Put ya hands in the air for the culture/

We are b-boys dancing, djs scratching/
Graffiti artist graffin', emcees rapping/

Verse 1
We're celebrating 50 years of hip hop/
The music came and claimed the top spot/
From rock, world wide we number 1/
And the culture has the most influence under the sun/
1 to the 2 DJ drop the beat/
All the breakers on the floor ro, rockin it with their feet/
The MC grabs the the mic control the crowd/
And the writers on the back wall spraying it down/
Me and my crew get busy on the floor/
If u ain't come here to dance what you out here for/
Peace love and unity is what we all about/
Watch me rock the house while you scream and shout/
Yo we Keepin it real, keepin it true/
keep it hip hop thats what we do/
We keep it going 50 years strong/
And we gone keep rocking on, on & on/

Hook
The DJ is cutting on the ones and twos/
All the breakers to the floor bu bust a move/
The MC on the mic got beats and rhymes/
This is real hip hop the elements combined/
And the writers on the back wall spraying it down/
Clap clap ya hands when you here this sound/
50 years strong and we never gone stop/
'73 to infinity reppin' Hip Hop/

Verse 2
50 years of rocking, check the flow/
50 years of hip hop and we got more to go/
That's half of a century, what do you know/
Kool Herc did it 50 years ago/
The 70s kicked it off with 2 turntables/
A mixer and a microphone with the cable/
By the 80s everybody had a (boom)box and a tape/
Throw the cardboard down when it's time to break/
If you not trying to master the craft and why you doing it/
If you fakin the funk we will see thru it/
Plenty styles came and went they all gone/
Only the real ones can last this long/
Once again we made something out of nothing/
Others stay frontin I keep it 100/
I'm down by law that's why I keep it coming/
I'm here to stay my boombox stay bumping/

Verse 3
Turn it up if you love hip hop/
If you got a box then you gotta make it rock/
Put it on repeat like a 90s mixtape/
Pop it in the deck rewind and let it play/
When did you 1st fall in love with it/
I was just a shorty and brother started head spinning/
Then we watched beatstreet 5 times/
On that day i knew i was gonna break and rhyme/
