The Bronx is the northernmost of the five boroughs of New York City, where hip-hop is known to have started off. KRS-ONE is from this borough.

KRS-ONE tries to make his new rap have the old-skool vibe of some of his older tracks that were actually made in the old-skool rap era.

Grand Puba, will never fall under the category of a sucker MC, or a bad rapper.

If you try as hard as you can, and envision what you want to be, and working as hard as you can to accomplish it, you will later in life.

This is a shout out to MC Lyte, as Lyte as a Rock is the debut album of rapper MC Lyte. MC Lyte describes Lyte As A Rock to mean

It’s explaining, how heavy the young lady is

So, Jin is also saying that female MC’s are heavy, just as the male ones are.

A sire is a form of addressing kings. Jin is calling Run from Run-D.M.C. a sire, addressing him as a king. This is a reference to the song King of Rock where Run said:

Sucker MC’s should call me sire

(Not that he’s refering to himself as a sucka MC of course, he’s just giving credit where credit is due.)

To change the game means to do something revolutionary. Rosa Parks is a song by OutKast. Rosa Parks is an African-American civil rights activist, whom the U.S. Congress called “the first lady of civil rights”, and “the mother of the freedom movement”. Also, what Jin may also be referring to is how Rosa Parks changed alot of things and the way things are looked at (“the game”).

To say someone did there own thing, or did something there way, is to say they did something different than other artists that reflect themselves uniquely. Big Pun did this. A reference to the movie “Carlito’s Way”.

This song was released in 2005, about a year after Ol' Dirty Bastard died. Jin is referring to heaven as a building.

Nor Chuck D or Ice T liked police. This is shown on alot of their releases, such as It Takes A Nation of Millions and The Iceberg/Freedom of Speech
