Thats my ringer on my phone, for my hubby!

I'm not so much against it, but can somebody tell me what happened to independent woman and "if you pimp him, I congratulate you"? I'm not hatin' I just want to know where it went.

Then again, Beyonce was alone and lonely back then, wasn't she?

As a Native Houstonian (who still lives here in Houston

), this kind of rap is only one reflection of the lifestyle of 10% of the black people that live in the South. It is a sterotype (characature (sp??)). Hence, the requirements of a Dirty South rapper (i.e., Houston, Atlanta, and New Orleans):

Gold teeth
A Pimp Cup (with an Energy Drink named after)
A "Twang" accent
Some "doves" on an Escalade w/ Candy paint
A third grade vocabulary
Screwed up and sippin on syzurp

The whole point is that I am not tired of Dirty South rap--I'm tired of the lack of imagination or eclectic taste. A true reflection of the South is what we need in Hip-Hop and for these reasons to listen to artists more substance such as:

The Roots
Common
Nas
Mos-Def
Talib Kweli
OutKast (who are not the stereotypical "Dirty South" rappers)
and many, many more...

I like the concept of the song--but hate the lyrics. My boyfriend's ringer is "The Light" by Common.

i can understand a personal prefernce for a certain genre. however, when i read your original post, i got that you were implying that dirty south music should be over and that it shouldn't be played on radio and video stations. i didn't get the whole lack of imagination thing.

but, i wouldn't call the artist you name as a true reflection of the south because, as someone who is from the south, you know that there are a lot of "subcultures" down here that any one person could subscribe to. the same person who goes to paesanos on sunday to hear poetry could have gone to the red cat the night before to hear jazz or clarks to hear soul music and could be the same person at the m bar on thursday and dreams on friday to listen to rap and hip hop (as a houstonian, i'm sure you can appreciate my example).

How could I forget how much I loathe this song?!?!? Any song that has a grown woman practicing spelling "bananas" is garbage to me. How did this even make it to air? She actually has a decent voice, so why is she trying to sound like she's 10 years old? Please grow up and make some real music.

I can't believe this gets played on radio stations.

Love it and got it on my ring tone when it first came out. It's such a fun song minus all the "Shit's" in the lyrics (radio edit)

NinjaPoodle · #8 07-25-2005, 01:09 PM

Anything by Mary J. Blige, R. "Child Molester" Kelly, and Teena Marie. They sound like nails to the chalkboard. Awful.

I don't know if anyone has heard this song but a few weeks ago the radio station here was playing Master P's new song called " I Need Rims (like on the car) and it had Romeo in it. It was to the beat of "I Need Love" (which is a classic). It was very bad!!! Why would LL clear that and let them two mess up his song like that?

Dvyne Evolushun · #11 07-25-2005, 07:05 PM

Anything by R Kelly.

cosign!

this isn't me, but my grandaddy can't stand Stevie Wonder. I'm like, but you don't like any of the songs? Him: "They all sound exactly the same, and I didn't like the first one."

Usher's Yeah needs to die....it has been killed, run over, and then backed up and run over again. Also, what is up with R Kelly's newest In The Closet or something to that effect. I feel that song is just rediculous. As someone has mentioned earlier, HollaBack Girl makes me change the station almost instantly...

Mike Jones "Back then they didn't want, now I'm hot and they all on me"- I can't stand it, even though he's prob speaking the truth.
