DK West Encounter 3

**DK West Encounter 3** is the battle theme of the second optional fight against DK West and the last of his battle themes, the others being DK West Encounter 1 and DK West Encounter 2. Like the required Encounter 1 and the optional Encounter 2, the songs use elements from Rap and Dikir Barat. Unlike the others, the famous chorus sung by the crowd is replaced by Mayday's turn or Zuke's at the second half of the song.

All DK West Encounters are the only ones to not have any variation, just having a French version of the three of them. The DK West Encounters 3 is the only song in all the game where three principal characters sing, these being DK West, Zuke and now Mayday, where instead of attacking DK West with words in turns like a real rap battle, she tries to reconcile both brothers.

## Lyrics

### English

```
DK West:
 Hey Hey Hey
 Hey MayDay how YOU doing today?
 Haha
 If you want the real deal
 Don't pick someone who steals
 You wanna pick a winner instead
 Trust me I'm the original exceptional
 Ini ORI not like Zuke he's just COPYing my moves
 If you like those moves, pick the OG grooves
 DK West is your man, others they just stan.

Mayday:
 Hey West, you know Zuke still looks up to you

Zuke:
 Hey don't tell him that

Mayday:
 You're his brother, not from another mother
 And you're not a bother, you're the real deal
 You got such a big following
 and this power is building
 It's a threat to the political system of Vinyl City
 This is important, your role is true
 Rise up to the occasion and be a real inspiration

DK West:
 Yes, I've done some things
 but Im not really convinced that Zuke
 really respects what I do
 Zuke's probably out to get me
 to diss me, to mock me, to cut me
 Zuke can't stand watching me succeed
 He wants all the spotlight on him
 oh poor Zuke

Mayday:
 That's silly West
 You know Zuke is following your footsteps
 Every move, every groove, you've been inspiring Zuke
 Our rebellion?
 Zuke's been emulating your success
 We're trying to bring back rock to the city
 and fight the EDM empire

DK West:
 Zuke's been doing great things
 I can see it myself
 but you can't undo a history
 of his mean vibes to me
 I've been disappointed
 down and out
 My own brother out to get me
 Zuke's been forever not liking me
 So how can I forgive
 how can I move on
 You've probably never changed anyhow anyway

Mayday:
 West you gotta know
 Zuke was only doing his thing
 He wasn't doing anything like scheming
 So don't think badly or let your mind go madly
 In the wrong direction, with too much introspection
 Instead reframe your mind, open up your thoughts
 Widen up your heart, you gotta know your brother
 Looks up to you, he only wants the best
 To learn from the best, the real deal
 The role model, the one and only rhyme master
 The often imitated, never replicated DK West

DK West:
 Aw naw now now now
 Just wait, are you making this up, you just creating
 Stories that tell of my real glory
 You're making me wonder
 Are you telling the truth?
 Well I wanna talk with Zuke
 I wanna ask him things
 I'm not really convinced
 Whether that's really how your heart sings
 or are you playing me little brother
 You're taunting me oh jangan ketawa
 But I have the feeling you got things hidden
 Ulterior motives, got my mind buzzing

Zuke:
 I gotta admit pride got a hold on me
 When I outdid you West
 College was when I was best
 But you gotta know any human would feel the same
 And like Mayday said, I still look up to you bro
 You build your career from scratch
 and made it higher and higher
 until NSR had to step in
 and kill that blazing fire
 They knew you were dangerous
 High risk, high energy, highly influential
 DK West, simply the best, from the bottom to the top
 of the game!

DK West:
 I created the ruckus
 A wole crazy ride
 That really built up my pride
 I never wanted to influence the politics of the city
 I just wanted to make music/ rhymes grooves yeah hit it
 and so I left it all behind Vinyl City bye bye adios selamat tinggal
 But yeah Zuke I see you
 You've progressed from the blur
 from the clueless of the clueless
 To a leader, to a man, to the leader of the rebellion
 and let me say ewah brother that makes me proud inside
 DK West, your brother

Zuke:
 West, what you did for the city
 Even if unitentional
 hit all the main points
 We really hit national
 Was awesome fully truesome
 and despite the powers that be
 NSR's monopoly,
 the crazy grip on the city
 was shaken to the core
 The great DK West managed to shake it
 The political system we need to break it
 This is what I'm trying to do now

DK West:
 Zuke congrats you the man,
 you can stir up the city,
 Just like I did before,
 There's no reason why it can't be done more,
 If something's to be done, it can be done done done done done,
 But you know Zuke,
 You told me right in my face
 You put me in my place
 You said I wasn't a brother
 and that truely bothered me
 Ewah I am not your bro?
 Ewah really Zuke bro?

Zuke:
 I was dumb
 I was stupid
 I was foolish
 I was blinded
 I'm sorry for saying something so dumb stupid foolish
 I didn't mean, to be mean, I mean you know what I mean
 And despite all our bickering, our fighting, our disagreeing
 DK West you will always be (ewah) my brother my family my man
 DK West you will always be my brother my family my man (ewah)

```

## Trivia

* At first DK West starts off singing slowly, pretending he's being nice to Mayday or even having no words in front of a girl, before suddenly starting to sing quickly, attacking the unaware duo and player.
* Like in DK West Encounter 1 and DK West Encounter 2, the battle follows the music, that's why there are several parts where the lyrics coincide with something shown in scene.
	+ When DK West sings "If you like those moves, pick the OG grooves", the letters O and G appear when saying "OG".
	+ A big heart is formed when DK West sings "Whether that's really how heart sings", specifically in the word "heart".
	+ The symbols B, 2 and J appear when DK West tells Zuke how he has progressed from the blur "to a leader, to a man, to the leader of the rebellion".
* DK West's last turn will be much easier, even showing multiple lives on Zuke's side, representing their reconciliation.
* All DK West encounters were recorded in the same day.
