Well- not only did I see this on VH1 Classic the other day, but also heard it on XM yesterday at work---and impressed all the girls with my perfect, lyrically correct, attitude riddled performance! I impressed even myself with my memory of these oldie, but goodie lyrics!
One of the most important aspects of this song is my penchant for coming up with a funny catchphrase to refer to people as. Lately, it's been "Lady" (from me telling all the mannequins to "Lay Lady Lay" when we had to re-dress them. Oh- don't ask)
I was 19 when this song came out and I loved this album and adored this song, and, for some reason took to calling everyone in my life "SUCKA" (note the Sucka catch at the start of the song)
Everyone was 'sucka'. My boyfriend, my mom, my boss, friends, everybody! It actually became a humorous problem when I continually called my boss Al 'sucka' at work. hahaha
Anyway- here's to the superfly fresh late 80's Brooklyn Rap girls!!
About Me
- *TRENNY*
- I'm Trenny and my philosophy is rather simple-I believe there are only 2 forces in this world, Love or Fear. My goal is to try to see things through the eyes of love, but I am fallible and do not always succeed. My professional career at the moment is that of a fashion stylist in New York,but my interests are varied. This blog is the like a blog ‘magazine/newspaper/journal', where I’ve combined all the elements of things that I love to learn through those mediums myself. Some life journaling, lots of music. A little health, natural product talk and recipe sharing. Random musings on life experiences, a little style, art and humour. Environment issues too as nature is our greatest gift. I hope it teaches you something, makes you laugh, or gets you interested in something different. If it fires you up,I welcome learning all different points of view. I hope that what I share, including my mistakes, encourages you. *In the end, I believe we are all each other's teachers, so whatever you might be inspired to say/share with me through this blog- good and bad- I fully welcome it. I learn just as much from you. Happiness and Love xoxo TrennyLynn - trennylynn@gmail.com
