ACAPELLA VOCAL
We Go On And On (Pella) (11)

In the 1950′s, She was one half of the chart-topping group, Mickey & Sylvia. Then in her solo career as Sylvia, she shared mood altering performances like the one pictured above. As the 1970′s drew to a close, she became known as a pioneering music industry executive and independent record label owner. She’s referred to as the mother of hip hop. This is because Ms. Sylvia Robinson gave birth to mainstream hip hop. Ms. Robinson, along with her husband Joe Robinson and their son, was responsible for pushing rap music and hip hop culture into the mainstream through their record label, Sugar Hill Records. She revealed rap music to the masses when “Rapper’s Delight” was performed by her artists, The Sugarhill Gang, reached #4 on the R&B music charts. Later she signed Grandmaster Flash whose 1982 street reality themed single, “The Message”, was coincidentally the first hip hop song that I ever learned as a tot. Sylvia, we’re sending prayers to your family and wishing you well on your homegoing. Thank you for your huge contributions to the music world as the mother of hip hop.

Between good and evil
The line existing’s not that thin
Even if it seems invisible
Good intentions pave the way
Hell on earth can be man-made
And hotter than an everglade
Golden rule applies
And capitalizes with interest

When they su su pon you
When they’re spittin in your face
When the odds come up against you
At every hour of the day
Believe in yourself
And never ever ever ever give up
Or give in
God knows whats true
And lives inside of you

All the broken people
Should have a chance to try again
Even if it seems impossible
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Hope is like the ocean sand
Slippin’ from your hands in the rain
Beauty’s in your eye
And I and I will protect you from them

when they su su pon you
when they’re spittin in your face
when the odds come up against you
at every hour of the day

Believe in yourself
And never ever ever give up or give in

I and I will see you through
When your vision is filled with tears
When you’re working for your due
And you just cant seem to get no where
Close your eyes and meditate
Make life your song

When they su su pon you
When they’re spittin in your face
When the odds come up against you
At every hour of the day

Believe in yourself
And never ever ever ever give up
Or give in

God knows what’s true
And lives inside of you

All the broken people
Should have a chance to try again
Even if it seems impossible
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Hope is like the ocean sand
Slippin’ from your hands in the rain
Beauty’s in your eye
And I and I will protect you from them

When they su su pon you
When they’re spittin in your face
When the odds come up against you
At every hour of the day

Believe in yourself
And never ever ever ever give up
Or give in
God knows what’s true
And lives inside of you
