For the Love Video (MV)

Still do it for the love love,
Control the heat that I hold like the
Ove glove
Still watch my favorite artist tear the club up
Still ready to battle nigga like
"What what!"

Keep the torch lit, remain passionate
Love it like I'm watching
Yo Mtv Raps kid
Or Music Box with Ralph MacDaniels
Same time as Rap City I'm flipping the channels
Used to rush home, can't miss a vid
Ed Lover do the dance yo that was my shit
Culture raised me when life was crazy
Crack rock 80's we latch key baby's
Hightop fades to the Raekwon waves
Kick Bonita Applebum and try to lay on babes
The new era is def some cats is raw
But some of ya'll act like you don't love it no more

So where the love go?
Nobody bussing moves in the club yo
My man Vu said create it and hustle
The bottom line is you gotta have the love yo

Hated cops but I watched New York Undercover
Williams and Torres dressing fresher than a mother f*cker
I used to watch Juice every day before I went to school
Thought Pac wasn't acting but the shit was hella cool
Early 90's was the rap movie Renaissance
Boys in the Hood, Menace, CB4, Set it Off
It was special then, we would represent
Hella bootlegs then yo 2 for $10
My favorite rappers yo they on the screen
Who's the Man , New Jack City, House Party 3
The last one was wack tho, still supported it
Such a fan of the culture I loved all of it
Now it's the norm and it almost gets ignored
I guess the over saturation gots the fans getting bored
A few flicks came out and a couple was raw
But some of ya'll act like you don't love it no more

So where the love go?
Ya bootleg it to death it''s f*cked up yo
We need more Spike Lees and more Russels
In the culture yo the money is the muscle
So, I still do it for the love love
Control the heat that I hold like the "Ove Glove"
Still watch my favorite artist tear the club up
Still ready to battle nigga like "what what!?!?"

There's few mc's in the mainstream, but a lot of wrappers
That's with a "w" these cats are the wackest
In my opinion, these lyrical minions
Set the culture back like a cul de sac
Now, some of the cats with the coldest raps
Will go over listeners heads like fitteds and snapbacks
But back in the gap only the best were heard
Some expanded our minds and finessed they words
Now the concepts limited , borderline primitive
I'll crush you line for line if you want to get sensitive
I put my mind behind bars,
Your rhymes put our kind behind bars
So where's your love for the culture?
This is a hustle huh? That makes you a vulture
You do this for rotation, I do this for creation
And that remains the same no matter how much I'm making

So one time for the love yo
Yo love something then you never give it up yo
My man Vu said create it and hustle
It's not a labor if you do it for the love yo.
