wtf is wrong with you tom? whether it was by accident or not, "word is born" has been around for almost 20 years, and everybody from public enemy to jay-z has said it. do you care about public enemy? tribe called quest? de la? i mean c'mon. you are making a really stupid argument this time. you said you'd never heard "word is born" used before in your life -- first of all, that's nonsense if you listen to hiphop at all, 2nd of all, we could easily give you thousands of examples of it being used, dissing and writing off Run DMC as if they're the only ones who used it is what's ignorant. i mean point taken about "word is bond" being the origin from which "..born" spring, but the rest of your argument is 100% ridiculous. sorry.
searching for "word is bond" brings up house of pain (ha), brand nubian, busta rhymes, wu tang, big pun, redman, ll cool j, jay-z, fat joe, public enemy, mc eiht, ice cube, gravediggaz, tupac, biggie, nas, OGC, digable planets, black rob, akinyele, ice-t, snoop dogg, tribe called quest, roots manuva, freddie foxx, talib qweli, goodie mob, outkast, lyrics born, gang starr, and many other garbage hiphop groups as well. http://www.blackapologetics.com/fivepercentfaq.html my best guess is lots of people who cant hear what people are rapping. tom
