My little sister (8) has a boyfreind who is into what she calls 'rap.' She played me a bunch of stuff she taped off the radio - over the phone- and asked me to make CDs for her of it. I'd like to do it. Over the phone, it all sounds like gabba noise, but I was able to make out 50's "What Up Gangster," Fergie's "Londone Bridge," TI's "Bring 'Em Out," and Shakira / Wyclef's "Hips Don't Lie." There are a few others I cannot figure out - one has Fergie and Snoop on it but I don't think it's that one Too $hort song. Another one has a chorus that sounds like it just says "James...James...James - things (aren't the?) same." The last one is a dancehall sounding one that keeps repeating "Uh Oh!!!"
To quote Chubb Rock, I'm lost in the storm here, folks. Help me out?

Well, "boyfriend," not boyfriend. It's a boy she likes, and wants to impress, I guess, by showing off her love of urban musics. Geez, I dunno, I live like 1000 miles away. If I didn't, she'd be locked in a room listening to "Into The Void" on repeat at top volume until she came to her damn senses.

"Uh Oh" could be either Lumidee or Ja Rule.

Or the Junkyard Band. All the kids are into Go-go these days.

Surely the Timbaland/FOB collab "Once in a Lifetime" is desperately needed on one of these mixes!

kids still tape things off the radio??? that's awesome.

Well, yeah, she does. Hot 97 I think. Again, eight years old.
I should break out my old Red Alert and Funkmaster Flex tapes for her and school her good

Another one has a chorus that sounds like it just says "James...James...James - things (aren't the?) same."
Sounds like Fiddy but who the fuck knows. Over the phone it sounds like pure noise. Help me out!!

FOUND IT! It's Spider Loc - "Things Change," from the Get Rich Or Die Tryin' soundtrack. A real piece of crapola it is, too.
