I Be Black Kripping
The Black Kripple with his twin
NWD Nigga with Disability
All in these academic streets
You will feel and see me
I be Black Kripping
Up first, the Black Radical Tradition
More then an graduate exam
Unveiling the silencing
Of Black disabled ancestors’ contributions
The Black Kripple with his twin
NWD Nigga with Disability
All in these academic streets
You will feel and see me
KRSOne, I’m the teacher
With Lateef McLeod another
Black Krip brother going for his ph.d.
Taking the Black community to school
On those little yellow buses, you called us fools
Now you have the Blues
Can’t understand our Krip-Hop curriculum
Putting all of you in the F column
Hahah you just got punked
Yeah and you all flunked
You can kiss my ass
I’m the future, you all are the past
One more time from the top
The Black Kripple with his twin
NWD Nigga with Disability
All in these academic streets
You will feel and see me
I be Black Kripping
Up first the Black Radical Tradition
More then an graduate exam
Unveiling the silencing
Of Black disabled ancestors’ contributions
The Black Kripple with his twin
NWD Nigga with Disability
All in these academic streets
You will feel and see me
KRSOne, I’m the teacher
With Lateef McLeod another
Black Krip brother going for his ph.d.
Taking the Black community to school
On those little yellow buses, you called us fools
Now you have the Blues
Can’t understand our Krip-Hop curriculum
Putting all of you in the F column
Hahah you just got punked
Yeah and you all flunked
You can kiss my ass
I’m the future, you all are the past
I be Black Kripping
The Black Kripple with his twin
NWD Nigga with Disability
All in these academic streets
You will feel and see
Bring on these comp exams
At UCLA, here I am
Just got my MA
Black Kripping all the way
To my dissertation
Ducking and diving institutional discrimination
They don’t want to see this Black Kripple man
I’m just Black Kripping first up, the Black Radical Tradition
Your mind is all mine
Got you thinking
Got you saying
“Yes yes, Black Krip Radicalization!”
By The Black Kripple aka NWA aka Leroy Moore
