"Language is fatal and it's hypnotizin'

I'm only emphasizin', I'm still all about business and enterprisin'

I'm super lyrical, a brain boosts the chemicals

That's used contenicals inside of my mental projectable."

Big Pun, "Superlyrical"

"Know I'm the the best when it come to doing this

And I be banging on my chest, and I bang in the east

and I bang in the west

And I come to give you more and I will never give you less

You will hear it in the street or you can read it in the press

Do you really wanna know whats next? lets go

See the way we on and we all

up in the race and you know

We gotta go, don't try to keep up with the pace

We struggling and hustling and sending in and getting in

And always gotta take it to another place

Gotta taste it and I gotta grab it

And I gotta cut all through his traffic

Just to be at the top of the throne

Better know I gotta have it, have it."

Busta Rhymes, "Look At Me Now"

"I'm like a head trip to listen to, cause I'm only giving you

Things you joke about with your friends inside your living room

The only difference is I got the balls to say it

In front of y'all and I don't gotta be false or sugarcoated at all

I just get on the mic and spit it."

Enimem, "The Real Slim Shady"

"I'm bossy

I'm the first girl to scream on a track

I switched up the beat of the drum

That's right, I brought all the boys to the yard

And that's right, I'm the one that's tattooed on his arm

I'm bossy

I'm the bitch you love to hate

I'm the chick that's raised the stake

I told young stunna he should switch to Bape

I'm back with an 808 'cause I'm bossy."

Kelis, "Bossy"

"I drop that "Black Album" then I back, out it

As the best rapper alive n---- ask about me

From Bricks to Billboards, from grams to Grammy's

The O's to opposite, Orphan Annie

You gotta pardon Jay, for sellin' out the Garden in a day

I'm like a young Marvin in his hey'

I'm a hustler homey, you a customer crony

Got some, dirt on my shoulder, could you brush it off for me?"

Jay Z, "Dirt Off Your Shoulder"

"Please don't speak to me like I'm that Drake from four years ago

I'm at a higher place

Thinkin' they lions and tigers and bears, I go huntin'

Put heads on my fire place, oh my, take time

Ain't no tellin'

Oh my, take time, ain't no tellin'."

Drake, "No Tellin"

“The Ripper, the master, the overlordian

Playing MCs like a old accordion

I get the inspiration from unnecessary station

Them sayin’ I was vacationin’

You can't quote with your weaker throat

Tryin to sneak a peek at how I freak the notes

Major MCs become minor B-flats

So retire the mic, get your chains and your bats

Here’s your chance to advance, get in your stance

I shoot the holster off your cowboy pants

Pure entertainment, tonight’s your arraignment

You’re guilty—face down on the pavement!”

LL Cool J, "Rampage"

"Drop the bass mane, the bass get lower

Radio say "speed it up", I just go slower

High like treble, pumping on the mids

Ya man ain't never seen a booty like this

And why you think ya keep my name rolling off your tongue

'Cus when he wanna smash I'll just write another one

I sneezed on the beat and the beat got sicker."

Beyonce, "Yoncé"

"Yo, thinkin' out loud

I must have about a milli on me right now

And I ain't talkin' about that Lil Wayne record

I'm still the highest sellin' female rapper, for the record

Man, this is 65 million singles sold

I ain't gotta compete with a single soul

I'm good with the ball, point game, finger roll

Ask me how to do it, I don't tell a single soul."

Nicki Minaj, "Truffle Butter"
