Okay, so I listen to quite a bit of hip hop, but lately I haven't really been keeping up with mainstream (c)rap, and when I was at they gym yesterday I hear this song come on...

At first I was like "no way are they playing that numa numa song" then I realized it was TI... but yeah, I guess that was the last place I ever expected a rapper to sample a beat. Maybe he's trying to broaden his appeal from gangsters to internet geeks?

Well, when you consider that just about every rap song is sampled from somewhere else they eventually run out of material and have to start looking elsewhere.

Most annoying song ever

And it's funny how TI tries to rap about morals. Shouldn't he be in FPMITAP for trying to buy automatic weapons?

I can't say that I mind TI. I listened to a radio interview he did in regards to the time he's going to be spending in prison for the weapon possession charge and he was incredibly well spoken, I was impressed. Oh, and Rhianna is hot, it's a damn shame she can't dance to save her life.

I was wondering what happened to him with that weapons possession thing... I heard he got caught a while ago, but since he keeps pumping out albums I kinda figured he got away with it. Yay legal system for punishing a celebrity.

And I used to run track with a chick that looked like rihanna, except she could dance.

Jamaican girls ftw.

I almost posted something like this a few weeks ago.

The numa numa sample made me want to vomit.

"Dragostea din Tei" is an actual Romanian song, and doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the Numa Numa video. Maybe TI is just into Europop.

I guess Texas Instruments is making commercials with the song or something...
