This is Luda’s verse from his upcoming release Theater of the Mind, which drops next Monday. The song is called “I Do It For Hip Hop”, and it also features Nas and Jay Z. But if you’re on the mailing list you know that already, cause you’ve been listening to this song for a couple weeks already. But I’m still workin on getting an audio player for the site, so you can listen while you read. Until then, use your imagination.

Now this what they call poetry in motion/my soul bleeds on the paper heart screams wit emotion/it’s my daily devotion the verses stay deeper than the ocean/so Hip Hop, you owe me a promotion/yeah I do a little boastin, and braggin/what’s all the commotion, and naggin about, cause I’m still the champ in the south/cause rappers get in the booth and I keep draggin em out/well they fired, and these pink slips I’m handin em out/cause this is theater of the mind/consider it a sign of whats to come next/my money’s just fine/bank filled with dough checks,terrorist threat flow/proceed to drop bombs like Mr Funkflex/but I don’t do it for the money, I do it from the heart/I’ll do it wit a beat box, I did it from the start/I do it for the DJs, I do it for the charts/the van gough flow luda do it cause its art/I do it for the fans, I do it on command/I do it for the front row, I do it for the stands/I spit it for the hood, I do it for the block/Since 9 years old I did it for Hip Hop
