Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth - The Creator Lyrics






It's time to dip dive dip, you might break a hip
To the sound that's legit, I've come to make a hit
I usually bust scratches with my brother, C.L. Smooth
But, I decided to get wreck on this groove
As I provide the slide you're going on a ride
I know the weather's nice, there's no need to play the outside
Guess who's on the flyer, the man of your desire
Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth all the honey-dips admire
Beats are rough and rugged, Pete Rock is the creator
Now I'm busting raps while switching cross-faders
Making sure my sound hits from here to Grenada
Honey gave me skins, man, I told her friends I ate her
But, wait up, I save this subject for later
But, it's time to get wreck with the creator

I'm addicted like a stoag, not into vogue
(Yo, Pete, there's a girl on the phone)
Tell her to hold cause I'm busy kickin' rhymes to the rhythm
Fortified with soul cause that's what I give 'em
Honeys form a line form a line cause I always seem to capture
Beats made of rupture, rhymes made of rapture
Far from illiterate, always seem to get a hit
If you try to step to this, don't even consider it
Skins when I want 'em, but, only when I need 'em
To set the record straight, I'll be damned if eat 'em
Call me Pete Rock, I make the girls flock
And if you want a beat like this, I got them in stock
So, flow with the flow, because you know I'm good to go
As I proceed to get wreck on your stereo
Not an imitator, just a crowd motivator
But, it's time to get wreck with the creator

Now, C.L. Smooth, cut it up like this
[*scratching*]

Now, I'm'a take a try and get a piece of the pie
If they give me one sec to get some wreck
Never filled with anger, a good body banger
If you try to step to this you'll get hung on my hanger
Before I say good-bye suckers gave a good try
But, point blank you just can't see this
My word is beneficial, Pete Rock is the issue
And I know you know my style is official
I might give a scratch (Yes, cousin)
Or I might kick a verse (No question)
Either one, I can't be seen, honeys call me tall and lean
And if you want to stick around, I'll show you what I mean
Not an imitator, just a crowd motivator
But, it's time to get wreck with the creator

It's time to get wreck with the creator
Get wreck with the creator
The creator

C.L. Smooth, get busy

    LYRICS:

    It`s time to dip dive dip
    You might break a hip
    To the sound that`s legit
    I`ve come to make a hit

    I usually bust scratches with my man, C.L. Smooth
    But, I decided to get wreck on this groove
    As I provide the slide
    You`re going on a ride
    I know the weather`s nice

    There`s no need to play the outside
    Guess who`s on the flyer
    The man of your desire
    Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth all the honey-dips admire

    Beats are rough and rugged
    Pete Rock is the creator
    Now I`m busting raps while switching cross-faders
    Making sure my sound hits from here to Grenada

    Honey gave me skins, man, I told her friends I ate her
    But, wait up
    I save this subject for later
    But, it`s time to catch wreck with the creator

    I`m addicted like a stoag
    Not into vogue
    (Yo, Pete, there`s a girl on the phone)
    Tell her to hold `cause I`m busy kickin` rhymes to the rhythm

    Fortified with soul `cause that`s what I give `em
    Honeys form a line form a line `cause I always seem to capure
    Beats made of rupture
    Rhymes made of rapture

    Far from illiterate
    Always seem to get a hit
    If you try to step to this
    Don`t even consider it

    Skins when I want `em

  17. S.... E....

    i remember this vid would always play on my way out the door for school, it never failed. i never got to see the whole thing. mainly, the part where CL jumps on the 1's & 2's. i spent that whole time thinkin CL was the dancing pirate LOL!

  18. S.... E....

  25. b.... ....

    1:35 yo pete, theres a girl on the phone! - Heavy D

  26. d.... r....

    old school rap sounded smooth sure but times change so does music. u cant actually picture this playing over peoples radios now and it sounding like it wasn't out of place. old school hip hop is awsome but the stough played today isn't so bad either.

    d.... r....

    the stuff today is fucking awful. There ain't a parking lot I drive into you won't hear something like this slamming out my speakers.

  27. Q.... D....

    Dopeness!

  28. C.... ....

    old school rap lyrics just flowed so smooth unlike artists today

  29. s.... ....

    I always loved this video because of the crazy dancing pirate.

  30. T.... G....

    I would say Premier takes the cake.

  33. D.... ....

    My first gig as a tour DJ was the summer '93 with a group called The Darkside. They had a production deal with Pete and CL. But I ended up DJing for CL and The Darkside because Pete didn't want to go on the road. He just wanted to produce. This was the beginnig of the end of Pete& Corey.

  34. �.... �....

    loving it, they was good when they was a duo

  35. B.... ....

    this makes me want to get down on the floor and do what i do best... break!

  36. S.... ....

    Puba's said it a number of times over the years.

  37. S.... ....

    Did you know your hero "Rick Ross" used to be a correctional officer...but lied about being a drug dealer cause obviously....the streets would write him off as a fag.
    Props to Trick Daddy for exposing this clown!!

  38. v.... ....

    Doesn't matter, Cyne blows them all out.

  39. J.... M....

    extrem1008 was right when he said u wont see a mc wearing a pirate hat these days

    O.... ....

    it does sound like grand puba

  62. d.... ....

    With all of these comments, someone may have said this already but here goes:

    Does anyone notice how much Pete Rock sounds like Grand Puba (Reel to Reel vintage)?

    The thing is, this came out first...so does this mean that Puba took his style from "The Creator?"

    *things that make you go "hmmm"...*

  63. c.... ....

    haha this beat is so classic, cl mixed it nice, n pete's flow is real funky if not as clever as Cl. CL's scratch solo makes me laugh. 5 star.

  64. E.... B....

    feeling this beat

  65. N.... ....

    godly beat

  66. J.... M....

    bassline is ill

  67. J.... M....

    so true this is when rap was cool and enjoyable [not including west coast hiphop]

  68. T.... B....

    Always loved this beat, plus Peter Rock shows kids he can spit as well as rock the tables.

  69. w.... ....

    when c.l. smooth wuz the dj

  70. g.... ....

    Actually, Puba is CL's cousin.

  75. K.... ....
