And too hard for the fuckin' radio

Five lines, all lyrics, drawn from just two songs: Too Hard for the Fuckin' Radio (three lines) and Young Black Brotha (two). Confidence and the street each appear on 2 lines, with craft, money and hustle once apiece. The standout is the title song, which turns up with a promise of making raps "'til I'm 80 though" and a boast about playing the game and earning more than minimum wage. Small and tightly focused, this is the page for a reader who wants an artist's self-image in a handful of bars.
Playin' the game like it's supposed to be played
Makin' much more than a minimum wage
'Cause I'm the numero uno, could never be the dos
Young black brotha can never be a lover
He keeps a joint in one hand and heem in the other
Get in stack a bank and get the fuck out
Because a D-boy's life is cool at first
But in the end it's the pen or even worst, a hearse
