American Music: The South vs. The Rest of the United States, Which is Better?

[JohnT]

The two people (on this board) whose musical opinions/knowledge I respect the most are Buck and Boris. So, if Buck sez the South is #1 in American music, then it is so.

Deal with it.

Buck said Missy Elliot is brilliant.

Missy Elliot - Work It

{*scratching*} DJ please, pick up your phone
I'm on the request line {*scratching*}
This is a Missy Elliott one time exclusive
(C'mon, c'mon)

Chorus:
Is it worth it, let me work it
I put my thing down, flip it and reverse it
{*"I put my thing down, flip it and reverse it" - backwards 2X*}
If you got a big [elephant], let me search ya
To find out how hard I gotta work ya
{*"I put my thing down, flip it and reverse it" - backwards 2X*}

I'd like to get to know ya so I could show ya
Put the ***** on ya like I told ya
Gimme all your numbers so I could phone ya
Your girl actin' stank then call me over
Not on the bed, lay me on your sofa
Phone before you come, I need to shave my chocha
You do or you don't or you will or won't ya
Go downtown and eat it like a vulture
See my hips and my tips, don't ya
See my ass and my lips, don't ya
Lost a few pounds in my waist for ya
This be the beat that goes ba ta ta
ba ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta
Sex me so good I say blah-blah-blah
Work it, I need a glass of water
Boy, oh, boy, it's good to know ya

Repeat Chorus

If you a fly gal get your nails done
Get a pedicure, get your hair did
Boy, lift it up, let's make a toast-a
Let's get drunk, that's gon' bring us closer
Don't I look like a Halle Berry poster
See the Belvedere playin' tricks on ya
Girlfriend wanna be like me, never
You won't find a ***** that's even better
I make you hot as Las Vegas weather
Listen up close while I take it backwards
(Watch the way Missy like to take it backwards) [backwards]
I'm not a prostitute, but I could give you what you want
I love your braids and your mouth full of floss
Love the way my ass go bum-bum-bum-bum
Keep your eyes on my bum-bum-bum-bum-bum
And think you can handle this gadong-a-dong-dong
Take my thong off and my ass go vroom
Cut the lights off so you see what I could do

Repeat Chorus:


Boys, boys, all type of boys
Black, white, Puerto Rican, Chinese boys
Why-thai,-thai-o-toy-o-thai-thai
Rock-thai,-thai-o-toy-o-thai-thai
Girl, girl, get that cash
If it's 9 to 5 or shakin' your ass
Ain't no shame, ladies do your thang
Just make sure you ahead of the game
Just 'cause I got a lot of fame supa
Prince couldn't get me change my name papa
Kunta Kinte a slave again, no sir
Picture black sayin', "Oh, yes a master"
Picture Lil' Kim dating a pastor
Minnie Me and Big Ren can out last ya
Who is the best, I don't have to ask ya
When I come out you won't even matter
Why you act dumb like "Uh, duh"
So you act dumb like "Uh, duh"
As the drummer boy go ba-rom-pop-pom-pom
Give you some-some-some of this Cinnabun

Repeat Chorus

To my fellas, ooooh
Good God, I like the way you work that
{*scratching: "Peter Piper" featuring Jam Master Jay*}
To my ladies, woo
You sure know how to work that, good God

'nuff said.

[SlowwHand]

Janis Joplin was from Port Arthur, Texas.
Hard what one classifies as "country".
Stevie Ray Vaughn, Boz Scaggs, Pantera; Dallas.

Sheeeit. Do I need to "crack" a reference book for you people ?

They're all crap, where's the real rockers Slowwy??!

[JohnT]

Buck also respects soul and funk.

So he likes a little crap*... don't we all? Hell, even I, a man whose sense of taste defines refinement, can listen to 80's music on occasion.

*Not having heard "Miss Elliot", I am going by your implication, Asher.

[Asher]

My favorite Missy Elliot quote:

This be the beat that goes ba ta ta
ba ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta ta
Sex me so good I say blah-blah-blah

Buck is right, this is brilliant!!

[SlowwHand]

You have no taste, Asher. You're like a Canadian Sava.
WTF do I care what you say?

[JohnT]

You're like a Canadian Sava.

Ouch! Now, that was a low blow.

An old man in Texas saying someone else has no taste.

Show me your belt buckle, big boy!

[SlowwHand]

The glow would put your eyes out, Asher Floyd.

[Asher]

I've just got this little mental image in my head of you being Hank Hill...

[SlowwHand]

More like Boomhauer.

[Sava]

JohnT: What Asher said...

Asher: hah! Sloww probably has a huge gold belt buckle that says "BOSS" on it...

Ouch! Now, that was a low blow

yeah I know, I'd never want to be called a Canadian!!

I have a unique sense of taste. My musical interests range from Classical to Electronic music to Metal to Rap... harmonious melody entices me as much as passionate lyrics... My mood dictates the music I like and vice-versa. Sometimes I like music that is beautiful, sometimes I want to listen to something that says "**** THE WORLD". I tend to dislike music that follows trends or that is manufactured by record companies... I also dislike commercialization. That's about it.

And no offense Buck, but if you like Missy Elliot... well...... ::shivers::
