Delta phase

"Because I Got It Like That" - Jungle Brothers

Ah yeah, 6th grade. Back then, I knew all kindsa shit about shit. And rap music was one of those things that I knew some shit about. And while these days I can't tell a Soldier Boy (sic) from a 50 Cent, I knew my shit about rap music in the late 80s and early 90s.

This was one of my favorite jams; it was on a K-Tel cassette with some other tracks like "Go See The Doctor" by Kool Moe Dee, and "Rappin' Duke" by that dude that sounded like John Wayne but didn't. And I'm sure I'm forgetting what all else was on that tape, but when "Because I Got It Like That" was playing in my headphones, and I was on the bus to school, no one could tell me nothing.

This track was the third rap song I learned all the words to, behind "You Gots To Chill" by EPMD, and "Paul Revere" by the Beastie Boys, and it was probably one of the few jams that I scribbled all the words down on notebook paper to make sure I learned it correctly.
