just about to say that. Sickest story song ever. haha and btw its Renee. the lines are just so sick.

"here's a tune about this honey named Renee

That I met one day

On my way back from John Jay

I'm peepin' shorty as she's walking to the train

I tap her on her shoulders

Excuse me Miss, but can I get your name

She said my name is Renee

I said I got a whole lot to say

So may I walk you to your subway"

first verse, and the beats to go with the song are epic

 

[AtomicTweaker]

for some reason i think of "luck of lucien" by a tribe called quest....its supposed to be cheesy haha

 

[miker92]

get down- nas

and

50,000 deep- blue scholars... a really well written rant on the power of the government and its attack on one of the largest (if not the largest) nonviolent protests in the history of the world... it really makes you think
