I'm That Type of Nigga Lyrics


Um um well excuse me. [Repeat: x4]
Who is the nigga in charge over here? Who is the nigga in charge? [Repeat: x4]
Well I am the nigga in charge over here
Sack the quarterback to make a cheerleader cheer
I fix my funk like Thelonious Monk
Stayin' true to the game 'cause I ain't no punk
Never been a bitch so I don't act bitchy
Smoove on the bottle like Lionel Ritchie
If I seems too slick you better ring the alarm clock
Don't dig what I'm kicking? You can suck on a warm cock
Originate trends. My rhymes they get paid
So making ends and beginnings. See, I'm never afraid
Of a pancake MC 'cause I'm flip when I sways this
Out the motherfuckers like a real estate agent.

Douse you with my lyrical liquid for this hip-hop era
So I suggest you fetch an umbrella for my reign of terror
'Cause you can get your posse and your armored brigade
Because I am not afraid
Oh, 'cause I'm the type of nigga that you never forget
What?
And I'm the type of nigga that can shake my shit
What?
'Cause I'm the type of nigga with nothin' to hide
What's your name?
Fat Lip from the Pharcyde and you know what's up
[Repeat: x2]
Who is the nigga in charge over here?
Who is the nigga in charge?
Well I'm dark like chocolate and flow like milk
Slicker than oil smooth like silk
Please give me some room because it's me you're gonna suffocate
The fly-ass brother is Imani the Great
You fuck with me I'll be the nigga who be slanging them dogs on
Flagsticks hands like bricks niggas be be droppin' like logs
I used to be the nigga now the down with doin' dirt
Now I got your girl callin' when she's down with doin' work
'Cause I'm the type of nigga that'll rock them drawers
Straight to a party, tuggin' on my balls
I used to be the nigga that'd keep you happy
Go ask your moms 'cause I might the nigga you callin' (pappy)
[Repeat: x3]
Who is the nigga in charge over here?
Who is the nigga in the charge?
Well I'm the nigga in charge-in
What?
E.X. Large-in
What?
Captain of a ship pretender no never no sergeant
See I'm the type of nigga to catch a bullet in my teeth
They call you Saint Nick dick 'cause you'll get hung like a wreath
Set ya check is what I do to put your head out
Ja like a don't de sneak detective roughly 'fore they get out
I'm the type of nigga that'll serve you on a platter
Like the piece of glass when I drop it you shatter
I'm the type of nigga that'll kick yo ass
What?
I'm the type of nigga that's built to last
What?
Yep the type the nigga that'll say what's up
To a brother but a devil would just get fucked up
And it's like that, alright black?
I pick up the mic and strike that
Your ego 'cause motherfuckin' ego is awesome
Beat junky is the cue Buckwheat's my name and I'm a sort them
So you better get off my dick
'Cause if you ain't a beat junky
Then you ain't said shit
[Repeat: x2]
Who is the nigga in charge over here?
Who is the nigga in the charge?
You better watch your hide
'Cause this sound ain't big enough for the two of us
It's so boss and I'll bust actually
See I'm the type of nigga that likes to freak
What?
And I'm the type of nigga that'll roll my sleeves
What?
Ah but there's a castle I'm down to kick some pothole
Nigga crash nigga bash with very little muscle
Hustle-uh in my heart so I'm a play the part
Of that type a nigga with the ice cold heart
Chilly Willy, don't be silly
I'll take a Philly and a boner
Make 'er disown ya
Changin' into moaner
Put 'er on my throne oh yeah
See I'm the type of the nigga so you better beware
The nigga is on I'm putting it on like Al Capone I'm all that
The only difference between me and Alsy palsy is I'm black, jack.
King me
No clownin' 'cause I'm crownin' like a (Jew)
And when I spin my shit it's 190 proof
[Repeat: x2]
Who is the nigga in charge over here?
Who is the nigga in the charge?
Well I shakes em down like P.E.
That's what they try to be me
I always XXX the Nike and I kick you in your pee-pee that's me
I am the one that kicked your daddy in your nuts
That's why your mental state was fucked before you hit your mama's guts
'Cause I'm the nigga down the bar
I flip it in a car
This time there was a quarter only a dollar was what they cost
'Cause niggas on my Snoopy like the bird Woodstock
Get ya hands off my dick because I hold this cock
It's like a awaitin' in the distance
Resisted from persistence
I'm Dirty Harry and I take your mama just for instance
'Cause I'm the type of nigga to make the fat lady sing
Hour after my flow she wasn't shocked with my swing
But a little too much weight to be a new jack man
Got more rhythm in my toe than a whole blues band
'Cause when I rock the people roll when I recite from my scroll
Take the beat nigga forever mind body and soul
Um um well excuse me [Repeat: x6]
I been waitin' for a beat

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The Pharcyde is a West Coast underground/alternative hip hop group. The group was formed in 1991 in South Los Angeles, California, United States, where the group's members grew up. The group was one of the most well known of the first wave of alternative hip-hop acts.

