Teach the student what needs to be taught. 'Cause black and white kids both take shorts When one doesn't know about the other one's culture, Ignorance swoops down like a vulture.

More quotes by KRS-One
I told Wayne to his face he was the dopest MC out. MC, not rapper. I told him to his face because I believe that, Wayne is nice! Wayne is bananas with his lyrics, with his whole delivery, with his whole thing. Lil Wayne is the man!

Are you tired of lyrical liars, passing fliers, Wannabe MC's, but really good triers, Tripping over mic cords, getting you bored, A total fraud, this kind of thing I can't afford!

The courage to be yourself is the essence of hip hop

Hip-Hop is being spoken through spirituality... Meaning that you'll be able to listen to it spiritually for yourself.

Too many MC's take that word 'emcee' lightly They can't Move a Crowd, not even slightly.

There's a Universe Instrument, where we apply Hip-Hop to astronomy, and we flush out the chemistry of Hip-Hop. We also flushed out the astronomy, to see where Hip-Hop is read in the stars.

Just black executives have a bias against older artists. We don't respect our elders. That's not because of white people. That's because of black leadership. We just have that problem, and it's something that I am going to spend the rest of my life trying to conquer.

Hip-hoppers are not interpreting what hip-hop is, and when we do interpret it, we interpret it as something immature, unorganized, and outlaw.

I make intelligence cool. I make spirituality cool. If we can make one's devotion to God cool, then I think I did a great thing. I can rest in peace.

When I say hip-hoppers, I mean black, white, Asian, Latino, Chicano, everybody. Everybody. Hip-hop has united all races. Hip-hop has formed a platform for all people, religions, and occupations to meet on something. We all have a platform to meet on now, due to hip-hop. That, to me, is beyond music. That is just a brilliant, brilliant thing.

It's just hypocrisy on hip-hop's part to cry racial profiling when your race is on TV acting like fools.

Rap is still an art, and no-one's from the Old School Cuz rap is still a brand-new tool

As a conscious rap artist, you should not want to be in a gangster market. You should be trying to establish your own market, create a place where you can be yourself and make some money and feed your family.

Rappers spit rhymes that are mostly illegal, MC's spit rhymes to uplift their people.

You know, you don't see with your eyes You see with your brain And the more words your brain has The more things you can see

Love yourself and your expression, you can't go wrong.

Hip is the knowledge and Hop is the movement.
