<br>For me, it's late 80's /early 90's hit rap songs. I can rap right along with Baby Got Back, The Humpty Dance, Tennessee, Jump Around etc. Really though, I'm not even embarrassed to admit that.

Ha ha, that's like that episode of [i]Friends[/i] where both Ross and Rachel discover that their baby will stop crying when they "rap" "Baby Got Back" to it. They felt incredibly guilty, and it was funny hilarious.

What about "O.P.P."; that's my guilty late 80's rap pleasure.
"...who's down with O.P.P.? Ya, you know me!".....even after my husband told me what that meant, I still like it.[:p]

Much prefer that one![;)]

I wish I could rap like Treach and do justice to O.P.P. [:D] I can do a pretty passable "Informer" though so that oughtta count for something.

[/quote]

Artist: Naughty By Nature (Buy Naughty By Nature CDs)
Album: Naughty By Nature



Army with harmony
Dave drop a load on 'em

OPP how can I explain it
I'll take you frame by frame it
To have y'all jumpin' shall we singin' it
O is for Other P is for People scratchin' temple
The last P...well...that's not that simple
It's sorta like another way to call a cat a kitten
It's five little letters that are missin' here
You get on occassion at the other party
As a game 'n it seems I gotta start to explainin'
Bust it
You ever had a girl and met her on a nice hello
You get her name and number and then you feelin' real mellow
You get home, wait a day, she's what you wanna know about
Then you call up and it's her girlfriend or her cousin's house
It's not a front, F to the R to the O to the N to the T
It's just her boyfriend's at her house (Boy, that's what is scary)
It's OPP, time other people's what you get it
There's no room for relationship there's just room to hit it
How many brothers out there know just what I'm gettin' at
Who thinks it's wrong 'cos I'm splittin' and co-hittin' at
Well if you do, that's OPP and you're not down with it
But if you don't, here's your membership

Chorus:
You down with OPP (Yeah you know me) 3X
Who's down with OPP (Every last homie)
You down with OPP (Yeah you know me) 3X
Who's down with OPP (All the homies)

As for the ladies, OPP means something gifted
The first two letters are the same but the last is something
different
It's the longest, loveliest, lean-- I call it the leanest
It's another five letter word rhymin' with cleanest and meanest
I won't get into that, I'll do it...ah...sorta properly
I say the last P...hmmm...stands for property
Now lady here comes a kiss, blow a kiss back to me, now tell me
exactly
Have you ever known a brother who have another like ah girl or wife
And you just had to stop and just 'cos he look just as nice
You looked at him, he looked at you and you knew right away
That he had someone but he was gonna be yours anyway
You couldn't be seen with him and honestly you didn't care
'Cos in a room behind a door no one but y'all are there
When y'all are finish, y'all can leave and only y'all would know
And then y'all could throw the skeleton bones right in the closet do'
Now don't be shocked 'cos if you're down I want your hands up high
Say OPP (OPP) I like to say with pride
Now when you do it, do it well and make sure that it counts
You're now down with a discount

Oh, HAHA - my virgin ears! J/K. Geez, what a dumb thing to sing about. I personally prefer more profound, poetic and deeper lyrics. That's one of the things I always loved about New Wave. I think we have some of the best lyricists around. Give me Martin Gore, Morrissey, Neil Tennant, Bernard Sumner anyday.

You down with opp? Yeah, you know me!

I have been know to be in a bar or two in my youth. Anyone that has hung out in a pub will say the same. Billy Joel- piano man is a great bar song.

I think I'd have to be pretty drunk, too, to enjoy Billy Joel.

I saw him once driving on the street with a HOT blonde next to him while I was on the way to the gym. He lives not too far away from me. Piano Man is a great song though. Good singing song.
