From Los Angeles, CA. to Knoxville, TN. It's all about semantics.

-----------

UK Journalist: Tairrie B began as a rapper in the early 1990’s. She used to work with Eazy E but she drifted towards metal.

Ben Westhoff: She was actually the first white woman ever signed to a major rap deal.

UK Journalist: But she’s been the poster girl for female villainy for decades.

Mr John Waters: She was the first white girl rapper I remember and I love Tairrie B

Now every little sucker that I see wanna be the hardest
But I'm an artist and I know where my heart is
OG, true to this so I manifest
Like a medium while you a comedienne
So funny I forgot to laugh
Damn honey, go shake that ass
Something must be wrong when your songs are so tasteless
And the way that you act is so brainless
So I’mma talk trash while you try to be famous
Flash your tits and ass so shameless
I don’t know you on a first-name basis
And I don't give a fuck what your name is
I don't trip, I spit so keep checkin' this
A lotta chicks tried but they still ain’t wrecked this
Wicked Witch from the West Coast cold chillin’
Conjure Wife, down South...Knoxvillain

The return of the rough
Knox …Villain (villain)
L.A. Woman
The return of the rough
Knox…Villain (villain)
L.A. Woman
Knoxville Girl
We recognize her first and foremost as a villain

Coming correct with respect as I flex my new hex
Not an object of sex
Complex lyrical styles in my duality
Conflicts when I hit ya with a dose of reality
My feminality invoking my vocality
With a brutal musical mentality
Stoke the fire to inspire originality
No need for me to rely on sexuality
The villainess will be killin’ this thoroughly
Delivering pearls of wisdom verbally
You never heard of me? Do me the courtesy
Check the resume next time you refer to me
I’m sure to be the first chick on this path
Rap to rock, back to rap bitch, do the math
While I chill in the West Hills of Knoxville
Show em how the West Coast rocks still

The return of the rough
Knox …Villain (villain)
L.A. Woman
The return of the rough
Knox…Villain (villain)
L.A. Woman
Knoxville Girl
We recognize her first and foremost as a villain

Infamous up in this you know who to quote
Murderous on the mic and that’s all she wrote
Gloat, throw up the goat, when I smote
Vernacular to make an amateur choke
Cutthroat and you can trust my tongue will never rust
So when they clear the smoke, ain't nothing left but dust
Bustin’ myths and coming back with a bombtrack
Checkin’ my lips in my compact
No contract or contact with the industry
Continue to write my own history
Skillfully, abusing my muses like a motherfucker
Linguistic villainy that’ll cut ya
Up sucka…just like the Black Dahlia
Because today is tomorrow’s nostalgia
And I’m holding it down like the Grande dame
Nevermind my age, remember my name

John Waters: She had something to say didn’t she? I have nostalgia for Miss Tairrie B
