crunkin it up
Published December 08, 2004
I dunno man, I'm a big fence walker when it comes to this crunk shit. I mean, I shake my ass & bounce around, but then, like, some of that shit is SO annoying, I mean, ya heard? It's like, the dude's just yelling at you. Or, dudes. Whatever.
Anyway, I had the distinction of listening to the ying yang twin's new one & lil jon (and, please don't forget the east side boyz, well actually, they do the real rapping, or do they? Or, shit, I dunno)
So, anyway. Of the two I have to say I like the ying yang twins one better. But this is a diff kind of hip hop my peeps. I dunno what yall hurd aboot the durty durty, but it's like, just yell & shake your ass and everything will work out. Except that slow motion song. I hate that shit. And I was a big fan of souljah slim, but, I derno, I shouldn't' blab that, but it was on vhi top 50 "love to hate" songs, wait, no, awesomely bad songs, of 2004.
And VH1 KEPT having to repeat that line, every guest was like "yah, the awesomely bad songs," etcetera, and then extra crap. Anyway, so, shit, it's like, but that's an acocmplishement to be one of those and the ying yang twins should be proud, it's not like no names are out there, I mean you had britney spears with her cover of that, shit, I don't remember.
So yup. But there are some bumpin songs on the ying yang twins ok I just put it on, ok, see the thing is I like talking shit about this music but secretly like it. Damn you ying yang twins!!! I mean, all you have to do is say eenie meenie minie moe, and I'm right back with you. So, there's good & bad.
They don't yell as much, I mean, as repetitively, as lil jon. So, where was I? Oh, I was very disappointed with pitbull's verse on the salt shaker extended remix. I expected WAY better. But alas, that is the environs of the "extended" remix, but shouldn't be, I derno. He'll come back, luckily it's the very very last verse? I think.
But, fuck, it's not like this shit's about the rapping, it's the best thing to go with the beat, or shake your ass.
Lil jon. Too much yelling. But, shit, sold an assload of records sold, broke the record for independent label methinks? So whut the fuck do I know. I actually, as mentioned, shook my ass off to it the other night, packing clothes, heading bayside, so it elevates good memories, so I derno. It has bounce, it's just, extended periods of lil jon yelling the same verse, like "goddammn ni**as looking at me gonna catch as ass beating!!" over & over, or something like that, na mean? And what exactly is it to twerp? If an ode I could write, anyways, peace out and werdemup from Count Crunkula.
Ps: song 4 on the ying twins is D O P E, production, rhymes, whole 9. it's, like, uh, forget it.
PPS: I take back whut I said about pitbull's verse on that song, it's actually prolly the best on the song. I think I was smoking crack that day. Werd. And yes I am just some idiot talking. Mahalo.
