2010 VH1 Hip Honors - Some Things Don't Add Up

Posted by Jay at 2:18 PM 1 comments
I finally got around to watching HHH Dirty South edition. Man, Uncle Luke had me busting a move like it was 1995. "Cap d coming, Cap d coming, Cap d coming....doodoo brown!" I had forgotten Trick Daddy was in Scarred. Now that is hip hop!!


The other stand out of the night was Timbaland's tribute. Timbo has some serious classics under his belt. Every song I heard was a banger then and now. What would have put the icing on the cake is Jay Z spitting one verse of Big pimpin with Bun B. But it's alright, it's okay, we have Missy Elliot. I for one am eagerly awaiting her new cd.


Few thoughts that ran through my mind:
  • As much as I love Timbo, since when is Virginia part of the Dirty South?
  • Man, Mystikal is hype!
  • Why wasn't I in college in the early 90's so I could attend freaknik?
  • Asher Roth needs to hire a stylist. Not a good look Mr. Roth!
  • Why were Cash Money Millionaires not included?
  • Where was the rest of Goodie Mob during the Organized Noize tribute and Outkast?
  • Aren't there Southern female rappers who could have been honored e.g. Gangsta Boo?

Baba baba babam, ba babam ba babam ba bababam bam

I am ashamed to say this but, my sister introduced me to my new favorite song. I cannot get enough of this song. How did it start? She kept saying "Have you not heard this song?" Then would sing "Baba baba babam, ba babam ba babam ba bababam bam" over and over and over again. How is anyone supposed to know what she's singing? This reminds me of my friend *Tiffany. She kept asking a friend of mine who deejays if he could play a song for her. She didn't know the name or the singer but all she knew was "Na na na na na". Mind you, it wasn't even in tune. I wish I had a clip of this. Do you know which songs I'm talking about?



Why is Big Boi's (of Outkast fame) debut album not out yet? Why oh why? With a title like Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty, how can you not be curious about this. Shutterbug really stands out to me. "Royal Flush" was eeh, "Something's gotta give" was hhhmm. But after hearing "Shutterbug", I cannot wait to hear more. Boi stop! Thanks sis.

As for Tiffany's request, tell me how you could possible know she was referring to the below.
