CyHi The Prynce - Basquiat Lyrics
Cyhi! Yeah
[Verse 1 - CyHi The Prynce:]
I got a paintbrush that you can't touch
Went on a date with the devil but I paid dutch
With a Kate Spades clutch
Mona Lisa, Melanie Fiona Features
Got her in the loft heavily on the reefer
Ran up in her like a sneaker
Got her drinking margaritas
The pussy was picture perfect
Had her painted on the easel
Fly like an angel or an eagle on the needle
I'm from where they steal the speakers out your Regal
Man these young niggas evil shoot it out with the people
To my hood I'm like the tower to the people out in Pisa
You see this pyramid and say it's Illuminati
But not me, the first thing I think about is Egypt
Had your bitch doing kegels in the Begal
Went from "it was nice to meet you" to "taking off your top"
Ever since I met her at that coffee shop
She would come to the crib we would talk a lot
Listenin to Beethoven, Mozart and Bach
Now I'm kissin on her spot got her awfully hot
Sex is a art it's just like a Picas-
So don't do it for me do it for Basquiat
[Hook:]
Ask me if I'm on the radio, I'm probably not
But I don't do it for the radio
I do this shit for Basquiat
So I don't care if you think my songs are hot or not
Cause I don't do this shit for y'all
I do this shit for Basquiat
[Verse 2:]
I write my graffiti in Swahili
I don't follow, I'm not Phoebe
Fuck diabetes, I'm a die chic
That's the reason I'm dressed in this dashiki
Fly as Tuskegee, riding to my CD
Killin' your artists they ask me to sign a treaty
Edgar Allen, mixed with that nigga Idi
I mean can't nobody fuck with me in my city
When it comes to art, I'm the man bro
The fans follow me, everywhere my Van Gogh
Michelangelo, to your girl I'm Vermeer?
Shorty c'mere let me put these pearls in your ear
I been around the world in a year
I got the type of bars that could serve you a beer
And some Sake shots
Like the ones you get at the hibachi spot
Don't get your bitch dug out I'm Bobby Cox
My flow it'll bite your head off like Ozzy Oz
Born to be the greatest, so until my body rot
I'm the best overall, Osh Kosh Bigosh damn
Let the Gods be Gods
And get the guys that defy the odds
And your flow is Bob Ross
And my shit is more like Basquiat
[Hook]
[Verse 3:]
Imagine Leonardo, in a Gallardo
I'm doin well I always be at the Fargo
Color purple got me feelin like Harpo
I'm like a art show, at the Louvre
Andy Warhol on your whore's wall
Shawty quit fuckin with them cornballs
I'm Rembrandt on tour y'all
Or Jean Michel without his shoes
I'm Kanye but not as rude
I'm Banksy on top of blues
I'm Kidult with a tude
On the fire extinguish I made the news
G.O.O.D. music, we here to push the culture
We don't do it for exposure
Never confuse a painting with a poster
I can't believe you would disrespect Basquiat
[Hook]

CyHi The Prynce Basquiat Comments
Don’t get ya bitch dug out I’m Bobby Cox
He ain’t have to do Bob Ross like that tho 😂
Bob Ross a GOAT. Major Respeck on his name
Cyhi is dead ass the best right now. He is straight 🔥 🔥🔥🔥 i feel like it went from rakim to nas to big pun to cyhi would up. These dudes are just dope. And embody what hiphop is suppose to sound like
Cy hi too sick and way underrated one of the best rappers in the game period.
2019 still relevant
Hella relevant.
Thank you cyhi. You're art made me invest in art. Art i didnt know i posessed. Basquiat.!!
The fans follow me everywhere my Van Gogh #puregenius
My favorite rapper, but the fact he was in special ed classes and told he wasn't normal blows my mind. You can tell he's super intelligent. but this dude makes songs like this constantly. So deep. His wordplay and metaphors are unmatched by anyone, probably ever. He's so deep too. I've never heard a verse from him that wasn't good. I cannot believe he can't catch that break, but being the ghost writer for Kanye on majority of his songs definitely keeps him paid. But he has done way too many songs, mixtapes to not be recognized with the likes of jcole and Kendrick
He does it again. 🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍💥💥💥👂👂👂👍👌✊🙌🙏☝💪💓
Masterpiece = Basquiat 👀
Andy warhol on your hoes wall shorty quit fcking wit those cornrolls . Love this track basquiat I'm banksy on top of blues I'm kanye but as rude .... 👌🎧

