Ursher - “Yeah”. No.

”California Love” Original version. Hear me out:
I get it that Dre an’em (*rolls eyes*) replayed the sample, but fucc that - I hear that riff and my mind says
”MFs bit ‘Knick Knack Patty Wack’ from EPMD then changed the best part!”
So it never really got no burn from me. And then, as a native Californian they played the almighty fucc out
of it every gottdamn where. You go to a Quinceneara and they play all mariachi chit, then California Love. Sheeit.
Im alright with the remix doe, because the beat is more funky.


Mario - “Let Me Love You”
This is the most average R&B song ever, I don’t get why this gets so much play.

Mary J. Blige - “Family Affair”
Another overrated Dre beat, plus something just doesn’t feel right hearing Mary say “crunk”.
And they really tried to make “dancery” happen as a word. It ain’t gonna happen.

I feel this way about most Usher songs.

How Could You is such a better song than Let Me Love You but old school radio stations don’t care.

I DESPISED Family Affair with a passion ever since it’s release in 2001. Horrible beat and lyrics.

I heard BBD "Poison" the other day and it dawned on me that if I never heard that song again I'd be completely fine. One of the greatest songs ever made don't get me wrong but I've heard it enough times to last a lifetime there's no more joy I can get from it. Blackstreet "No Diggity" is another one for me that I'm good on for life. Feel free to add yours.
Problem with some of these records is that they’re the staple “grown and sexy” and “wedding party” songs so you always hear them. There are way better songs you can hear at these events but these are just safe universal standards that people will keep playing to not offend crowds or make statements ostensibly of the audience isn’t aware of.

Empire State of Mind - Legit, I've always found this song to be annoying af, but I recognize it's a classic song. For like 15 straight years, anytime an NY team played a home game, ESPN would play the hook leading into the commercial breaks.

nikkaz In Paris - so played out, never thought much of the beat

Anything by Pitbull or T-Pain. They were always OD corny to me

Real Slim Shady - Beat is fukking garbage sounding like a cartoon carnival ride

Ignition remix - was played out in 02...

"So baby, gimme that "Toot-toot"
And let me give you that "Beep-beep"" was always corny af...hordes of better Kels songs to to choose from

The video version of ONE more Chance…



I hated that version tbh. It was too sappy.


It didn’t help that the radio was playing the hell out of it years after Biggie died.

I can add many 2000’s era songs but I’ll just say DMX- Party Up. I don’t hate the song or anything but maaan people played tf out of that song when it came out! The beat is annoying and X’s rhymes on the song make me cringe. I’d be fine if I never hear that song again

Thoia Toing was worse than that….

U can tell that R.Kelly was running out of things to talk about.


That song sounded like a leftover song for Big Tymers for their next album.

Imagine the exchange between those three and Kellz.

(Birdman and Mannie Fresh walks into R. Kelly’s studio)

Birdman: Hey Pleighboi, we need some beats for the last Big Tymers CD.

(Kellz plays Thoia Thoing)


Birdman: Nah, this ain’t it. Weezy can rap on this but usss… nooo.


We need that classic R.Kelly with a touch of Big Tymers.


Kellz: I got just the thing for you


(plays Gangsta Girl)


Mannie Fresh: Cat Daddy u did it !!! This is the one.
