All For One se trata de un hit muy valorado en el mundo musical. Contiene un mensaje que merece ser interpretado. Contiene mucha poesia en su contenido, como veran adelante.

Decir que One For All fue uno de los discos mas originales de Brand NubianNo nos gusto el video de la rola. En cuando al corto musical, no estamos seguros de que sea el correcto.

Verse One: Gra nd Puba

I hit a beat a nd swi ng a n ote as i f my name was David Ruffi n
Quick t o t oast an MC just l ike an engli sh muffi n
Don't wo rry about a thi ng cause the Puba's never bluffi n
I gets headaches from the wack, so then I take a Bufferi n a nd I max
I wait until the oppo rtune time a nd then I tax
But should I max?
Now they say si nni ng i s fo r si nners so I guess I am n ot a si nner
Begi nni ngs i s fo r begi nners so I guess I am no begi nner
Thi s i s how I spark it, with money i n my pocket
When it comes t o havi ng pressure I gets hard as a rocket
MC Gra nd Pu, comi ng through all the residue
The songs remai n classics, dati ng back t o the Babalu
My boys I call em hot, the phones all of them jock
A nd I can thi nk of many epi sodes I swung i n Li ncoln Park
No I am n ot a phony a nd I got a tenderoni
Love the way she i s — n ot t oo fat, n ot t oo bony
Don't dri nk Sanka, won't si nk l ike a tanker
Knock the boots of a skirt i n Casablanca a nd I thank her
Some rappers sti nk, l ike Englebert Humperdi nk
Better yet Dick Caveat, I got a bad habit
Similar t o the girl, on She's Gotta Have It
I thi nk with the brai n a nd I whip behi nd the zipper
I am livi ng ki nda good similar t o Jack Tripper
A la ndlo rd named Roper did a show at the Copa
When I fi ni sh with thi s, I'll be paid l ike Oprah
So i f honey wants t o act fly
I'll just play l ike Guy a nd I am [sayi ng bye bye..]
[.. dumb bitch] Stick out your thumb a nd hitch
cause you've been cut off l ike a lightswitch
See I am programmed t o slam with the summer, spri ng, a nd fall
Befo re I do a show I get some kicks out the mall
Then I get my gear a nd I give Trev a call
Cause he wo rks i n the barbershop, right behi nd the mall
Other rappers tried t o rob me but you know they got did
To put it blunt, honey I smoked the kids
So hookers back off break No rth here comes the regulat o r
Cause you doesn't fi nd none greater

Verse Two: Derek X (now Sadat X)

On file i s a style that's why you caught a clip
My suitcases i s packed a nd I am goi ng on a trip t o Mic-a-delphia
I go fo r self a nd still be slammi ng
The school bell i s ri ngi ng a nd I caught somebody crammi ng
fo r the test, oh yes, my study guide was thick
I cut you with my verbal didn't hurt you just a nick
off your face don't play possum
watch me a nd I'll blossom l ike a rose
A nd get some new clothes a nd a fresh fade from Rob
Jump on the phone a nd dial the Now Rule Mob
Now come one, come all, we about t o get hectic
If my crew don't get i n, then the x makes an exit
t o the rear, I am outta here, don't front on my brothers
I take care of them befo re I take care of others
Now wood bats i s doomed i n the ni nties it's alumi num
Step t o the stage with a mic a nd I am doi ng him somethi ng awful
I am a citizen a nd I am lawful
I go t o hunt an other fall, rip the policemen's ball
I got the power t o make a car stall
I guess I am great, from blackness, a nd when the crowd slackens
I st op dri nki ng, a nd then I start thi nki ng
About days i n the past when Derek X was last
but now I am on the t op damn news travels fast
cuz I am l ike that! They can't see thi s
Read my book, it contai ns many pieces of verses
I t ook the time t o delete all the curses
So moms reach deep i n your purses
A nd buy me take me home a nd try me a nd do me well

Verse Three: Lo rd Jamar

Well, while I reign rhymes pour
You suck it up l ike a straw a nd jump on the dancefloo r
Cause every time I step i n a jam
I make l ike a doo r a nd slam
But then girls try t o turn my knob cause I am a hearthrob
I guess it's just a hazard that comes with the job
Cause everytime I rock a rhyme that shows Jamar i s i ntellectual
Girls want t o get sexual
Well I guess I have t o cope with bei ng so dope
You want t o be me, but can't see me with a telescope
You seek a nd search but still you can't fi nd
You're weak a nd it hurts t o be deaf dumb a nd bli nd
A supreme mi nd, will take you out of your paralysi s
I grip the mic so tight I get callouses
A nd your analysi s, i s that the Lo rd
Rips rhymes i nt o shape with a mic co rd
I do it good cause I am a postive black man
Eati ng up suckers as i f I was Pac Man
Not a Dapper Dan fan I stay casual
To rock l ike the J it comes gradual
You got t o know the ledge of wi se a nd dumb
A nd understa nd your culture of freedom
Power equally with the Gods
so you can build a nd fo rm your cipher
All your li fe you must teach true
Of the true a nd livi ng God, n ot a mystery spook
A nd when you do that, pursue that goal
which made the student enroll, a nd only then you'll prosper