weak designer everywhere while cyhi on the self smh.
We got til August though. #NDOS
That’s a bar. 🔥🔥🔥
This beat is ripped off from K-os. "Superstar Pt zero"
Beancrew49 nahhh this beat goes all the way back to the song Soho - Hot Music
Sampled is the word we use in hip hop, not sampled, cus K-OS, a great hip hop artist who def respects the culture, sampled the beat as well.
It’s amazing how Soho sampled this from Skains Domain. It was literally like a 3 second segment in the entire song.
Glad lyrics are coming back
omar grissom you're late
Eugene H Taylor IV just be happy he made it. lol
" my last project was a masterpiece, like a slave owner's gun" - Cyhi on the team backpack cypher.

Anybody else catch the "Fly as Tuskeegee" line, amazing
Torrey Brett yea
Go look at Sway in the morning video with Cy-Hi and he gonna have you hyped as hell!!!
I was ashamed to say I didn't know who Basqiat was. This guy is a mega beast!
This guy is a fucking g, meaning genius. this track is ridiculous. along with the beat and his intelligent yet different style. Do it for the art, do it for Basquiat.
@CircleInfinite I even thumbed up my own comment for being such a G to recognising this G. one of my favourite rappers and i got great fucking taste.
@CircleInfinite lmao i agree though
taste like salt?
Man this guy got bars
Man I like this dude he got bars
That bass line. :)
The beat is perfect !
I know all of you wouldn't be on here if you didn't know this already, but he's tremendously talented and underrated.
cant stress enough
cuz i dont do this shit for yall!
Basquiat
I didn't know real music still existed. Thank you.
Trap Nerd™ I'm just finally discovering this project. Needed this
Can anybody tell me what the line: "Never confuse a painting with a poster" is about? Thank you. :)
painting is real and last longer, a poster is fake and does not last.
@Keara Muguti umm a poster is real too, what do u mean by real? and im pretty sure both last the same
real(painting) from the fake(poster)
A painting takes time to paint and is authentic as a poster is just something printed and takes not talent etc.
Definitely one of my favorite songs i've ever heard
This bad boy is HOT!
Who is he cold asl
When it comes to art, I'm the man bro. The fans follow me everywhere my Van Gogh.
I likes
Really wish this were a music video. Artistic and vibrant as fuuuuuck
Never confuse a paint with a poster.........that was cold
I almost gave up as a rapper when he said that
@Danniel Reyes lol why man.
@D. Reyes you should your stuffs trash
+B_ Habs haha
You know this tape has shat on a few rapper's albums. Yeezy needs to pay it forward to this guy on good music. Fuck that 2chainz hype, get this dude up next for GOOD.
kanye east, lol u rite, i fuks wit ya,cyhi my favrite
"went on a date with the devil but i paid dutch" ... hahaha
I don't understand that line
I got paint bush that you touch hip hop is a real art
Basquiat was an artist who was mostly famous for being a junkie. Died of OD at 27.
Black Hystori Project !!!!! 🙌
Want a music video for this!
man if you are a fan of art or have studied art this song is appreciated on a whole other level. i particularly like the Vermeer painting "girl with a pearl earring" reference. Quality track.
Cyhi be snap'n and you did yo shit on dat beat cuz.
Easily my favorite joint. The feel is too cool.
Under rated as fuck
Basquiat would be proud.
"Never confuse a painting for a poster". BEST NIGGA OUT
this shit's dope man
