I'm a G-A-N-G-STIRRR
take it to the streets, say when he's scurrrred
T- streets slimmin see ya makin Z scurrr
feet feet gone lace the weed with the syrrp
Weezy, Don of the squad, N**** bow down
excuse yourself from the table, we 'bout to chow down
We bust up in this bitch with our smiles down
oh how wow glock glock fo fo pow pow
we've got a lion in the engine with a loud growl
little kids and pets run from the ROW ROW
say ROW we 'bout to bring it back to our town
man, shit bout to go down, down, super got that brown now
and little snacky's got the pounds now
loaded, we've got money from the flo' to the ceilin
homey talkin slick, we've got money on the flow
we bout to kill em with money i'mma throw it i'm bout to win it
weezy out
fee i got us papi, u could sit back and put ya feet up
i'ma make sure we all eat my nigga feed up
and u could catch me g'd up
at the stage at the club tosssin g's up
or at the table wrappin' keys up
they tell me i could make it rappin put them keys up
but i'm like 25 keys up
the streets is tuff,
man i gotta get these peeps they stuff, it's a hot summer
u could still catch me and stunna in a 4 door lexus
it's only weezy baby no more extras
and u know he bout to buy me a 4 door testa
just cuz he's impressed wit my solo effort
i show no care for, those who left us
fuck those fellas i'm so rebellious
i show no remorse
when u see me hold ya thought's or we gon' hold court
and i know u don't wanna hold court
i bust up in this bitch wit a k and bang out the whole court

nah but for real his verse on the "hustle hard" remix is awesome

busta verses in 2011 are just sad to me

and you haven't even heard his verse on the cher lloyd album about being forever young

this is a recent busta rhymes verse that i really enjoy

voted for racks

is "chopper in the car" called something different than "chopper in the car"??

ok i guess it's "john" and it's my pick.

and "marvin's room" is the song about drunk-dialing your ex - people like this song as more than a novelty for real?

(i spend 95% of my time in the car listening to urban rap radio so i am familiar with these songs in some capacity but they never say the titles /also didn't realize drake was on 75% of them.)

"Marvin's Room" love is the weirdest of all to me, because even if you don't like Drake as a person, even if you don't like Drake as a rapper, at least he's made some pop songs qua pop songs & "Marvin's Room" is a meandering, directionless sexless slow jam

i mean it is kind of a hilarious song because it's all serious and dark but it's about drunk dialing someone and telling them you are sleeping with a bunch of other women!

I'VE HAD SEX FOUR TIMES THIS WEEK I'LL EXPLAIN
HAVING A HARD TIME ADJUST TO FAME

dang racks is p great

marvins room is my fav drake song

in spite of the awkward lines his performance is def moving--not in that it inspires sympathy or pity but, like, i can relate to being in that pathetic position and it really hits that nerve. captures the vibe of being bummed out & reaching out perfectly; the beat sounds like the bathroom of a club, the way the keys seep through and the volume increases in hesitant bursts. the phone call is pretty devastating

i mean presumably he's calling someone he's, like, in love with; kind of serious imo

some dude feel like it's my duty to inform you that your dn is biting the rev

ok my bad but i should do you a favor and post under the dn to which you're referring in this actual thread before i change it so people aren't totally confused

"sounds like the bathroom of a club" is the new "watching a party ending through smoke"

haha well I just posted in the thread most likely to get your attention xp

ha, thank you some dude, i was confused myself.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

racks because of the dance

1) racks
2) grove st party
3) imma boss
4) bring it back
5) roll up (such a cute song)
6) marvin's room

what abt 'lotus flower bomb' ?

i <3 "roll up"

the chorus of "roll up" is like the most rhythmically incompetent vocal performance of 2011

yeah i could see that -- idk i love the production on that

the chorus of "roll up" is like the most rhythmically incompetent vocal performance of 2011

I'm sorry, I thought you had heard the Childish Gambino album

haha i meant to add some kind of 'radio hit' qualifier in there (but no i have not listened to Camp)

this song is terrible!

i feel so sorry for people who live nowhere near DC that they have to hear Wale on the radio all the time now too

like it's been our cross to bear for much longer but it's not my desire to spread the misery

jesus christ how many of these songs are gigantic blousey sapfests

and slooooooooooooooooooooooooow too

now I am better understanding how/why ppl would be appreciating Waka

rolling gigantic blousey sapfests 2012

yup i think we got our thread title goons

I mean, I'm going through in order and I am actually psyched/happy about hitting Lupe because at least it isn't a turgid dirge, to the point where I am tempted to give his album a chance despite the massive negative reaction I had to "The Show Goes On"

someone should put some Paxil in Weezy's weed

haha that means the biggest blousy sapfest of all, "Marvins Room," is up next

gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawd why won't he shut the fuck up

I don't care if this make me old, Drake is fucking terrible and should just be punched 24/7

the Lupe Fiasco + Trey Songz joint is kind of a jam

yeah i fuck w/ that song

kind of telling that a wholly anonymous generic track like "Racks" is coming across like the greatest thing in the universe thanks to exposure to stupid ass Drake

okay "Bring It Back" is a genuinely YES song, the first I've hit on this list (of the ones I didn't already know) in a while

^^^^^^^^i know right!

(ha this was an xp but it applies to both)

racks is a pretty unusual song, maybe not as unusual as tony montana but they're both ugly and rythmically contorted in a way most or all futuristic stupid fruity swag ever is

tpp's list otm

the big takeaway I'm having so far is that I didn't think that 90% of hip-hop would spend 2011 trying to unsuccessfully merge "I Need Love" with "Ms Jackson"

haha

well considering that that style's been done to death for 3 years in a row there's not really anything unusual about that anymore

srsly though, coming to Waka after the indefensible SHIT I just sat through makes me want to go back and apologize to you guys for all the mocking; if only I'd been paying attention to what the other choices were I'd have gotten it

racks & tony montana are the increasingly rare late-era innovations on the futuristic swag template

er, song
