I mean, if somebody sits and talks to me about the music business I will tell him not to get in it I will tell him that it's very very very complicated And hard to actually cease something that living today [Chuck D] Politics of the.. business Rap miserable muscles is that when.. Cats all of a sudden look at BET And say: Awww man, we can do that Man, I can outbone Jay-Z [Ice-T] Yeah, in every one of these videos You're gonna see some sacks! You're gonna see somebody tote some money Or somebody acting like they shoot you It ain't much in between [Prince Paul] I have to tell the artist straight forward You are not that great, as you think you are You smoke too much f**ing weed And when.. when.. when you hear yourself back Everytime, you're coming out and hating yourself [Ice-T] Politics of the business The business, the business You know, that's.. that's the way to get f**ed in the business Of course, it's.. it's.. it's a cut throat business [Chuck D] It's what you know.. What you know'll save you in this business all the time [Ice-T] And it's.. I guess.. it's just the bottom line making a hit record And uhh.. it's not simple as people think You know.. it's very complicated Yeah, if it did, everybody would go make one right now Politics..
