Do the Shuffle

Nannersp inspired me to list the first 10 songs that play on the shuffle function on my iPod.

1. Shorty Wanna Ride - Young Buck - Crazy robbing video - does not make me want to be a robber - I do not want to ride - what does shorty mean? Urban dictionary defines shorty as "affectionate term for a girlfriend, attractive girlfriend or concubine."

2. Can I have It Like That - Pharrell and Gwen Stefani - Dislike and HP Commercials

3. Fully Loaded - 50 Cent - Basic tenant of this song: While everyone was lovin' I was gang bangin. LOL. Whatever 50 cent. You are a millionaire living in Connecticut. Which is cool and all but while jay was kissing B you were counting cash at the bank.

4. Blood - Kacy Crowley - I have never heard this song and I have no clue why/how it is on my ipod. Who put this here? The iPod ghost? Yuck.

5. I Want U - Floetry - Floetry is the best group ever. I love their music and have seen them several times in concert. Unfortunately they have broken up. That makes me sad. Allegedly the group is rejoining but with a new member. This sound of this song so conveys I Want You. The yearning is so evident. I have to hit forward because I don't want to dwell on the past. That is where this song takes me.

6. Do You Remember - Jill Scott - Love Her. Hated that awful wig in Why Did I Get Married. With that wig on it should have been titled How Did I Let Them Make Me Wear This Rug. A lot of Jill's music was inspired by her husband. They are now getting a divorce. I wonder why and how that makes her feel.

7. Where We At - Jurassic 5 - G gives me a lot of music. We went to see Jurassic 5 at 9:30 club last year. They are great performers. I don't know this song but I don't think it is their best.

8. Compton - The Game - LOL. This song sample's Gangster B*tch by Apache. When I was 10 I snuck and bought Apache's cassette tape while my mom was in another store at the mall. When we got in the car she kept asking me what I bought. I finally showed her and she put it in the deck. I was in trouble. She yelled at me all the way home from Oakland mall. Something about how the lyrics were degrading. Mom, Apache was simply trying to convey that he needed a woman that was as strong as he was. Sorry mom, I still listen to rap music. For atonement I try to mix in a little Mos Def and Common.

9. Chop Me Up - Jutin Timberlake and Three 6 Mafia - Not the best song on the FutureSex/LoveSounds CD. The beat is nice. Three 6 Mafia has won an Oscar but this is not their best work. Nuff' Said.

10. Glamorous - Fergie - Tony Soprano once said that "remember when" conversations are the lowest form of discussion. Whatever Tony. Remember when Fergie was on KIDS INCORPORATED. I used to love that show. Anyhoo, Ludacris' rhyme on this is a bit weak but I will give him some slack.
