Jordan vs. Bird…

jordan vs bird

This heatrock is off Maffew Ragazino’s debut album ‘Rhyme Pays’ and is featuring everybody’s favorite Albanian, Action Bronson…

I asked Maffew to send me a transcription of the song’s lyrics because after my first listen I immediately detected the technical skill which he displayed thru out this track. Maffew’s verses are littered with polysyllabic words which makes completing the bars and rhymes that much more difficult.

Maffew Ragazino skills the track tho’. He is something like Larry Bird on the basketball court, dissecting his opponents with his rhyme verse. Action meanwhile, is more like Jordan with all his haughty swagger. Take a look at their lyrics…

Maffew:
The face of the brown noser reeks with a foul odor
Rat poison on your tongue if your mouths’ motor, no Balboa
Crown holder in Calcutta and Serbia
Persian murderers, schizophrenia, disturbia
Douse niggas in Bourbon, set ’em ablaze
If I ain’t on the cover, fuck a write up on the ninety-eigth page
Rhyme Pays more than Phillip Morris
Heir to the throne, it’s set in stone, rigamortis

Action:
I want the type of shit you see in the movies
Two big bad bitches blowing me in jacuzzis ’til my dickie is soft
Dutch Master with the 50 of cough, won’t stop ’til I shit in a loft
I been shifting the sport, going to court, smelling a drug, lie like a rug,
Fly like a dove, to the highest above
Choose my weapon wisely, nine or the snub
Double headed eagle emblem and no smile on my mug

Maffew:
200 for the foams, put the same price on your bones
Step in the red zone, they bringing your head home
I bring the turkey bacon and bread home, my ol’ lady do the dishes
City on my back, Lithuanian weight lifter
Wolf in sheep cloth, chameleon shape shifter
Arctic Monkeys and apes nigga
Gorillas in the concrete jungle, tree branch bundles
Zanax tabs and coconut truffles

Action:
You get laced up just like my bitches drawers
I’m smoking on the sickamore
I’m looking like a grizzly so these motherfuckers hit the floor
And play dead, but that don’t work because I’m smarter
And plus you see the jacket, NY Knickerbocker starter
Dutch guts, you see ’em flying out the window of the whip
‘Cuz I’m smoking while I’m driving and the pigs ain’t doing shit
Meanwhile I’m getting topped from bitch with the piercing on her lip
And piercing on her tit and piercing on her clit

Maffew:
Birdseye view, gooseneck and she’s spread eagle
Hotel Rwanda, 40 dollar stay, blacker than Don Cheadle
Daredevil, Evil Kneivel
Empire State with no parachute, took a leap of faith
I’m off the roof when I’m off the juice
Fuck a truce, I got the juice, nigga your Posdnous
I’d rather plug two like Trugoy
True Blues and cargo shorts made of corduroy

Action:
Lay my nuts right on your face, how do they taste? I haven’t showered
smoking on the flower, leather jacket, Eddie Bauer
Stuffing up some chicken, let it roast about an hour
take it out and carve it up, I’m on the west wing of the tower
From the land of Flushing, ducks hang in the window
cruising ’round for hours blowing smoke right out the rental
Flow is presidential, hoes are on the pencil
never sketchy with my picture, giving gills, call me Kendall

The congregation should move from the Bring Your Own Blogger BBQ in Bushwick on Saturday to the Rumsey Playfield for church on Sunday.

The guest preachers shall be rap deacons Eric and Parrish (Makin’ Dollars – no Creflo) moving into the high sermon from the God MC himself – Rakim.

In the sanctuary, extra cornbread will be served to anyone coming from Central Islip or Wyandanch.

The church hat worn should be of the fisherman variety.

And would the church kindly say Amen?
