Title: Calligraphy rap diss thread!
Post by: schin on June 25, 2014, 11:48:13 PM
A-hem...

Chillin' on the secretary table, tryin' not ta catch a nib, I'd rather catch a beat
But everywhere I go seems trouble follows me
But if you feel like I feel lil scribe follow me
But this penwoman wants battle so blood-ink it gotta be
Sorry engrossers but that's how it gotta be
Yeah, that's how it gotta be...

Look
I kill penmen before I even hear the pen drop
I smoke calligraphers like nibs in the sweet spot
You been cold scribe, me - me I'm still hot
Whether I'm dashin the word or oblique in this same spot
You been got, you have not, you bleed through, you just spot
I'm Principality right, you barely even Speedball
I can get you splattered, just gotta give the say so
Your nib supplier keep callin even though I said no ho
Say she want a real script, but I ain't really feelin it
Still chillin' on this Rhodia, in a minute I be killin it
First I letcha build heat, then I be spillin it:
Magnussons, McCaffreys, Clairefontaine,
I live for the glory, you died for the fame
I burn you in flames, my inkwell go insane, from broad pen to ladies hand, your flow way too tame
Please step off my level, you can't catch my game
I make nibs tremble, you make 'em complain
I never stopped ornamentaling', like Daniel Ames
Like Louis Madarasz, it's the kill penmen cycle
I kill scripts wash scripts rinse and recycle
Bangin' on your guidelines like I'm bangin on the beat, like I'm calligraffitin' on the street
So your script you can keep, cuz your font is weak
Ha
Read it and weep!!

If you're having pen problems I feel bad for you, Schin,
 I got 99 problems but a pen ain't one
 
 I got the Quiche brigade and the Schin parade
 Foes that wanna make sure my hair's all greyed
 Pen critics that say my letters all upside down,
 I'm an Aussie, you guys, don't make me frown
 If you grew up in the terra australis
 You'd know how the ink flows, yeah, get this

 I'm like hey cynics, you can kiss my whole butt,
 If you don't like my writing you can do your own stuff
 Got beef with brides if I don't write their words
 They don't pay my rates, well I don't give a turd
 Wedding mags try and use my poor script
 So brides can give em more cash for it ... f****rs
 I don't know what you take me as
 or understand the letter skillz that Moya has
 From Gothic to Uncial, ladies, I ain't dumb
 I got 99 problems but a pen ain't one
 Hit me
 
99 problems but a pen ain't one
If you're having pen problems I feel bad for you, son,
I got 99 problems but a pen ain't one

Man,
I know I'd be just as good as y'all
It's fate's interfering with my speedball.
My pussy's lying on my table yo
Spillin' da ink with its furry paw
My man keeps wanting to talk to me
Don't let me unpack my McCaffery
The kids keep whinin' for food
They don't get writin's just as good!

I just know I could take y'all
If fate just don't kick away my speedball!

My boss keeps tellin me, "girl!
Do this and to that", man, I'll hurl
Ain't got no time
To write or to rhyme

But, hey,
I just know I could take y'all
It's fate keepin me in its thrall!
It's fate, yo
It's fate, yo

PS: My pussy is on my table, seriously. No obscenity intended.

You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
 
Break it down
Stop, Moya time
 
Every time you see me
The Moya's just the best
I'm dope on the lightbox and I'm magic on the desk
 
Now why would I ever stop doing this?
With others making' writings that just don't hit
I've toured around the town, from Coburg to Fitzroy
It's "Moya, go Moya, MC Moya, yo, Moya"
And the rest can go and play
 
You can't touch this!

Congratulations!  THis is awesome, Schin.  Funny--the thing I wanted to do for the Sumer exchange (my envelopes are done but I don't know what's going in them) was a rap.  But since I don't listen to rap, I got stuck on the first 2 lines.  I know how I'd like it to end, though.  For now I think I'll abandon that idea--your rap is too much.   :D

But what really, TRULY amazes me is the way the community, perhaps any community, almost moves like a school of fish.  It's beautiful and more spontaneous than you'd realize. 

Some know that my husband and I dance Argentine tango--have been since around '98 or '99.  The thing most think of as tango is the stuff of shows.  What we do is purely social and like calligraphy it is a 'language' spoken around the world and an international community.  We could go to most any city and find a milonga (tango dance party) and dance the same dance with a host of new partners.  But in one's home community, it is amazing how many of us will show up at a milonga, wearing something similar as if we'd planned it--it could be a color, a style, pants or dresses.  It happens quite often, mostly among the women, but sometimes the men too, and I wonder how it happens.  For instance, one night almost everyone had on some shade of turquoise or blue or green. 

I'm seeing the same thing in this community and it's fascinating, and it's happened to me several times...  I'll be thinking about something obscure--like a color of ink, or a particular letter...or a rap (can't get more obscure for me than that) and Schin or somebody, goes and does it and posts it.  Anyone know how this happens?

