Napoleon Da Legend - The King Walk

Copied!

{Napoleon Da Legend verse}
They be talking but the math ain’t adding up
While they was crying bout shit we was manning up
Going to ya city bagging up venues packed to maximum
We laughing cause they cats ain’t matching up
Po and Rhettmatic, speak that mathematics you feel
The team stacked
They giving us automatic appeal
I’m back in the field, fuck around and triple the price
Shit was light to me these dudes think it’s a fight
I see em sampling but they not flipping it right
We Nip it the bud catch a lick and dip in the cut
And while they was playing themselves
Always stuck to my guns
Check the stats
We been running up thе numbers for months
Running from nothing though
Bring it we got something for all that
Closing out dеals
While we stuck on the tarmac
Cigar lounge cognac toasting it up
Free game if you was smart you’d be soaking it up

{Napoleon Da Legend Chorus}
Shit regular we on it all day
If you ain’t fucking with it just get out my way
Everybody ain’t built for the same thing
We ain’t here to play games we walk in like kings
Shit regular we on it all day
If you ain’t fucking with it just get out my way
Everybody ain’t built for the same thing
We ain’t here to play games we walk in like kings

{Napoleon Da Legend verse 2}
Killing it who the king keeping it gully
Scheming on getting a scully, these streets is cruddy
Ain’t afraid to get my feet muddy these freaks love me
I freak it lovely
I don’t believe in getting lucky
I make my own luck and I give no fucks
I think with my gut the real heads is bigging it up
It’s shameful for y’all
To even try to work against
A perennial all-star while you work the bench
I make ends meets while you niggas meet your end
They lied to you you should have never believed your friends
Gassed up now you got clapped up fuck rap
Rap what? Before you knew it your career wrapped up
Shit is up we get it lit yea that’s what’s up
We learned tp survive in this game like the "Last of Us"
The Beat Junkies Rhettmatic came through in the clutch
You know how I do Po got mad jewels in the tuck

{Napoleon Da Legend Chorus}
Shit regular we on it all day
If you ain’t fucking with it just get out my way
Everybody ain’t built for the same thing
We ain’t here to play games we walk in like kings
Shit regular we on it all day
If you ain’t fucking with it just get out my way
Everybody ain’t built for the same thing
We ain’t here to play games we walk in like kings

Biography

edit bio

Bilingual, Hip-Hop/Afrobeat artist, Napoleon Da Legend transferred his skills on the basketball court to the wax. Before that, he had to teach himself English. He kept his ears glued to the radio.

Paris-born, to the Comoros Islands, then Washington DC raised, the son of an immigrant family, Napoleon is a Brooklyn-based artist who uses his voice as weapon of hope, social-critique, conquest, and joy. After an untimely split, his parents left the U.S. and went their separate ways leaving the 16 year old to fend for himself in the DC / Maryland area, which helped him develop his hustle, instinct and work-ethic. NDL’s song “Black Privilege” led him to be featured at the Essence Festival in 2017. He was then invited to perform live on FOX 5’s Good Day DC.

NDL’s message of empowerment, community, and self-determination through music doesn’t stop there. He also works regularly with youth, running hip-hop workshops in Brooklyn’s toughest schools and Rikers Island’s juvenile programs.

Following the release of his “Steal This Mixtape” series in 2016, Napoleon headlined his “Steal This Mixtape” European Tour. He’s been featured on Statik Selekta’s Show Off Radio Show and Sway Calloway’s Sway in the Morning. To top all this, he graced the stage at the final Rocksteady Crew’s 40th Anniversary show at SummerStage in Central Park. In 2019, NDL performed in Europe’s biggest Hip-Hop Festival Hip-Hop Kemp in Czech Republic as Supa Kaiju with rapper/producer Sicknature.

2018 was yet another prolific year, without a doubt. Napoleon released 10 projects- including four albums, four mixtapes, and two EP’s released through various indie labels (Chopped Herring, Media Pop, Copenhagen Crates and Tuff Gong Records). This was followed by eight appearances in 2019 at Harlem Week’s main stage. He then became recognized for his fusing the world’s of Hip-Hop and Anime with albums Dragon Ball G (Dragon Ball Z), Bronze Saints (Saint Seiya) and King of the North Star (Fist of the North Star) in a feature article on Bandcamp (How Napoleon Da Legend Made Anime-Inspired Rap an Artform).

Since then, NDL has released 12 more projects, including the afrobeat/hip-hop fusion projects, “Afrostreet” & “Afrostreet 2”. After creating a few anthems (“Poulet Maafe”), which became popular with his French speaking audience, NDL decided to put his French powers into high gear. In September, 2019, he gave his first in interview in French with Mediapac (Watch it here), garnering over 100,000 views in less than a week. In May 2020, NDL featured on elite French rapper Akhenaton’s (IAM) “Asteroïde” project, trading verses in French and English on the innovative song “Storytellers”. In 2021, NDL was invited to adapt Akhenaton’s 19 minute song “La Faim de leur Monde” in English. They later collaborated on a 3-part EP series called “The Whole in my Heart” produced by Akhenaton on his label La Cosca.