The original members of the group are "Slimkid3" (Tre Hardson), "Fatlip" (Derrick Stewart), "Imani" (Emandu Wilcox) and "Bootie Brown" (Romye Robinson). The group is best known for their hit singles "Passing Me By" (which crossed over to alternative rock radio) and "Runnin'", and their debut album Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde.

History

1991-1996

After a live performance of their song "Ya Mama" for Delicious Vinyl record execs, The Pharcyde signed a record deal with the label. "Ya Mama" was released as their debut single in 1991. The foursome, with producer J-Swift, recorded their debut album Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde, released in November 1992. The album was highly acclaimed, and became one of the most praised and influential Alternative hip hop albums of the 90's. Sales were moderate-to-good, the album was certified Gold by the RIAA in 1996. Their second single "Passing Me By" became a minor Billboard hit, peaking at #52 on the Hot 100. The song was later featured in the hit movie Big Daddy and was also a crossover Modern Rock hit. Problems between the group and producer J-Swift began during the recording of the debut. Swift split from the group before completion of the album [which is why the final recording, "Otha Fish", is the only song not produced by J-Swift]. Swift started a crack habit, which he is still trying to recover from.

After the Bizarre Ride album was released, the group began touring with A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul, culminating at an appearance at the Lollapalooza show in 1994. In 1995, The Pharcyde released their sophomore effort, Labcabincalifornia. The album received mixed reviews, due to a different musical direction from the light-hearted playfulness of their debut. The album included another big crossover hit, "Runnin'", peaking at #55 on the Billboard Hot 100. This single was later featured in the movie 8 Mile, as well as the More Music from 8 Mile soundtrack. Labcab featured production from future super-producers Jay Dee and Diamond D. Album sales this time around didn't fare as well, the group wasn't able to reach Gold status again. Problems between Fatlip and the other MC's began to rise after this album, resulting in his split from the group. In a video interview with director Spike Jonze, featured on the bonus DVD from his solo album, Fatlip stated that he started sniffing cocaine, he was kicked out of the group due to his addiction to cocaine.

1997-present

The group was largely missing in the Hip Hop scene between 1997 and 1999. The three remaining members returned in 2000 with an EP titled Chapter One: Testing The Waters. They released a full studio album later in the year titled Plain Rap. The album was received with a luke-warm reception, critically and commercially. Soon after the release, member Slimkid3, now going by his birth name of Tre Hardson, split from the group to pursue a solo career. In 2002, he released his solo debut "Liberation".

The two remaining members, Bootie Brown and Imani, continued on with the group name, and released an album in 2004, Humboldt Beginnings. The album received even less attention critically and commercially than their last effort. Former member Fatlip released his solo debut in 2005, titled The Loneliest Punk. A Pharcyde compilation was released in 2005, titled Sold My Soul-The Remix & Rarity Collection, featuring a number of remixes and rare songs.

In 2003, Bootie Brown was featured on the DJ Danger Mouse and Jemini the Gifted One Ghetto Pop Life album track "Medieval".

In 2005, Bootie Brown featured on the Gorillaz track "Dirty Harry".

2007, Fatlip featured on Chemical Brothers track "The Salmon Dance."

On Delicious Vinyl's official YouYube page, it is said that more music from Tre Hardson, Fatlip, J-Swift and St. Imey are expected to be released early 2008. It also calls these artists the label's 'Dream Team'.

On April 22, 2008 it was announced that The Pharcyde would be reuniting for the annual Rock the Bells Festival Series. The first performance was Saturday, July 19 in Chicago.[3]
Remixes of The Pharcyde's "Runnin" and "Passin' Me By" appear on Delicious Vinyl's 2008 release, Rmxxology.

The Pharcyde toured Australia in February 2009 as part of the Good Vibrations Festival, and played in Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast and Perth, which was headlined by Fatboy Slim.
