While I was listening to the Uber nerd turned rapper "Canibus" He rhymed Optimus Prime in super cool way. I suggest hearing him say it. But if you want to read what he said here it is.

Can't remember the name but a song from Dr. Dre's 1999 Chronic album mentions Starscream and Megatron.


Rappers like Transformers.

 

That was gayer than Captain Planet. Seriously.

 

Have to agree with you there lol

 

I mean I was literally sitting there and waiting for him to say "THE POWER IS YOURS!!!"

 

theres alot of rap songs with transformer references for example:

"A space night like Rom, consume planets like Unicron
Blasting photon bombs from the arm like Galvatron"---rza

 

LOL, I tell you there is a lot of crap on youtube, and this confirms it

 

Judas Priest mentions Megatron in... Hellrider, I think? So yeah, Transformers in metal, too.  

 

"When it's on, we Transform like Optimus Prime"-DMX

 

"Transform on stage like a Decepticon..." -BDKane

 

Big Daddy Kane: '... transforming on stage like a Decepticon/ but I'm not animated like a cartoon...' - Smooth Operator

Ultramagnetic MCs/Ced Gee: 'But I'm Ced Gee, the rhyming inspector/ Delta Force, number one, Omega Supreme, Soundwave...' - Ced Gee (Delta Force One)

Rahzel: '... watch me transform *transforming noise*/Decepticon', 'Rahzel, call me Optimus Prime...'. 'Rahzel, Soundwave - controlling your whole tri-state' - Make the Music 2000

There's a song by Das EFX, Heltah Skeltah and Glaze called 'Game Over' which has the G1 tune in it.

And some other stuff I can't remember right now, aside from those mentioned above.

 

I think I know which so your talking about! But Canibus sucks!

 

Its called Lightspeed...haven't heard that song in years. I'll take your word that Canibus sucks, but then again thats 85% of all rappers.


But the rapper was Hittman not Canibus for this song.

lyrics
"I hang among hustlers, I slang and hoo-bang Bronson
when bustaz roll through, can't fuck with my bold crew
We will hold you captive and bust
cause gangbangin is the active, activity
where I be livin B, there ain't no Liberty Statue
Hope you got your gat, don't let them catch you
slippin, without yours, it's warfare outdoors
Ambulance, violent uproars
Trash niggaz takin out like chores I meet whores on tours
Jeans hot as pepper so I sip, champagne on stormy shores
We on some hardcore, pornographic
Totin Austrian firearms that's made out of plastic
In these drastic surroundings, it be sounding like
Lebanon, makin fools "RETREAT!" like Megatron and Starscream
Oh yeah I scream-on-stars
to get loot and crossover like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Get out your car son, that's how I came to bougie niggaz
Act bad one, it's either that or make front page stardom
I'm the Golden Child, chased by Sodom
?? gots my bulletproof it's hard to shoot me you hear?"

 

My cars like Transformers - Starscream, Decepticon/
Carry guns with big barrels the size of Megatron/
Yukmouth

 

I hate most of rap music.
But I like some of it.
And that one gnarls barkley song is a refrence.

 

This... is going to recieve lots of criticism from many people on Youtube. I have a feeling that it is.

 

not really. He just says I'm a transformer. I transform. Ha...haha very creative I must say lol.

 

Transformer by Gnarls is about schizophrenia, listen to it again.
DN

 

That's really not possible.

 

I cannot stand any kind of rap music yet some "artists" call it "self expression"...
