If your Life was a Line from an Old School Hip Hop Song...

[Angie]

GTO, I've been waiting for this thread since I joined CF in 2009


THIS IS MY TIME! THIS IS MY MOMENT!



Hip-hop hasn't been the same since the 90s.

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy - there's vomit on his sweater already, Mom's spaghetti. Lose yourself, man.

Busta has some amazing flow. He's actually come back pretty strong in the last couple of years. That tongue twisting stuff that he did on Chris Brown's "Look At Me Now" was amazing.

Do you feel it in your body? Shake your stinkin ***
Do you wanna get naughty? Shake your stinkin ***
Do you wanna rock a party? Shake your stinkin ***
Do you wanna drink a forty? Shake your stinkin ***


Song and Artist?

Spaghetti was a bad choice

Does a Pita Pit bathroom count as a BK bathroom?

My favorite line that from song is "there ain't no movie and no Mekhi Phifer."

 

[cyhiphopp]

We jazz like dat

We out, we out

Q-Tip is one of the all time best in my mind.

Doesn't roll of the tongue like burger king. Probably a little cleaner well kept than a BK. But by all means, as a hawk would say, if the opportunity knocks go for it wherever.

 

[cyhiphopp]

I guess
You ain't heard that we swallow guys
It's too damn late to apologize
When you see the mantle or will you see the skies


It's almost over now
It's almost over now

I was listening to Snoop Dogg's "Drop it like it's hot" and forgot that Pharrell Williams was on there. Definitely not that same Pharrell that people know today. :swoon:

 

[carvers4math]

My favorite line that from song is "there ain't no movie and no Mekhi Phifer."

Kids roll their eyes at me when I tell them this opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo.

My favorite line that from song is "there ain't no movie and no Mekhi Phifer."

He can be a super-turd, but Eminem has some great lyrics. He also makes good use of assonance and alliteration, which is actually fairly complex linguistically - I respect it as a former English major.

pants, it is "Lose Yourself." I almost quoted "Sing for the Moment," but I just don't think it's as good of a song.

Digable Planets - Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)?

Pharrell also was with Snoop on "Beautiful," which is a song I really enjoy for some reason. Maybe the "Clueless" reference? Not sure.

For the ladies:

Um, you're packed and you're stacked, especially in the back.
I wanna thank your mother for a butt like that.
Can I get some fries with that shake shake booty,
If looks could kill, you would be an Uzi.

--I always loved that this song turned misogyny around and made men pieces of meat.

Kstates song is word up. I figure they must have an old instructor if they are pulling songs from the 80s
