Rap Game / Crack Game by JAY-Z
Lyrics & Translation
English
Uh
Uh, yeah
Won't stop niggas
"Somehow the rap game remind me of the crack game"
Jigga! Feel me!
Pa-pause, told ya motherfuckers, told ya
"See that rap shit is really just like selling smoke"
Uh, Roc-A-Fella
Geyeah
We treat this rap shit just like, handling weight
What they want we give it to 'em, what they abandon we take
Hit a rapper with consignment, let him know it's at stake
Put his ass in the studio, let him cook up a cake
When it's hot, get on my money spot in every state
Like the wiz in Camelot, the mom-and-pop's is the gate
But first we scope shit, advertise in every area
Let the fiends know hey, we got some dope shit
Gon' need a middle man, so we look to radio
Let 'em test the product, give 'em a promo show
Just a breeze, not enough to catch a real vibe
Then we drop a maxi single and charge 'em two for five
Ain't trying to, kill 'em at first just, building clientele
So when the album drops the first weeks it's on sale
But when demand grows it's time to expand yo
You don't want no garbage papi, it's ten grand per blow, for sure
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game"
"See that rap shit is really just like selling smoke"
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game"
"See that rap shit is really just like selling smoke"
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game"
"See that rap shit is really just like selling smoke"
Ge-ge-geyeah
I got that uncut raw to make a fiend's body jerk
Got your whole block now, pumping my work
My CDs is like keys for you Willie's who
Like to floss my cassette tapes in sixty-twos
And my singles like gems, you know the treys
Get you high for a while, but the, high don't stay
You need another fix, you better cop these last two bricks
'Cause when this shit flip, I'ma get on some other shit
Never pitching for a label, Jigga's the hook-up
You know my shit is fish-scale, y'all niggas is cook up
Just blow up, scream my name from Brooklyn to Dakota
They know my shit stretch without the baking soda
Went from an eighth, to a quarter, to a half a key
Priority's work wasn't right so I switched factories
Now I'm the new nigga, who figured I'd get the game locked
Now watch how the prices of your cocaine drop, papa
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game"
"See that rap shit is really just like selling smoke"
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game"
"See that rap shit is really just like selling smoke"
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game"
"See that rap shit is really just like selling smoke"
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game"
"See that rap shit is really just like selling smoke"

Rap Game / Crack Game (traducción LyricVerse Team)
Uh
Uh, sí
No detendrá a los negros
"De alguna manera, el juego del rap me recuerda al juego del crack"
¡Jigga! ¡Siénteme!
Pa-pausa, se los dije, hijos de puta, se los dije
"Mira, esa mierda del rap es realmente como vender humo"
Uh, Roc-A-Fella
Sí
Tratamos esta mierda del rap como, manejar peso
Lo que quieren se lo damos, lo que abandonan lo tomamos
Golpea a un rapero con consignación, hazle saber que está en juego
Ponle el culo en el estudio, déjale cocinar un pastel
Cuando esté caliente, ve a mi punto de dinero en cada estado
Como el mago en Camelot, las tiendas de barrio son la puerta
Pero primero exploramos, anunciamos en cada área
Que los adictos sepan, hey, tenemos algo de mierda buena
Necesitaremos un intermediario, así que miramos a la radio
Que prueben el producto, dales un show promocional
Solo una brisa, no suficiente para captar una vibra real
Luego lanzamos un maxi single y les cobramos dos por cinco
No intentamos, matarlos al principio, solo, construir clientela
Así que cuando el álbum sale, las primeras semanas está en oferta
Pero cuando la demanda crece es hora de expandirse, yo
No quieres basura, papi, son diez mil por golpe, seguro
"De alguna manera, el juego del rap me recuerda al juego del crack"
"Mira, esa mierda del rap es realmente como vender humo"
"De alguna manera, el juego del rap me recuerda al juego del crack"
"Mira, esa mierda del rap es realmente como vender humo"
"De alguna manera, el juego del rap me recuerda al juego del crack"
"Mira, esa mierda del rap es realmente como vender humo"
Sí-sí-sí
Tengo esa materia prima sin cortar para hacer que el cuerpo de un adicto se estremezca
Tengo todo tu barrio ahora, bombeando mi trabajo
Mis CDs son como llaves para ustedes, Willies, que
Les gusta lucir mis cintas de casete en sesenta y dos
Y mis sencillos como gemas, ya sabes los tres
Te elevan por un tiempo, pero el, subidón no se queda
Necesitas otra dosis, mejor compra estos dos últimos ladrillos
Porque cuando esta mierda cambie, me meteré en otra mierda
Nunca lanzando para un sello, Jigga es el contacto
Sabes que mi mierda es escama de pescado, ustedes negros son cocineros
Solo explota, grita mi nombre de Brooklyn a Dakota
Saben que mi mierda se estira sin el bicarbonato de sodio
Pasé de un octavo, a un cuarto, a media llave
El trabajo de Priority no era correcto así que cambié de fábricas
Ahora soy el nuevo negro, ¿quién pensó que tendría el juego bloqueado?
Ahora mira cómo bajan los precios de tu cocaína, papá
"De alguna manera, el juego del rap me recuerda al juego del crack"
"Mira, esa mierda del rap es realmente como vender humo"
"De alguna manera, el juego del rap me recuerda al juego del crack"
"Mira, esa mierda del rap es realmente como vender humo"
"De alguna manera, el juego del rap me recuerda al juego del crack"
"Mira, esa mierda del rap es realmente como vender humo"
"De alguna manera, el juego del rap me recuerda al juego del crack"
"Mira, esa mierda del rap es realmente como vender humo"
