Crew, posse, gang: an informal group of individuals with a common identity and a sense of solidarity. The term is a bit flashy and is more likely to be heard in hip-hop lyrics than in spoken conversation. You step to me, and my whole squad will come down on you.

An example of real Hip Hop. Guru on the mic with the sick rhymes and lyrics. Premier with the tight cuts and true beats. As real as they can get, unlike all that 50 Cent, Ja Rule, Puffy, Nelly,all that Down South Garbage, and mainstream Hip Pop. Check out any Gang Starr album, Step In The Arena, Daily Operation, Full Clip, The Ownerz. They would never come out with something wack.

INt3nSe is a word derived from the hip/hop music culture, by the artist known as 'LiL Jon'. Lil Jon was going to use the word 'INt3nSe' as his 'every-song' word, but was unable to, as soon as his 'smoking incident' occurred. Lil Jon got high from smoking too much marijuana, he became deaf and stupid, leaving him with the repeated words of wonder : "WHAT", the agreeable word : "OKAY", and the thrilled word of: "YEEAAH". Other rappers stole his word INt3nSe , and are starting to use it in current songs, the word meaning "The best, most intellectual pimp" , and "Holder of tremendous cock". few songs that dubbed over the word "INt3nSe" :
"Rolling down the street, im INt3nSe , sippin on Gin and Juice" - Snoop Dogg "Drop it like its INt3nSe"-Snoop Dogg "My niggaz dont dance, we just get all INt3nSe , and , we do the roc-away, lean back" - Fat Joe "If you roll up in the club, and them niggaz get INt3nSe, and you step up to the face, what they gon do?" - LiL Jon Movie Titles that were replaced - "INt3nSe at the Roxburry" "How INt3nSe" "The Bourne INt3nSe" |

Mentally moonwalk Mixed media slang Banging in your boom box verbal violence Lyrical stylist In a time when rock hip hop rhymes are childish You can't tempt me with rhymes that are empty Rapping to a beat doesn't make you an emcee With your lack of skill and facility You're killing me And a DJ in the group just for credibility I heard that some of you are getting help with your rhymes You're not an emcee if someone else writes your lines And rapping over rock doesn't make you a pioneer Cause rock and hip hop have collaborated for years But now they're getting randomly mixed and matched up All after a fast buck and all the tracks suck So how does it stack up? None of it's real You want to be an emcee you've got to study the skill Who can rock a rhyme like this? Bring it to you every time like this? Who can rock a rhyme like this? Step, step up, step, step up So you pick up a pen and write yourself a new identity But mentally you don't have the hip hop energy With a tendency to make up stories Sounding like the only hip hop you've heard is top 40 And your record company is completely missing it All the kids are dissing it for not being legitimate So in a battle you can't hack it React with whack sh*t And get smacked with verbal back flips Get your arse kicked by fabulous battle catalysts It's taken decades for emcees to establish this You're new to hip hop and welcome if your serious But not on the mic Leave th... |

also known as b-boying, the main aspect of the dance element of hip-hop, ahead of popping, locking, crumping etc. A dance created by afro-americans that evolved from popping and locking, which involves style, smoothness, strength and self-control. There are 2 aspects, style which is dependant on your own personal dancing style, consisting of toprock, footwork,, the way you transition moves and of course random disses towards opponents during battle. Power consists of the moves the public wants to see, spinning on heads, windmills, hopping around on one arm such as the hand hop or jackhammer etc. Current pioneers and present time legends include Kujo from the USA and B-boy Junior from France. *starts off with a toprock which is immensely lame, goes for a sweep but makes a poor landing, reaks out into basic footwork including 6 and 4 step, before attempting a swipe on falling on ass* WOOO! I'M GOOD! OK, maybe I need some practice, dammit....
