Got It Sewed Up Lyrics

Mike Jones
(Yessuh, DJ Paul and Juicy 'J' productions)
Geah, Mike Jones
(Swishahouse, Mike Jones, yeah, Hypnotize Minds)Purple drank I'ma po' up, got the rap game sewed up
They see my grill and like hold up, invisible set, princess cuts
Purple drank I'ma po' up, got the rap game sewed up
They see my grill and like hold up, invisible set, princess cutsHoes peep when I creep up the block
Dope fiends beep me when they need some rocks
Add 20 subtract the top
I'm pimpin' hard in the parkin' lotScreens fall when I lean in the truck
Candy paint, fo' screens on buck
No game needed to pull a slut
I just open mouth and show princess cutsI platinum mine at all times
I shine a lot cause I grind for mine
Why hate on me and you far behind
Wastin' time by talkin' downYou can still trash and I'm in my prime
You feelin' bad and I'm feelin' fine
'Cause "Who is Mike Jones?" is here

"Who is Mike Jones?" is hereI get you crunk when I open my mouth
My diamonds shine every time I talk
I spit a verse here straight to the folk
Cause Mike Jones can't take a lossI get you crunk when I open my mouth
My diamonds shine every time I talk
I spit a verse here straight to the folk
Cause Mike Jones can't take a lossPurple drank I'ma po' up, got the rap game sewed up
They see my grill and like hold up, invisible set, princess cuts
Purple drank I'ma po' up, got the rap game sewed up
They see my grill and like hold up, invisible set, princess cutsM.O.B. 'til the day I go
Got a Range Rov' on 80 4's
On the microphone I shine and glow
I scream my name 'til the day I go
I hit the scene, 'llac candy greenOr candy blue when I'm with my crew
I represent, we drink and screw
I represent, we drink and screwMichael Watts, he choppin' it up
Cocaine, I'm rockin' it up
Yo' gal fine, I'm knockin' her up
Yo' gal fine, I'm knockin' her upI got a plan, got in demand
Now hit the road and start stackin' grands
I'm runnin' the game with my masterplan
I'm runnin' the game with my masterplan2 8 1, 3 3 oh, eight zero zero fo'
Here's the number you can hit me on
When you call, ask for Mike Jones
2 8 1, 3 3 oh, eight zero zero fo'
That's the number you can hit me on
When you call, ask for Mike JonesPurple drank I'ma po' up, got the rap game sewed up
They see my grill and like hold up, invisible set, princess cuts
Purple drank I'ma po' up, got the rap game sewed up
They see my grill and like hold up, invisible set, princess cutsPurple drank I'ma grip and sip
Anything illegal you know I'll flip
I roll the slab with my pistol grip
Diamonds shine from behind my lipI hit the club a hundred deep
With a hundred sweets and a hundred freaks
On the mic you can't compete
'Cause Mike Jones is in the streetsI'm grippin' grain, switchin' lanes
Causin' pain in the turnin' lane
In 7 months I'm runnin' the game
Just ask the streets what is my name?I'm grippin' grain, switchin' lanes
Causin' pain in the turnin' lane
In 7 months I'm runnin' the game
Just ask the streets what is my name?Purple drank I'ma po' up, got the rap game sewed up
They see my grill and like hold up, invisible set, princess cuts
Purple drank I'ma po' up, got the rap game sewed up
They see my grill and like hold up, invisible set, princess cuts

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Mike Jones

At least three artists share this name:

1) A southern rap artist from the northside of Houston, TX, born January 6, 1981.

Mike Jones has become well-known for his unique repetition of his own name throughout his songs. Many of his songs contain the phrases "Who is Mike Jones?" or "Mike Jones!" His major promotional gimmick is to sell and hand out shirts with his cell phone number on them (athletic department-style shirts reading "Property of Mike Jones"), as well as shouting out the number throughout his mixtapes and albums, encouraging fans to call him on his Motorola phone.

Jones is known for recording in the "chopped & screwed" style popularized by DJ Screw, also of Houston. The slowed-down audio aesthetic supposedly mimics the effect of "sippin' sizzurp," that is, cough syrup containing codeine. Most followers of the chopped & screwed style claim that it has outgrown its drug-related roots. Jones' trademark technique is to take a line from one of his songs and use it as a chorus in another, or sometimes even in the same song, screwing, chopping and repeating it (for example, the chorus to "Back Then" is sampled from the track "Still Tippin").

Jones has used repetition of certain words and phrases extensively in his songs. An example of this can be found in songs such as Back Then when he constantly repeats "Mike Jones" and "Who is Mike Jones." As a result, he has come under intense scrutiny or criticism from fellow rappers in his native Houston such as rappers Chamillionaire and Lil' Flip who have accused Mike Jones of copying their slang or criticized his aforementioned rapping style.

2) Solo pianist.

3) An experimental tape artist from Cardiff, Wales.

Mike Jones ran the CTOANR cassette tape label in the early eighties which featured the likes of Artists such as The Stripey Zebras's, Instant Automatons and other independent artists. Mike was also a recording artist and played in The Chromosomes, Effigies (UK) and released solo work.

Recordings from Mike and The Chromosomes were released in 2008 by the American Label Hyped2Death. The album Messthetics: Greatest Hiss features "Reckless Policies" from Mikes 1981 solo Album "Pretty Flowers", "Hi Fi Know How" by The Chromosomes plus a Cardiff based radio competition where his band finished third (out of three).

Since 1985 Mike has played in the punk/techno/C86 band named Otalgia (which is a medical term for earache).
