Masta Ace
Masta Ace is by far one of my favorite rappers. I love his crazy offbeat style and his hilarious and complex wordplay.
His early 90s work is some of the best music I've ever heard. I just wanna see how much appreciation there is
for a beast like Masta Ace here at MB. Because you recognize real skill, I've already seen his name get dropped
but I think we should have a place to gather all our Masta Ace love.
So what's your favorite track? Your favorite verse? Your favorite bar?
So I'll start it off with some of the dopest tracks from his group Masta Ace Incorporated.


The 2nd track, Saturday Nite Live, has my fave Masta Ace verse on it. It starts up at about: 1:48






It's the offbeat, onbeat, man with the mostest
Like hostess, I bake MC's oh and you knows this
So 1, 2, 3 for whom the bell is tolling
I'm rolling with umdada and I'm holding my swollen
And doing the project dance from back in the days
It's the Masta, the Ace and yo, I'm black and it pays
So bust the move on the mad offbeat tip it's
The dopest, but can you cope this, by far the hippest
Hat on sideways or backward, I knew a funky track would
Open up the ears of the black hood
I'm not Rough Mouth, Richie, or the fonz
I'm no joke, I school that ass like St. John's
Some come get a little bit, hit hard like a rock and
Open up the door cause I'm knocking
Ready or not, here I come in a hurry and
It's Masta Ace, Steady Pace, Paula Perry and
Eyceurokk with the 4 building stormin'
Welcome to the Bates motel, my name is Norman
I got the mad knife, I'm mad mean
I killed mad crews, I read mad magazine
So break it down for the heads with the dreads
For the baldies and the fades, for the blues and the reds
Here comes the crazy drunken style, take a swigga
As I take my finger of the trigger for the Lord Digga
