Hip-Hop & Rap: Ten Crowns From The Lamp — Gate 7

[Genie Announces] Gate Seven: Hip-Hop. [Gate Seven - Cinematic Hip-Hop] [boom bap drums, vinyl scratch, sampled guitar, heavy bass] [Male Lead] The guitar rang out, then the drummer got sliced Beat hit cold like a New York night MC Baraka stepped out clean Said, “Put your truth where the pocket been” Flat broke, still paid dues Bad luck in brand-new shoes City said no, I said watch this Lamp in my left, whole block lit No rented glow, no fake crown I came from cold where the rent beats down If the beat got teeth, let it bite my name I don't chase fire, I become the flame [Genie - Female, Magical] Good. Now speak the truth. A verse is a blade when the heart stays loose. [Male Lead] Then cut through the smoke Cut through the doubt Turn every closed door inside out [Genie] Seven crowns awakened. Three gates remain. [Transition] [boom bap drums loosen, bass gets warmer, hand percussion enters, guitar shifts to offbeat island chops] [Genie Announces] Gate Eight: Reggae and Caribbean.
