Ice Cube, Public Enemy, Big Daddy Kane - Burn Hollywood Burn
Song lyrics
Burn, Hollywood, burn! I smell a riot
Going on. First they're guilty, now they're gone.
Yeah, I'll check out a movie,
But it'll take a black one to move me.
Get me the hell away from this TV,
All this news and views are beneath me,
So all I hear about is shots ringing out
About gangs putting each others head out.
So I rather kick some slang out,
All right, fellas, let's go hang out
Hollywood, or would they not
Make us all look bad like? I know they had.
But some things I'll never forget, yeah!
So step and fetch this shit,
For all the years we looked like clowns,
The joke is over, smell the smoke from all around.
Burn, Hollywood, burn!
[Ice Cube:]
Ice Cube is down with the P.E.
Now every single bitch wanna see me,
Big Daddy is smooth, word to mother.
Let's check out a flick that exploits the color,
Roaming through Hollywood late at night,
Red and blue lights, what a common sight!
Pulled to the curb, getting played like a sucker,
Don't fight the power, motherfucker!
[Big Daddy Kane:]
As I walk the streets of Hollywood Boulevard,
Thinking how hard it was to those that starred
In the movies portraying the roles
Of butlers and maids, slaves and hoes.
Many intelligent black men seemed to look uncivilized
When on the screen,
Like, I guess I figure you to play some jigaboo
On the plantation, what else can a nigga do?
And back women in this profession,
As for playing a lawyer, out of the question,
For what they play Aunt Jemima is the perfect term,
Even if now she got a perm.
So let's make our own movies like Spike Lee
‘Cause the roles being offered don't strike me,
There's nothing that the black man could use to earn.
Burn, Hollywood, burn!
