WARNING: This is the cypher the way that I hear it. I could be getting some words wrong. Hell, next year tell them to enunciate. Lol. But I think that transcribing the cyphers are a great way to see if these rappers are really SAYING anything. Yeah, it sounds good on a beat, but fool…what did you really SAY? You be the judge….who actually SAID something this year?
THE CYPHER
T.I Hosts this first cypher:
Trae Tha Truth ( Houston, TX)

Iggy Azaelia (Sydney, Australia)
Look/ The game’s in repair and paparazzi following/ stalking for shit I’m wearing/ Huh/ Young Iggy I’m stunting while bitches frontin/ If I’m not your competition what you mad for/ Nothing/ Normally I’m no subliminal criminal/ but you get famous if I say your name in an interview/ So I mean it when I say I hope they never remember you/ So you finally realize that we’re not that into you/ Look/ I’m back to the murder bidness/ I’m killing the competition/ So stuntin’ is just a given/ Position to get a win & going against it is a sin/ Flowing the next level/ Lifestyle Rolex bezzlin’/ The accent just sound like Rex spin/ I’m that sick/ Rozay and stack fear/ i.a., i.e. I’m that bitc/ Tip heard it one time and said “that’s that shit”
Side bar: Iggy’s flow and swag was so tight that I need to Google her and make sure she is added to my MP3 playlist like ASAP before Rocky. Okay…. I see what you’re working with. She did the damn thing. Okay, back to business.
