"Roses" by Outkast is filled with wisdom

its alot of singers who cant sing and get away with it, rkelly and keith sweat has talked in tune for decades

R kelly's not the greatest vocalist but he can sing, he rap sings on purpose
I believe on the Fly is a prime example of him actually singing stop it

plus the problem with the album was production, the beats were wack

tell me if im lying about my 1st post

u would be amazed what u missed when the album was out

u will see why idlewild was originally dre's idea and his album was the soundtrack to the album, but once it got shelved, nobody wanted to touch it, they redid the entire movie and hbo picked it up and it changed

I fukked with songs like Spread, Prototype, She Lives in My Lap and Pink & Blue Heavy.

Got tired of Hey Ya, but the narrative is

took me 4yrs to appreciate atliens and stankonia

same for me with aquemini. i thought it was hit or miss at first but now it's my fav album from them (used to hate mamacita but now i love it cause i realized it kinda goes hard on some sinister shyt)

If we're talking about Idlewild, the song below was basically him alluding to his career ending. 3 stacks has so many gems.

my favorite song from Idlewild

i wouldn't say sad but the subject matter is not joyful though. it's basically about dude being in a relationship just out of habit eventhough they're both unhappy.

**snorts 2929seconds***

nah they both not unhappy, dre is unhappy because the chick aint ready for it, boy is delusional

alot of people have said the album goes on a trip thru dre's relationships

the old school was erykah

caroline was keisha from total

because he gives a recap at the end of the album

dre said keisha fukked him up before to where he was like fukk a hoe...then erykah came along

I'll give you one more on top of that.

Rosa Parks went over alot of heads too. He was dropping some jewels on that, had nothing to do with the theme of the song.

The gypsy= Badu
Life game= They only love u when u on top
His favorite group= Tribe Called Quest
The album = Beats Rhymes and Life

The story how fleeting success and fame is. And the reason why he never released another album = Failure and falling off.

I met a gypsy and she hipped me to some life game
To stimulate then activate the left and right brain
Said baby boy you only funky as your last cut
You focus on the past your ass'll be a has what
Thats one to live by or either that one to die to
I try to just throw it at you determine your own adventure
Andre, got to her station here's my destination
She got off the bus, the conversation lingered in my head for hours
Took a shower kinda sour cause my favorite group ain't comin with it
But I'm witcha you cause you probably goin through it anyway
But anyhow when in doubt went on out and bought it
Cause I thought it would be jammin but examine all the flawsky-wawsky
Awfully, it's sad and it's costly, but that's all she wrote
And I hope I never have to float in that boat
Up shyt creek it's weak is the last quote
That I want to hear when I'm goin down when all's said and done
And we got a new joe in town
When the record player get to skippin and slowin down
All yawl can say is them nikkas earned that crown but until then...

nah breh, dre is p*ssy whipped,

ol girl been done with dre, he the one hurt, the im jus bein honest daddy caddy momma cumma shyt is her, its goin thru his head. he was just a fukk buddy

why u think the very next song roses, its fukk that bytch i hope u die in a wreck bytch

nikka sprung on some good p*ssy, would act just like 3stacks did on every song, from prototype- roses,

nikkas wont admit it

but they will one night a bytch..if the shyt good, they gone wanna see the hoe again goto the movies and shyt...then after 2nd date, all lames in their mind they go together

but the broad aint respondin..to the lames calls


.they sittin at home wonderin worryin every fukked up scenario is poppin up in their head because, they feel r in a relationship

once they finally get in touch with ol girl, the shyt dre says in hey ya , the lame will say it, thinkin the broad is theirs, but she gives em a reality check, then thats when roses kicks in, its fukk that bytch hope u die hoe
