What can I say that you don't already know
I stay dead fresh all the way to the floor
I ain't never ever been beaten before
You get a bullet hole in your soul ******' with Lo
I'm from Southwest whip a Jaguar S 1100
Crucifix on my chest
I could just stand still and shine like glass
I got a mansion sittin' on 10 acres of grass
I cannot stop
I will not quit
And ****** don't like it
Got to deal with it
Don't cross the line shawty let me be
I got 100 niggas a kill 'bout me
Yes y'all
Yes muthafuck the rest
If you lookin' for the ****** SugaBaby the best
You can talk all you want but betta not touch
You can't handle me
Ho, I'm just too much
Rock


and can anyone who is on MTV be considered a genius? guess my definition of genius differs from yours...

Would would you consider a genius? Let me guess - Johnny Cash?

you mean who would I consider?
no one in the music industry

Crazy is a nice song....it's on my running MP3 player. The rest of the album is pretty lousy though.

You don't have to be able to write good lyrics in order to be a vocal genius.

A vocal savant would be a more correct term

I disagree... Danger Mouse's beats are superb. To each their own though :beer:

Gnarls Barkley may be a Myspace darling right now, but I can't say I'm as overly impressed with this project as a lot of other people seem to be. It's not THAT special.

 

[BoomerD]

OK, so I'm "a l ittle " out of touch with today's music...I admit it...is this C Lo related to J Lo? :laugh:

 

[rocadelpunk]

there's some good tracks and there are obviously some fillers on the cd.

the side project is interesting and what is really important/significant about the album are the vocals/melodies...it's challenging most notions that any fan of hip-hop/rap has.


How many of these threads are we gonna have though..search people.
