2683223, sesame street rap: lil flip - this is the way we ball Posted by david bammer, Sat Apr-07-12 07:44 PM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-6s0gWWkbk
i don't know when the last time this was ever played... anywhere. but i am working on the best songs of 2002 list and came to this induction... i never paid much attention to this song outside of the hook when it was out. but now that it has my attention - i'm starting to wonder... was flipper on the verge of birthing a new sub-genre on this one? i really think this song could have been included in one of those small children's displays inside a drug store where you press a button and it plays 10 seconds of a song for toddlers.
additionally, i think this song could have been useful for people recovering from head trauma accidents or people born with chromosomal learning disorders like down and/or edwards syndrome.
really don't know if people "got" this one back in 2002.

2683301, Chain Hang Low is usually thrown in this category Posted by Nodima, Sun Apr-08-12 02:51 AM
but when I went back to listen to it recently it turns out the verses were really on a totally different vibe from the chorus everyone remembers. lot of Twista-lite spitting and a really evil sounding Shawty Redd type beat.

publically fueding with daz for a few years and then making up like nothing happened. making movies with steven segal. his verses on too shorts "i luv" being so wack they were taken off the finished version.
his career has been over since about '01.
