Never Forget is a thread series where you and I - your host, Taadow - revisit hits that may have been pushed back in the attic of our minds. Today, Mellow Man Ace - "Mentirosa".




"B-B-BUT WAS IT REALLY A HIT??"

Billboard Hot 100 Peak: #14
Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks Peak: #60
Billboard Hot Rap Singles Peak: #15
Billboard Hot Dance Music/Maxi-Singles Sales Peak: #10
Billboard Hot Latin Tracks Peak: #34
UK Singles Chart Peak: #99

AFTERMATH:

- This is the first "Latin" rap hit.

- the beat was made by Tony G. You may not know him.
But the scratches were done by his little brother - Julio G. The west coast DJ supreme,
and the only DJ who always playin' west coast music on west coast radio. Salute.

Today's his bday apparently so Big Boy was playing this song. I don't remember this song when it was out, but hear it out here in LA every now and then.

I'm surprised no one has done an updated version...its very #HOH #GMB

A la casa de tu tio (Huh?)
Resulta ser hey you were at a party
Higher than the sky
Emborrachada de Bacardi (no i wasn't)

mellow-"Girl, I can't believe it.
You know, my mother's talking about me,
my friends are talking about me. Not me about you."
girl-"About me?"
mellow- "You're nothing but a skeezer"
girl- "A skeezer? Don't be calling me no skeezer!"
mellow-"Tu tienes mucho flojera mami si, uh huh, la verdad."
girl- "Uh huh. Eso es lo que tu te crees."
mellow-"I bet you go to church and you're scared to confess."
girl-"No, I do confess baby. I do confess."
mellow-"Uh huh. Do you tell the truth, though?"
girl-"Yeah I do."
mellow-"Yeah right."
girl-"Do you?"
mellow-"Yeah! You're nothing but a skeezer you know what?
I got some other stories to say about you. And it goes like this."

Un dia estaba en tu casa y ring there goes the phone

y antes que colgaste I heard u say ("I'll wear a dress.")
alabao que descarada is what ran through my mind
so I say lets go out tonight", she says ("we go out all time.")
"oh, oh man!"
ella no sabia that yo I knew her plan,
de que iba a salir with that other man
so I told the girl in Spanish I said "hey ya me voy." (pero porque?)
cause you ain't treating me like I'm some sucker toy
cause who needs u anyways (I need you!)
con tu lengua venenosa (No te vayas Mellow, no te vayas! Yo te necesito!)
