this the past 10 years.

focusing in on the stuff that I always wanted, or over-looked or never heard of.

but not just the '90s. also the '80s and whatever I can dig up from the '70s.

"I can be bummy and nappy headed and still pull a dime piece"

Those words were motivation for my struggling moments during senior year.

Been fuc*ing with Finesse since Return of the Funkyman. One of my favorite of all time. And that camp was so fuc*ing dope: AG, Percee P, Big L....

I've said a bunch of times, I think this is one of the best verses of all time by any rapper, ever:

Lord Finesse - Yes You May Ft. AG & Percee P

[Percee P]
Like sulfuric acid I'm lethal, soon as my words reach you
They eat through brains of those that chose to speak to
A wiser and smoother, keep up or I lose you
When I manuver words when I'm heard I confuse you, bruise you
I'm high potent, devoting much time into one rhyme
Every line of mine is worth quoting
I'm like a college dorm, people will swarm
For knowledge, applicants chill out and fill out a form
I know I'm the best MC, no one can mess with me
I'm a recipe, diss the P and you're history
Percee P's the man to praise
For day's after a phrase is said I'll leave your head phased
No one can surpass the P, get on before or after me
That can be a catastrophe
Brains I kill, when I build
With my skill, in my field cause I'm ideal
Foes I decompose from nose to toes
I will dispose of all of those that chose to go to my shows
You gotta hand it to me, you know I'm uno, a sumo
Doing Judo couldn't do no damage to me
I stayed up later made up a rhyme straight up, I ate up yours
Sprayed up yours, cause get laid up
Thinking I'm a make it big, you rap fans know that
Preparing to hear rap, and you snap your Kodak
Diss me, the P? That'll be suicide
You no frills with no skills, I'll just put you aside
Rappers are skinned in battles and winning them from within them
Befriend them, before I beat them I greet them then eat them, then send them
Now go and hide, my lyrics coincide
And dwell all through your brain cells as soon as they go inside
The Giant, you got something to say?

And Finesse's verse on this was no joke either...

MC's I eat up, chew up, mash up
Get out of hand and I'll fukk your damn ass up

Whether a variety, or even one group
Any MC against me, now that's a dumb move
As I proceed to flip, I'm a succeed with this
A brother beat me? No one would believe that shyt
So don't play me, stress me, or stand hard
Never send a p*ssy out to do a man's job
This is my game, I play the cards here
I bust a rapper's ass plus I send him home with car fare
I flow like a faucet, kick the crazy raw shyt
I beat a rapper from the party to his doorstep
