    Let me tell you what's up with all these

    New

    York cats

    They got too rich and lost the grip on rap
    G

    They let the country boys

    take over the soundtrack
    A

    And blow the
    G

    Superman cape straight off their back
    Em

    Now everybody know

    where all the flavors at

    And if there's any drama

    I'll be handling that
    G

    I gotta switch the singles and

    walk in the fall back
    A
    G

    Late night conference calls and all that
    Em

    Denzel, I'm the first

    LL

    I remember where I came from,

    hot since day one
    G

    Queens in the building,

    I spank these children
    A

    But not seeing that I switch styles
    G

    like a chameleon
    Em

    A lot of wanna be kings,

    but I'm the real one

    All these cats playing dumb,

    they know the deal, son
    G

    Use rap like caps, I will peel one

    And get addicted to how I spit it
    A
    G

    I treat my beef like a blunt lick and split it

    My shit's wicked, fiends can't forget it

    Take it in your lungs,

    G

    Too many debates about what

    Mr.

    A

    What can I say, nigga?
    G
    Em

    God's good, I'm gifted

    But I won't hit you with

    the same old money rap

    Cause most of them money rappers

    need to give you your money back

    so in ject me now
    Em

    And I'm the best,

    fuck pound for pound

    When shit gets serious,

    I rock the ground

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
