The Return Of The Jungle Brothers The Native Tongues Reunion
Hercules Montero
Tensions over that album would lead the group to split with Warner Bros. They eventually landed with Gee Street Records for Raw Deluxe in 1997 that included a hit remix by U.K. production team Stereo MCs. While DJ Sammy B would part ways with the group as the remaining JBs recorded with Propellerheads producer Alex Giffford on 2000's more electronic-focused V.I.P. and the 2002 reunion with Todd Terry for the self-released All That We Do, the original trio would eventually return to the stage together a decade later.
Or some tongues who lied
And said "We'll be natives to the end"
Nowadays we don't even speak
I guess we got our own life to live
Or is it because we want our own kingdom to rule?
Every now and then I step to the now
For now I see back then I might have acted like a fool
It's the years that we own and we earned them
See the bridges we built now are burned down
Even though a few friends just returned them
Shit and shit there we affirm them
But the pattern has always been righteous
We know darkness
So we wipe dust
From our eyes, no surprise when the broom come
We do night like the honor, the moon, sun
People think we are linked to the solving
Of the problem that's revolvin'
Around music today but it's not true
We just do it our way cause we're not you
But we know you
We embrace you like brothers, bestow you
With an outro that's also an intro
For the east, and the west, and the central
Or some tongues who lied
And said \\\"We'll be natives to the end\\\"
Nowadays we don't even speak
I guess we got our own life to live
Or is it because we want our own kingdom to rule?
Every now and then I step to the now
For now I see back then I might have acted like a fool
It's the years that we own and we earned them
See the bridges we built now are burned down
Even though a few friends just returned them
Shit and shit there we affirm them
But the pattern has always been righteous
We know darkness
So we wipe dust
From our eyes, no surprise when the broom come
We do night like the honor, the moon, sun
People think we are linked to the solving
Of the problem that's revolvin'
Around music today but it's not true
We just do it our way cause we're not you
But we know you
We embrace you like brothers, bestow you
With an outro that's also an intro
For the east, and the west, and the central
The expenses include the services of about a dozen people such as an immigration lawyer, an anthropologist, a merchant to help deliver supplies needed during the trek into the jungle, as well as native guides, fuel and a boat up the Orinoco River.
