my vote wld go to Cee-Lo Green, off the track, Iam Selling Soul, where he says: "Everything must go!..There is no part of me that cant be calculated into a commodity....Whether youre selling a dream, selling a scheme or playing a role...We are selling soul"

what are your fave lyrical lines of the past year, whether from hip-hop, MC-Grime or rawk or pop???

Freeway(or Bleek): "Stick to making beats"
JustBlaze: "I'll stick to ya moms, n*gga"
Memphis Bleek - Blaze Bleek and Free



having thought about it for a minute I could nominate fifty other snippets from RnB and HipHop, but in all honestly I hadn't really listened to the lyrics at some of my moments of the year. And I'm not half as into them now I know what they're sayin.

Mine are from a freestlye on (I think) a So So Def mixtape, by Ludacris: "2004, the world needs more lesbians/And more drunk drivers to hit drunk pedestrians."

Well I rode up to Springfield on my motorcycle
and I was going to stay with my younger brother Michael.
On Mom's oxycontin and the Amstel light
I noticed I was doing most of the talking that night.
