Bazzel
The phone rings, they notify us of a concert
we get ready to leave you all speechless
rehearsal in a small room without air conditioning
until all the choruses are perfected
we aim to fill patios, burst eardrums
to move you from side to side to the sound of our lips
a day before the show there are things to improve
to surprise an audience that always ends up amazed
nerves start when we arrive at the venue
a line where there's always the typical rapper-druggie
with their looks they try to humiliate us,
and at the end of each gig they always end up greeting us
we enter with our heads held high
where there's always some mentally challenged person who jumps at us
shitty posh people, but everyone else supports us
because they know that these 3 beat most
sound checks begin to make it perfect
indeed, chus, porta, bazzel leave your penis straight
don't forget dj datz with his turntables on the table
to shut up the idiot who always talks
the atmosphere heats up and they shout for us to start
we warm up, we rock it and no one puts the brakes on us
the audience chants, they start raising their arms
and everyone like crazy asks for those hits
Chorus

Porta
at first you perform for free, the fee is far away
you lose money on trips for being a nobody without a CD
but direct after direct the 4 of us gain experience
from having 20 people in the audience to filling venues
groupies scream like crazy, b-boys raise their arms
many others furious while I sing and one ties bows
I went from being an opening act to being the main artist
so that they swallow other emcees they leave us for the end
respect is earned little by little
at first we couldn't even rhyme and we struggled with the choruses
it's something that happens to all of us, just another concern
finish a song and not know what the next one is
at first your gaze won't be fixed on the audience
from being static to hyperactive and feeling unique
we still go nervous on stage
the first time you hear people singing your songs you freak out
whether you like it or not, sometimes you have to perform without a DJ
the needle skips and you have to hit play again
backstage we're all buddies, rap is lived
making a mistake is discouraging until the audience follows you
it's 3 mics, 2 turntables, 1 stage
knowing how to cover up in case something goes wrong is necessary
collaborations always make necks crack
an unreleased acapella is the best part of a gig for them
create your style, your gig, your choruses, a show different from all the others
we hit so hard that we make your face change
I can do a quick one without rest
they ask for another song after the gig and of course I nail it

Chorus x 2
Chus
the end arrives and something runs through your whole body
the nerves at the beginning are just a mere memory
everything, is something, more, than a unique feeling
the audience transmits it to you and it's all I need
everything goes well if it ends well or so they say
carpe diem, enjoy what I offer you
even if you think if you don't know what a concert is
if you haven't seen me with porta and bazzel live
we rock it with dj datz always on the turntables
we leave any artist in the background
we are the fucking masters that's clear of course
although behind all this there's illusion and a lot of effort
even if you have experience, each gig is different
you experience many new things and meet many people
we perform almost always after a good dinner
although seeing the faces of the people that's what fills me the most
everything ends eventually we get off the stage
go to the back stage to rest for a while
but wait!! it's not over yet
we still have to chat with the people who supported us
people love to say: man you killed it
after the comment unintentionally I always smile
because I love knowing that the people down there
not only listen but also value your work
then they ask for photos, an autograph and your age
accompanied as always by: come to my city
the truth is that doing live shows is something I'm passionate about
and remember my name CHUS!!! I come from Barcelona