Kickin' it oldschool, yo. LA be representin'.

With so much drama in da Insta-G
It's kinda hard stickin' to calligraphy
But I, somehow, some way
Keep comin up with funky lettering like every single day
May I, kick a little something for the G's (yeah)
and, make a few ends as (yeah!) I breeze, through
Two in the mornin' and my whole arm's still movin'
cause my momma ain't home

I got JNB supplies in the living room
and, I ain't stoppin' til six in the mornin'
So what you wanna do
I got a pocket full of penholders and my homeboys do too
So turn off the lights and close the doors
But (but what) we don't love them vintage nibs, yeah!
So we gonna flourish the hell outta this bird
G's up, nibs down, while all you penmen bounce to this

Scrollin' down the sheet, smokin' iron gall, slingin' on ink and fumes
Laid back (with my mind on penmanship and penmanship on my mind)
Scrollin' down the sheet, smokin' iron gall, slingin' on ink and fumes

Ode to Brian Smith

Yo, VIP, Let's Kick it!
ink ink baby, ink ink baby
All right stop, wipe your nib and listen
Brian is back with his brand new invention
Flame maple grabs a hold of him tightly
Works on his lathe daily and nightly
Will he ever stop? Yo, I hope no
Turn off the lights and this oblique will GLOW
To the extreme he shapes a flange like vandal
light up a room with his Spencerian handle

If there was a problem yo he'd solve it
Check out the finish while my Brian revolves it

Never liked to bang for fun
But tired of being on the run
Tired of lookin' like I'm yellow
"An order of eggs yo", I said to the fellow
Hardboiled yo, ain't no joke
Can't abide no slimy Yoke

Get ready for your mind to be BLOWN!
I'm about to blow the roof off this FORUUUUUUUUUUM!!!!


Copperplate rules be too strict
parameters confinin
I play it fast, play it loose
The game I'm redefinin

So while you're playin it safe
just copyin trhe masters
I'm keepin it fresh
I'ma blow it thru the rafters

You think you somethin special
with dem 55 degree slanties
ya'll gotta unbunch
dem copperplate panties

My baseline be bouncy
and I angle where I please
so sit back, relax
and enjoy the script tease

Take your stuffy boy Spencie
and your uptight ladies hand
Cuz I'm servin up my modern ways
Hot and on demand

You think you so fancy
with your custom obliques
I got the plastic speedball
and can shut you up for weeks

You think you so nice
with  your vintage nib caches
gimme hiro 700's
and I'll blow you all to ashes

I be blowin thru dem 'vlopes
like twenty fo seven
the recipients be like
"She's an angel sent from heaven"

My writin be fly
buy my writin ain't free
I ain't no Joi Hunt
this ain't no charity

you aint payin, I ain't playin
gotta show da bills to get my quills

They see me scrollin
They hatin
Patrolling they tryin to catch me writin’ dirty
Tryin to catch me writin’ dirty
Tryin to catch me writin’ dirty…

Of my script I’m proud
I be swankin it
They hopin that they gon catch me writin’ dirty
Tryin to catch me writin’ dirty
Tryin to catch me writin’ dirty…



Police think they can catch my point unCLEAN
Hairlines so thin they ain't easy to be SEEN
When you see me write they can see the GLEAM
And my shine on the desk and the lightbox SCREEN
Write with a new chick, she like hold up
Next to the playstation controller is a full shot of OAK GALL


Turn a full stop to a COMMA
Girl you ain't know, I'm slick like Joe ViTOLO
An smashin scribe with no vows of CHASTITY
Nib don’t wipe itself so I pull in all the LADIES
Modernists patrolling you know they HATE ME
Music turned all the way up until the MAXimum
I can speak for some nibbas tryin to jack poor man’s MUSSELman
But we packin some 303, can’t afford da PrinciPALITY


Security cell, I'm grippin OAK GALL
Speakers be blarin and my corners I’m SQUARIN
Twist and twistin dat PEN staff
Police pull up from behind and I stick it in his THROAT
Nibba’s all down gotta stop this new POLLUTION
Their ‘spression change nibbas like who is that enGROSSIN?
This the Emperor Quiche n’ we out n we be GUILDIN!!

Got mail in every city except Fort Crack and I'm still ain't losin

Y’all nibbas reppin’ the engrossers’ crib yo
Listen up, these new agers thinkin they be Hiros
Dem modernists be wrong, da hood still STRONG
Y’all try an f*** wid us for a second too LONG
We gone put those 41’s where they don’t BELONG

Inspired by some uptight broad penners lol

Because you know
I'm all about that swirl, bout that swirl, no fraktur
I'm all about that swirl, bout that swirl, no quadrata
I'm all about that swirl, bout that swirl, no textura
I'm all about that swirl, bout that swirl...

