Instead of treated, we get tricked…

instead of kisses, we get kicked! its a hard knock life!

I absolutely loved this song when it came out, and the video. Of course I’m an Annie fan also so I dig the sample. random fact about me: I love musicals–makes sense though, doesn’t it? lol

some more throwback thursday jams for you:

This is one of my favorite hip hop songs ever. I know I like a lot of songs and artists but this song  is full of nostalgia and I still know all the words…

and one of my favorite Puff Daddy remixes “looking at my rolie its about that time…” “baby who that be? oh thats just Puff Daddy”. gotta love it, and the BIG sample!

and with Weezy going to jail, how approps is the Hot Boyz remix. Back when he was still somewhat attractive. I actually randomly skipped to the Jay-Z remix of this song, and then this one came up a few skips later. I prefer the Hot Boyz remix, actually. 400 Degreez was one of my favorite CDs my freshman yr of college. Classic Juve. I never thought Jay fit on that Ha track but I do like his line “big guns that go brrrattt brrrat brrrat!” LOL

and lastly this one takes me back back to undergrad. “heads high! kill em with the no!” this would be the moment I bust out the heel/toe if I could do it! LOL #memories!!

Hot Like Fire

You’re hotter than summer Day, in California.
Ya got me meltin like a sundae, and I want ya.
I know you’ve been wait-you’ve been waitin a long time for me.
But if you wait a little while longer this is how it’ll be….

Oh it’s gonna be, hot like fire….
(I’m gonna take you) take you higher

you cant resist, (one day)

kiss, kiss, and kiss and kiss and kiss…

its a heat wave!!!! I remember I blogged about the rain once, but now I’m here to talk about the heat…..

not much to say but I’m OD’ing on smoothies, milkshakes and of course h2o trying to keep cool! hope you are doing the same!!!

check out some of my favorite songs with the “heat”:

This wasn’t my favorite version of the song….I prefer the album cut, but Aaliyah’s my girl. Rest in peace, Baby Girl!

“can I get another shot, this time I’ma make ya hot…”

same crew….down with Missy and Timbo. I loved her debut CD.

Now Missy had a few “hot” songs out, but this is my favorite. still gets regular play–I mean, Nas? Q-Tip? Eve? Lil Mo? I can’t think of a Missy song with so many collabos that’s “hotter”.

Vodpod videos no longer available.

and I can’t speak on being hot without mentioning some faves from the Hot Boyz…

Look at Lil Wayne!!!! awwww.  look at those bird chests. LMAO. and my baby Turk.  Aww that video got me hyped for a lil bit.

“whatcha need boy….I need a hot girl”

ending with some throw back Clipse “hot damn! its a new day…”

looking forward to their new joint too…

If I Aint a Hot Girl…

then what do ya call that?

400 Degreez came on the radio when I was driving home from work today…of course they blended it with some song and I didn’t get to jam as long as I wouldve liked. boo.

THIS WAS MY JAM!!! click the link, do you see my boy BG?! and look at little DeWayne, lol.  This is when he was still attractive. My crush was on Turk, though….

actually the entire CD was my joint, this song, Rich Niggaz (Weezy was my boy back then, he looks so cute), Juvenile on Fire, HA (hot boyz remix), and of course Back Dat Azz Up…..man listen…we were DOWN for the hot boyz for real, lol.

Then I went to youtube and found my Trojan Explosion playing it!!! I’m hype especially since I’m headed to CIAA and I have GOT TO see the Trojan Explosion play at the battle of the bands….got to. My BFF was in the band so I always get hype for them…and of course the best thing about a HBCU football game (and basketball too for that matter, sometimes) is the band!!! and the cheerleders. yep.

apparently this is a popular band songs….lots of marching bands have done it…some of the better ones I listened to were Tuskegee and Delaware State…
