The Illest Lyrics

[Joell Ortiz]
Rusty 9 gettin gully on the roof
This so rough, I left my skully on in the booth
I drag my tin boots through the gutter with the troops
Gotta fire at you while you with your mother on the stoop
Aint nothing nice, filling 5 cent cups with ice
Ass crack stuffed with the stuff that the custies like
My flow inspired by po-po ridin by
Cause lil Jojo let the fo fo iron fly
So expect nothing but heat from me
When the beat ugly, I sour dollar spit
Aint nothing sweet money
So whoever say Ortiz hungry is lying
Im starving, Im famine, man I act like I never eat sonny
I keep ya head nodding, when the bass pumpin
And you can hate cousin, but dont say something
And no face muggin, Im S-H-A-D-Y
Slaughterhouse all day[Biggie]

Lyrically Im untouchable, uncrushable
Ask your friends, whos the illest?
Lyrically Im untouchable, uncrushable
Ask your friends, whos the illest?[Crooked I]
Yeah, rap is in danger, Crooked I was born in a California manger
God of the West caost, know the flow nice when youre signed to Shady Aftermath
and used to be on Death Row.
What am I, gun in eye, sing you a lullaby
Nullify your skull in 5 seconds by putting a slug inside
Run and hide, Im on some money goon shit
Married to the streets, honeymoon shit
Yeah, f-ck a bride
Im bout to go Van Gogh and I have to reach for slavery guns
That mean I draw a masterpiece
I spit bars quick as a spliff sparks
Writtensll kick start, split you in 6 parts
Which part if Im the shit and you a skid mark did you not get?
Put you in a ditch when its pitch dark
Make your bitch suck my dick, clark?
Thats what you get, heard that you a snitch
Now get that tattoo that say life, cause you a bitch[Biggie]
Lyrically Im untouchable, uncrushable
Ask your friends, whos the illest?
Lyrically Im untouchable, uncrushable
Ask your friends, whos the illest?[Joe Budden]
Joey,
I left the mask on, bury something, no disguise
It couldnt get more official if it was notarized
I want the pen on the jeweler for you to know whats fly
Top of the chain of command if Im playing my game
I better not overide, who think they over I
Hoping it vocalise, this aint even a group
Just one real nigga multiplied
Listen in brutally if you tryna get fast
I put my life on it like it was mast
Better pray that this vicodin last
If not rappers are in danger
Niggas is in a box, Im tired of rappers in a Wrangler
Will clap and rearrange ya, but I hate to make my pyschiatrist right
And its exactly what she said will happen with my anger
You cant relate to it, how you gon measure it, broke
Cant treasure it, jokers just embezel it
Its time to seperate the realness from the rhetoric
I think one statement from B.I should settle this[Biggie]
Lyrically Im untouchable, uncrushable
Ask your friends, whos the illest?
Lyrically Im untouchable, uncrushable
Ask your friends, whos the illest?[Royce Da 5'9"]
I said Im gunning for the muthaf-ckin king like a historical terror shot
Im sittin in a Hilton rich like Paris pops
Spread money around the whole town like ?
Compare us not, Im a terrible terrorist plot
You the character carrot top, while Im stomping on barriers til my ? stops
like a tricerotops when Im done roaming this earth
Bury my bones in Mariah or Careys box
Who you know answer with gun
Shadys our home, we live with the GOAT like Julio from Sanford and Son
Problem with a problem, got no love for my foes
Yall just wearing red bottoms, I got blood on my sole
We are dope we are postal, we not social
On Twitter we block Oprah and Deepak Chopra
Yall niggas think yall f-cking with us cause people quote ya singles
Yeah right, you making ya f-cking point with broken fingers
My dreams fulfilled like this cup full of potent tequila
And Im bout to raise up and toast to dreamers[Biggie]
Get your writing crew, get your writing crew
And they dopest rhymes, I get up in that ass everytime
Lyrically Im untouchable, uncrushable
Ask your friends, whos the illest?Get your writing crew, get your writing crew
And they dopest rhymes, I get up in that ass everytime
Lyrically Im untouchable, uncrushable
Ask your friends, whos the illest?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Immortal Technique

Felipe Andres Coronel (born February 19, 1978), better known by the stage name Immortal Technique, is a Peruvian rapper, and an urban activist. He was born in Lima, Peru and raised in Harlem, New York. Most of his lyrics focus on controversial issues in global politics. The views expressed in his lyrics are largely a mixture of socialist commentary on issues such as class hierarchy, poverty, religion, government and institutional racism.

Immortal Technique has voiced a desire to keep control over his production, and has stated in his music that record companies, not artists themselves, profit the most from mass production and marketing of music. He claimed in an interview to have sold close to 200,000 units of his three official releases.

Biography
Early life
Coronel is African-Peruvian and was born in 1978 in a military hospital in Lima. His family emigrated in 1980 to Harlem to escape the ongoing internal conflict in Peru. During his teenage years he was arrested multiple times due in part to what he has said was "selfish and childish" behavior. He attended Hunter College High School on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Shortly after enrolling in Pennsylvania State University, he was arrested and charged with assault-related offenses due to his involvement in an altercation between fellow students, the charges stemming from this incident led to him being incarcerated for a year. After being paroled, he took political science classes at Baruch College in New York City for two semesters at the behest of his father, who allowed Coronel to live with him on the condition that he go to school. Honing his rapping skills in jail, and unable to find decent wage-paying employment after his release, Coronel began working on the restaurants of New York while bad mouthing MCs whenever the opportunity arose. This, coupled with his victories in numerous freestyle rap competitions of the New York underground hip hop scene such as Rocksteady Anniversary, Braggin Rites and others, led to his reputation as a ferocious Battle MC.

Revolutionary Vol.1 and Vol.2
In 2001 , Immortal Technique released his first album Revolutionary Vol. 1 without the help of a record label or distribution, instead using money earned from his rap battle triumphs. Revolutionary Vol. 1 also contained the underground classic Dance With The Devil. In November 2002, he was listed by The Source in its "Unsigned Hype" column, highlighting artists that are not signed to a record label. The following year, in September 2003, he received the coveted "Hip Hop Quotable" in The Source for a song entitled "Industrial Revolution" from his second album. Immortal Technique is the only rapper in history to have a "Hip Hop Quotable" while being unsigned. He released his second album Revolutionary Vol. 2 in 2003. In 2004, Viper Records and, in 2005, Babygrande Records re-released Immortal Technique's debut, Revolutionary Vol. 1, to make it available to a wider audience. "Point of No Return" from Revolutionary Vol 2 was used as the entrance theme for Rashad Evans during the UFC 88 Main Event between Chuck Liddell and Rashad Evans.

The 3rd World and The Middle Passage

Between 2005 and 2007 Immortal Technique began working on The Middle Passage and The 3rd World, the two albums that would serve a follow up to Revolutionary Vol. 2 and complete the series. He was also featured on several movie soundtracks and video game soundtracks, all the while touring relentlessly and becoming heavily involved in visiting prisons to speak to youth and working with immigrant rights activists and raising tens of thousands of dollars for children’s hospitals overseas. He invested his money not in items that are usually associated with fame but rather in large pieces of farmland in Latin America. He created a writing grant program for high school students as well.
