Song is classic, still gives me shivers. Its a shame how the media doesn't want to give R. Kelly props as one of the GOATS. Song makes me go back to my early middle school years, also brings back memories to my cousin who was killed.

It gets me everytime, this track......I was so young when I first heard it, in like 2000, and in the next few years I would learn all about death, guilt, remorse, but before I really I knew, I felt this song..... and I still remember my homies wake and how he looked in the casket, and how fukked up I got for like a week after, passing out in class from all the valium I was taking, and not sleeping smoking a blunt with my two boys a few days after the funeral, parked in a car siting in the backseat and I just started crying, I couldn't even fight it.... thinking how my friend would never graduate, never get his GED, never see his girl again, never see his mom, never get those chances... and the absolution of death was kinda felt all in that moment...

'and all I wanted was to be a better man, and try to keep it real with my homies man'

Top five R. Kelly songs TPS2 is easily a classic. I remember I use to play that album non stop when it came out with my family it's kinda awkward now that I think about it listening to Feeling on Your Booty with your mother in the car. :skip:
