Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone!

Lawrence Parker aka KRS-One aka “The Teacha.” A man with both the knowledge and wisdom with the rhymes that grab your attention about politics and self righteousness. A man who can sometimes say things that most don’t agree with but his intentions are good. A man from the South Bronx who began with DJ Scott LaRock and DJ D-Nice also known as Boogie Down Productions. KRS demands so much respect both on and off the stage. He teaches others what the true purpose of hip hop is really about and that’s one thing I can truly admire about this man. His words are both powerful and strong with an attitude that makes you want to sit down, listen and learn. Through hip hop, KRS is just like Public Enemy or the X-Clan when it comes to politics but can also be just like Big Daddy Kane, Kool Moe Dee, LL Cool J or Rakim and could spit those heavy rhymes over those hard bass tracks with a bit of bragging by saying that he’s # 1! One of the most important rules written in hip hop history, you NEVER battle KRS-One and that’s a fact, jack. My all time favorite cuts from KRS include “I’m Still # 1”, “MC’s Act Like They Don’t Know”, “My Philosophy”, “Sound of Da Police”, and my personal hip hop anthem, BDP’s “South Bronx.” KRS is definitely a hip hop icon for me because he’s everything that hip hop represents and everything that I wanna be. To be able to say that I’m from the South Bronx also makes me proud and I always say that. I should be quoted by now. LOL! Happy Birthday to the Teacha and rest in peace DJ Scott LaRock.
