foreign languages There was a funky (bootleg) song P did year's ago in which there was a little German (or maybe it was Dutch or Flemish...), does anyone know what that song was? I had it on a tape cassette and have since tossed all such archaic devices now that we've entered the new iPod! generation.
I love the way P injects a little foreign culture into his lyrics and keeps things from being so ghettoized. Te Amo Corazon was probably the weakest example; there were a lot of better snipets of spanish infusion during the Mayte years (P Control, Exodus, Come On (NewPower soul mix), etc.). Italian at the end of "What Do You Want Me 2 Do?". The classic examples were the French flavors on Parade. Of course, nowadays, more people do it in attempt to add freshness to their lame music, but P did it best when a lot of black pop musicians just pandered to African American culture and steryotypes. Has he ever used Asian or Middle Esatern languages in his songs? | |

There are tons of other examples. " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |
