well i couldn't take it no more. member that "oww, my nose!!!" brady bunch epsiode? or the "moms favorite vase, she always said 'don't play ball in the house'" they would toss and turn in dreams, to hear those words uttered?

well, this "roots and clones" thing was bothering me. so i did waht any self respecting wu fan would do.

proach a nigga.

kinda. mal is tight with boi (dog thing), i know dre. so i 2-wayed him. and asked what's up? (me i thought it was a snipe at nappy roots.....but i wanted to make sure.)


FRUITS AND CLONES.

yes once again this group gets victimized by insulting words that sound like their name.

thank god we weren't named "the wussies"

[]along w/ the Chicaquite Banana Lady, that sheep and George Lucas in a class action suit

dddd

>thank god we weren't named "the wussies"

lol.

Well muh deah (granny, for those unfamiliar with suthin' terms!) always said, you know you're doing something right when people talk about you...sort of a ass backwards compliment...y'all are on those niccas' minds.

*****************************************************************

how does dre feel now?

i mean....like if phonte called me and was like "yo i was listening to your song and you said something about "i punish my little brother"....what did you mean by that?"

i'd tell him i want dissing, but then id get off the phone like "damn he thought i dissed them! were they about to dis me because of that?"

you know what im saying? i wonder if dre thinks the roots were all ready to fire back.

(i promise im not trying to start no shit)

like.. I dissed the shit out of you on my album and now I'm thinking of sly ways to deny it.. like "nah I said 'vibrant'"

makes no sense in the context of the song lyrics in my opinion but yeah okay. Glad to see it was all cleared up

was there a "dis" track by outkast against the roots and/or nappy roots or some shit like that?

im totally lost as well.

land of a million drums...there's a line that says something about fruit and clones, mad heads around these parts thought it said roots and clones, it didn't. blah, blah, blah

nice to know.

Peace,

biggie smalls speech impediment strikes again!!!

invisible bully like the roots!
lol

it wouldn't have been so confusing if he didn't mention freestyling in the next few lines... that was a bit of a bug out on first listen or so....

i haven't heard this new tounge twist yet, but it's funny how these things happen...

YO

PHANTOM MENACE INVISIBLE BULLY TO CLONES

ATTACK

WHATEVA

I've been MIA. I am lost. What's the origin to this post?

te ORIGINAL origin to the topic was the Craig Mack "Flavor in Your Ear" remix- where Biggie says "invisible bully like the gooch..."
which people took to say invisible bully like the Roots etc... then he mentions freestyling which furthur made people think he was referring to the roots/riw etc...
it was a pretty hot topic for a week or so before clarity arrived.. and this is pre-okayplayer, and not far enough into the world wide web world for word (for or against the theory) to spread...

PoZi (;=

my boy was telling me about this just yesterday as i played that record....and i thought it made sense, for all that "one more chance" spoofing in "what they do". but, then i thought the remix had come out b4 "what they do".....thanx for clearing out the confusion.
now enlighten me please...
...invisible like the "GOOCH"?

?

peace.
r.

why do i suddenly feel like a very, very, old man....

the gooch!?!?!?

how can i explain this one... am i really that old?

the gooch man, you know... the walk on character that never walked on (unless it was on somebody's grill), the teacher in charlie brown (at least you heard the voice), an invisible ripple underwater that causes a tidal wave?

anyway, long ago, when child stars were still all the rage, when inter-racial adoption (and the "hil-ari-ous calamities" that ensued) were still considered prime time fodder... there was a show called "Different Strokes"...

pre-crack smokin todd bridges and pre-all sorts of bad made for tv movies (actually during sort of- counting "The Kid From Left Field", a guest appearance on "Buck Rogers" and the sort of play on interracial adoption (and the aforementioned "hil-ari-ous calamities" that ensued) "On the Right Track) Gary Coleman's greatest fear was the Gooch... some dude that was always whippin' somebody's a**, but never (as far as i know) getting any camera time...

hence, invisible bully like the gooch...

of course biggie also said- "Blow up like the World Trade Center"... but that's a different song...

PoZi (;=

You're been hanging around us and Ahmir too long...hahaha

prov, nice guyana flag there

what u know about Essequibo?

got a friend from round them parts...

PoZi (;=

But my family on my mother's side lives there. I heard it was nice. My uncle use to run the boats on the river (Speaking of which, you ain't live until you go on one of their speedboats with no lifejackets).

I wanna visit Guyana soon and hit the waterfalls...

yeah, a coworker was raised there...
it's on my favorite place list for 3 reasons-

Walter Rodney
Linton Kwesi Johnson
Kool-Aid

i still remember the first time i heard that... i had the Flavor remix maxisingle tape- the one where if you flipped the reverse switch on your walkman (i was living large back then- my walkman had a rewind button, AND a reverse switch!) and it would allmost loop the track...
anyway, i was etting on the 18 bus when that lyric hit- i got yelled at by the bus driver cause i stopped in mid transpass swipe to rewind the tape and listen to it again...
i was half mad at biggie (for "dissing" the roots) and half semi-stoked that the group had made enough noise to warrant mention in a song of that (i hate to say caliber) level of noteriety...

PoZi (;=

all at once now though!

"Now the world don't move
To the beat of just one drum
What might be right to you..."

ya'll know the rest!

Thanks Mpozi but how does Kast fit into all this?

outkasts new joint "land of a thousand drums" off of scooby soundtrack has a line that I thought said "roots and clones" i made a post about it thinking outkast was giving props to the roots for their song clones talking about some wack-ass mc's, some other heads thought it was a dis, now we all know the lyric in question did not say roots and clones it said fruits and clones or whatever so no big deal next question

Thanks. That was what I missed.