Yea it's pretty clear, I don't do no broad pen
But I can twist it, twist it
Like I'm supposed to do
Cause I got that curl curl that all the brides chase
And all the right loops in all the right places

I see the computer workin' that Gothic font
We know that sh*t ain't real
C'mon now, make it stop
If you got obliques, obliques, just raise 'em up
Cause every spacing and x-height is perfect
From the bottom to the top

Yeah, my mama she told me don't worry about your script
She says, "Brides like them flourished invites for guests to keep"
You know I won't be using no parallel it's a bore
So if that's what you're into then go ahead and don't flex no more

Because you know
I'm all about that swirl, bout that swirl, no uncial
I'm all about that swirl, bout that swirl, no rotunda
I'm all about that swirl, bout that swirl, no carolingian
I'm all about that swirl, bout that swirl...

I'm bringing spirals backkkkk
Go ahead and tell them ancient scribes that
Na, I'm just playing. I know you think you're baaaad
But I'm here to tell ya
Every inch of your script is perfect from the bottom to the top

I grew up in the projects.  I was always told women shouldn't rap, smoke and I won't say what the last one was.  At any rate, you ladies put most paid rappers to shame.

Yo, Schin Shady...

I’m bringing broad pen back
Them pointed writers don’t know how to act
You know you're special but we're behind your back
So turn around and we'll pick up the slack.

Inky babe
You see these Tape nibs
Brush pens, wide nibs, let's engrave
Foundation, Fraktur, yeah we misbehave
It’s just your points that make me feel this way


Oh Madarasz
(Go ahead, be gone with it)
Yeah Platt
(Go ahead, be gone with it)
Oh Mr Musselman
(Go ahead, be gone with it)
Drinks on Schin
(Go ahead, be gone with it)
Let me see what yo flourishing with
(Go ahead, be gone with it)
Look at those nibs
(Go ahead, be gone with it)
Broad pen makes me smile
(Go ahead, be gone with it)
Go ahead
(Go ahead, get down with it)
And get your broad pen on
(Go ahead, get down with it)

Get your broad pen on
(Go ahead, be gone with it)

Get your broad pen on


I’m bringing broad pen back
Them old penmen just don’t know how to act
Come let us make up for the things you lack (oooh)
'Cause your nibs are snappin off, but ours are gonna last

Take 'em to the bridge!

I’m bringing broad pen back
Yo copperplaters, watch how I attack
If pointed pen's your thing, best watch your back
Cause we'll mix it up for you and that’s a fact!


I'm so sorry.

What up what up folkssssssssssssssssss!! DJ Fae be back in da house for some jam yo!

Some words from the author: (in a country accent)"Dis song.. be a sad song. A sad love song, yannoe. For dose lonely damned days.. with a shrivelly paper.. ain't got no words in dem mind..a country rapper with a guitar and red snapper.. chillin w a dog out in the front porch."

"You ready?!!!!!!!!!

Just pick up the beat y'all
don't hesitate no mo!
Stick dem tiny nibs in now,
and let dat ink flo'!

Put a swish to the left
And swivel to the right
Got a splatter? That's no prob,
Call it star galactic sight!

Got a stabby nib?
Now, that's a real rap battle,
Ruination, condemnation...
..we got a score now to settle!

Don't get me wrong yo,
while it ain't no heavy metal
but it's gonna break dat little heart
of H.P Behrensmeyer!

Acid's gonna sting, yeowch!
No, don't drip gall on the couch!
Fix it, wipe it, smudge it, no, erase- nah
Toss it and don't pout!

Badda bing badda boom
We will nuke this babadook!
Take it to the godforsaken land of
friggin Nincompoop!

Grummy's got this potent potion
from exotic Arabia!
Maybe now our letter will finally
not end with just a 'Dear..'!"

Piss out. y'all

I be

I be new to this game of calligraphy
If you witnessed my writtin’ then you would see
My tight miniscules all over da place
Slow down, slow down, it ain’t no race

I be doin’ ten mill spacin’ to make it look neat
On 32lb paper tiz expensive per sheet
Usin’ my walnut ink I mixed it myself
It’s gone rather crusty from sittin’ on da shelf

Mr Johnston I be tryin’ to master your art
To be honest wid you I be willin’ to start
With the tiny alphabet twenty six little letters
Learnin’ how to do it properly from Flourish Forum betters

Viewing Ken Frasers hands that he writes real neat
Is inspiration for many when sat in their seat
Lookin' at the screen sat lookin’ in awe
Several times the jaw picked up from the floor

So many talented people write and display
They spent many hours scribbling away
Many different hands showin’ on da screen
Several different nibs used written in ink of green

This headache of strain I be nursin’
When I mess up my letters should hear da cursin
The air is light and the colour is blue
To the top of my stairs bugger bugger bugger boo

Nib holder in hand and ink on the table
I be willin’ to write cuz I be feelin’ able
To get to the point that I’m willin’ to show
My calligraphy writtin’ learnin' how to do it slow

The last verse I’ll save for you to read
I bet your’re thinkin’ tiz only screed
But a challenge to write somethin’ just for fun
On a forum run by Erica thank you hon
