[Intro]
This one hyah, is a must
Let top selector crush y'all with skill
Cause ya know it's so skillful
Long time for reggae music no hip-hop music

[Verse: KRS-One]
All you see in the newspapers nowadays

And them been molested and them been beat up
And them been all sexed up, seen? Hahahah
But now KRS-One comes to give you this
Come down, come down, come down

[Refrain: KRS-One]
Well now you're sleepin' and you're creepin' with the stardom

You're creepin' and you're sleepin' with the stardom

[Chorus: KRS-One]
SAY GAL! Why you comin to the hotel?

SAY GAL! So leave the see-through dress upon the shelf

[Refrain: KRS-One]

And umm Kid Capri
And yo check out this next beat

Coming from and named after the “Boogie Down” Bronx, BDP originally consisted of rapper KRS-One (the “Blastmaster”), DJ Scott La Rock, and the “human TR-808”, beat-boxer D-Nice (all pictured above). The personnel and subject matter would change over the years of the group’s existence. They would move from being gangster rap pioneers with their classic debut album, 1987’s Criminal Minded to a more positive and Afrocentric focus on later albums like the 1990 release Edutainment.

While BDP is no longer extant, group leader KRS-One continues to release albums, perform, and even write books.
