Artist Discography

Estelle:
UK UK

Tempa:
Yo see us gal now about to show you about rappin you get me boy?
Skitz rude boy lets draw this trowls you get me
Why whose gonna taking it ?
Wildflower, Estelle and Tempa, boy


Wildflower:
I'm 2 tonnes of fun weighted out in feathers
It's heavy, whichever way you look like clucking
You wouldna think I had it shook
But if I'm not mistaken it's lookin shaken
But not is the phrase if any
Just give me the money penny and I'm out of here
To sandy shores
Where I can safely assume that I'll be vibing out
With the centres of my roots way up in the hills
Coz London kills urge man to kill my ills
Take me back to pleasures in life oh so simplistic
Floating on a natural mystic, hardly cryptic
Message is clear, got to move on out of here
Some time to find the sunshine, 
Before I fly this metropolis
I keep dropping this, I leave it scorched, like Olympic torch
From London to Sydney are my live ladies with me?
Then let me here you say "viva la radio" when you hear it play
With much less lolly in our pop, still we don't stop
Coz we find resource turn water into wine every time

CHORUS: Get scorched blazing chance of glory, name of the story
All my live ladies for me, as we blaze chance of glory

Tempa:
Skitz, we're blowing up now, you get me British ting

Yo I represent women that's living in Britain on council estates
Raising their children, probably on the social trying to survive
But working a 9 to 5, coz life's far from easy
Probably why my attitude's live and I'm so cheeky
from Buckingham palace to Nottingham castle my gal is speechless
When I'm rapping and tellin 'em yo keep it secret
You get me your body's your temple man'll try and deceive ya
And try a ting coz every man's nature
But nothing's greater than an independent girl raising the paper
Got it locked living life got it tight and we flex proper
There's nothing to stop ya, when you put your mind to the matter
Certain girls think you too dumb and try and fluff it in life
We're trying to survive and we're queens
And we're dapper, whether it's rapping or working on the checkouts at Asda
As long as you respect your soul then everything's criss
And you'll be soul before you do a man instead of getting dissed
In a society where there's no love and you're on your own strugglin with kids
I know it's 'ard but you gotta stay positive
In reality the world's crazy with a slight twist
Me yeah I'm Tempa and I flip on a beat like Skitz

CHORUS: Life's cold on our society the pressure in life
The world's twisted and all we tryina do is survive
Stay wise focus your mind and respect your self
Because we're intelligent women that are in control

Estelle:
Now it's that model hot verbalist who murder this
Pick you off with lyrics that be too hot superfluous
It's ladies first in this
What you saying you ain't heard about we?
See you ain't heard about me knuckleheads now I'm ready to smasht up the seed
Cats ain't ready for this yeah my girl drawn fits ?? 
We had it issh like veterans
And still spit
In an industry full up of dicks
Who skate for fiending for chicks
With nitro flows, still bury your nose, bros
Running up there guns yeah like honey you know
"what else you rhymin I've got a studio, yo
Do you sing, yeah you gotta nice voice
Call me tho"
What bullshit that comes next is some
"I wanna be Jay Z
You can be Foxy B
And we can run things for real"
But I don't need spee
I'm just me o me
I'm holding UK to the top it's still we o we
We'll hold this up still rock mikes in jeans and dresses
Flowers in my tresses head wraps, whatever's bestest
Estelle the freshest in a long line of MCs
Holding worldwide song tight since 1983
It's like "watch out now" we rock this mike fully-clothed in this
Big batty birds they shake it like Jenny Lopez, style the bonuses
We don't shimmy, we spit the words on the track
And if you like gimme gimme
