He wasn't cursing. It was just a video version. At that time videos were still on TV and certain things were edited in addition to curses such as n-word, and references to guns and drugs. Check out the unedited, I'm sure it's no big deal

Rakim cursed in his very first single, Check Out My Melody. That he never curses is a myth. He just did it very rarely.

@@CliffMarion "Pull out your money, pull out your cut/Pull up a chair - cuz I'm a tear shit up." "I wouldn't have came to say my name and run same weak shit/Putting blurs and slurs and words that just don't fit." It was uncut when it first came out. In the radio version (and the one everyone plays) "Pull up a chair" ends the line with chair echoing and in the other line "shit" was cut down to "sh" with another heavy echo. Yes, I'm old and remember that.

He wasn’t cursing. The video is edited for the sake of monetization. The words that were bleed out were the N-word and a reference to a gun.

Dropped a few N-Bombs and it was also silent when he said .45 holders. Gun references and drug talk would get edited out to get the video played on MTV and BET. Master P was not a good rapper, but he did spit real shit. He felt authentic, as did the whole No Limit roster. P wasn’t a great lyricist, but he has great charisma, and he had plenty of good-great talent following his orders.

Glad I kept watching to the end. You almost got comment section dealt with. 😂✌🏾 Rakim always had a song here and there with a curse in it. The thing is he never has to lean on curses to fill a verse. In this song he cursed once and I bet most people wouldn’t even catch it. The rest of the edits were for the n word. Ra is still the God MC today. ✌🏾

Rakim used language that radio censored from his first single “Eric B Is President”. He rarely did that but over the years he even dropped the “f” word a couple times before going solo. Cursing isn’t just for when you have nothing to say. Sometimes it provides emphasis to a statement which we all do. And yeah, bring the crew back. Ya'll do excellent work. Peace

That's one of many rhymes that he wrote. His use of curse words pales in comparison to the amount of profanity that is used today. He still has something to say.

Not everybody got to give up a 💰 for a baddie. Most dudes lack game and patience. And to dude with the jacket, Rakim is saying Nigga like we all do. A if you're sensitive you can take it as a curse word, but your being a distraction from the Bars. Don't place judgement on the one that cemented in the Game. Anything said now for a man that made His bones early and well respected, it's hate. Facts make a argument valid, Fiction and lies àre Hate and Animosity.
