I never knew this..this should get a few of yous wet






“It was like my open letter to Nas,” she said. “I really wanted to be his girl so bad. I thought that I was gonna sing this song, I was gonna do a video, I was gonna look beautiful, and he was gonna be beating down my door to marry me. No...y’all think I’m playing, I was so serious.”

:gurl:

one of my favorite songs.



(I always liked the video for it too. that and Ashanti's Rain On Me.)

All Nas stans know this :hhh:

But nah lol, this is the epitome of an R&B classic. The whole album Complex Simplicity is just criminally underrated and is still one of the best R&B albums to drop in the past two decades, there's just very few that come close. Beyonce, Rihanna, Mariah Carey, etc, none have an album as good that dropped since 2000. Mariah, it's actually debatable with Emancipation of Mimi but mainly because of how big some of those records were and it's popularity, not the overall writing, producing and cohesion of songs. Complex Simplicity still gets regular play from me and really captures the essence of R&B/Hip Hop throughout the album, really the last great one we've had from a female artist.

Teedra still bad, she aging beautifully. Shout out to Teedra, and she can sing her ass off. She in Sacramento tonight and I'm way out here on the East Coast, I'd damn sure be at that show!

In the Rotten Apple, take a bite taste the worm
Embrace the world of reality we're faced to learn
Coke connection drug bust, graveyards where thugs rest
I keep my mug blessed, the evil is illegal substance sold
Roll mob deep, guns in the black Jeep
Mac-11's and legends, cracks in the streets
Patroller, gold money-folder, gun happy soldiers
Never sober takin over, my blood is colder
nikkaz respect violence so I become it
I'm from it, I even done it blunted so run it:blessed:
