Let's All Get Down Lyrics


I'm a live nigga standing out like a rash
A live nigga keep cash in a stash
What's the eggs without the corn beef hash?
Blowing up like Sarah Dash
Jerkin up the neck known to cause whiplash
Dance and get down with me
Peep the steelo the strategy
What killed the cat's curiosity?
You better believe that I be freaking
Pull my ? the M be leaking
Same MC who wreck shop at the Beacon
Uptown lingo is what I'm speaking
So put your pedal to the metal
And feet to the ground
And peep this uptown sound

It makes no sense in standing around
Hey, it makes no sense just standing around
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around
I'm chilling with Nice and Smooth with my Phat Farm outfit
They say what's up Rick what's up good to see you out kid
Where the party at, asking and relaxing
And pop a couple of Moe's listening to some fat tracks with them
Being a kid locked, want to check the the scene and shit
Zulu Nation having something tonight at the arena Greg
Lets get drunk and roll, said they like the sound of it
Rolled a couple of blunts, but Ruler wasn't down with it
? want to go and hit something
Be off work release even if you get caught with weed in yo system
Be up north quick, since we all down to roll
Went to the club having the up most amount of fun
Should've heard them groupies scream for
Wonder why this brother looking at me all mean for
Ignored it, kept swapping til my neck hurt
Then Greg Nice and Smooth did this very same record called
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around
Happy birthday, what's the word say
To papa smurf, I cover the globe like earth day
Rollin with G and the Rickster
Flavor full boogie down mixture
We came back to attack with the Ruler
You can't get no cooler
On our way to the bank
Now do the Patty Duke and then do the Spank
Come from the heart things spark
And keep your eyes glued to the top of the chart
Oh shit, its the man with the fronts and the jewels
The kids with the blunts and the tools
Sewing up shop like needles
Selling more record than the Beetles
So don't be astound
And makes no sense in standing around
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
Come on everybody lets all get down
It makes no sense just standing around

Andre Hicks (July 5, 1970 - November 1, 2004), better known by his stage name, Mac Dre, was a Bay Area based gangsta rapper from the Crest side of Vallejo, California and considered one of the predecessors of the hyphy movement. During his career in the rap world, he worked with artists like Andre Nickatina, Yukmouth, Snoop Dogg, Mac Mall, Dubee and Keak Da Sneak.

Career

Mac Dre's music gained popularity in the early to mid 1990s throughout the Bay Area, eventually receiving national recognition through his independent record labels Romp and Thizz Entertainment. He released many hit singles, such as "Too Hard for the Radio", and most recently "Feelin' Myself". He was the creator of the "Thizzle Dance", a popular dance which holds no specific standard. Hardship and controversy were staples of Mac Dre's career. After recording his first three albums between 1989 and 1991, Mac was charged with conspiracy to commit bank robbery. His record label, Romp Productions, and his many references to "Romper Room" in his songs, coincided with a Vallejo robbery gang of the time calling themselves the "Romper Room Gang" and responsible for the robberies of many area banks and pizza parlours. Hicks was alleged to be a member of the gang. The rapper was sentenced to five years in prison in 1992.

In prison, Hicks gained some notoriety by recording the lyrics to songs directly over the Fresno County jail inmate telephone. His album, Young Black Brotha, was a result of such efforts, as well as guest appearances on fellow artists' songs, all while Hicks was still imprisoned. A later album, Back 'N Da Hood, was also made up of these prison-recorded songs.

After his release from prison in 1996, Mac Dre began releasing albums steadily, building pace in the early 21st century. Mac Dre's audience was growing, and mainstream hip-hop stations were beginning to give Hicks' music more airtime. Hicks relocated to Sacramento, California in 2001, where he began a label, Thizz Entertainment.

Death

On November 1, 2004, Mac Dre was shot to death while returning to his hotel after a performance in Kansas city. A car pulled up next to the white van carrying Dre along with other Thizz artists. Whether words where exchanged or not, the ordeal ended in the bloodshed of a bay area rap legend. The van swerved off the road and into a ravine where it ran into a tree. Word is that Dre was thrown from the van, but officials say they found him in the front seat, dead on arrival. Some believe that Mac Dre's killer was Kansas City rapper Anthony "Fat Tone" Watkins. In 2005 Watkins was murdered, allegedly by Bay Area rapper Mac Minister. In March 2006, Mac Minister was arrested by FBI officials.
