When you first start rhyming
It started off slow and then you start climbing
But it wasn't fast enough I guess
So you gave your other style a test
You was hardcore hip-hop
Now look at yourself, boy you done flip-flopped
Giving our music away to the mainstream
Don't you know they ain't down with the team
They just sent they boss over
Put a bug in your ear and now you crossed over
On MTV but they don't care
They'll have a new nigga next year
You out in the cold
No more white fans and no more soul
And you might have a heart attack
When you find out the black folks don't want you back
And you know what's worse?
You was just like the nigga in the first verse
Stop selling out your race
And wipe that stupid-ass smile off your face
Niggas always gotta show they teeth
Now I'm a be brief
Be true to the game
Ice Cube ( Be True to the Game)
Today is Wednesday. And today's vibe will be sports and entertainment.
Surprisingly, we are almost HALFWAY through this year. Before you know it, Christmas will be here again. A lot has happened in the 5 months of 08. There's been a lotta good (OBAMA, baby), bad (Brittney Spears), and ugly (Flavor of Love...season 3)
Today, I'm gonna give you a few good things...bad things...and ugly things from 08 from the world of sports and entertainment

Oh praise the Lawd I'm first! Do I win a prize or something cause I'll take a half pint of Crown Royal. You kno I likes to use that bag to save my pennies! Plus Crown Royal on ice aint to bad either.
ReplyDeleteLet me see here:
Good:

Bad:

Ugly:

-I personally thanks that Jay Z fellow is ugly. I could have hooked Beyonce up with 1 of my 13 childrens'. She could have got with one of my boys and I even got a girl who thank she a boy. So she had plenty of choices pending on what floats her boat.
Take care now.

bad: 1) still. 2) unemployed. 3) since august '07.
ugly: 1) found out old landlord was in foreclosure and we were forced to move on short notice. 2) not being able to spend both our income tax refund or this coming stimulus check because of moving expenses and bill "ketchup" (see the bad as part to blame).
