Oh that's a Missy Elliot song

Not even gonna click on that link (sorry, Cinnie ) but for some reason his made me think of a song I heard in the club. "P*ssy don't fail me now, I'm 'bout to turn this n&gga out", or some garbage like that. The women in the club were dancing their little hearts out with the most determined looks on their faces.

Not even gonna click on that link (sorry, Cinnie )

what I think is ultimately sad about this song is the self-exploitation element of it. As blacks, I think we spend so much energy harping on our legacy of victimization, while choosing to gloss over the fact that we're our own pimps for everyone else's gain/amusement

That's stank. How do they know where folks have been when they do that?

It's separated where I live. Strip clubs are so expensive, the ONLY thing you might be able to get is a breast in your face, but not until you've invested in a massive bar bill. Otherwise, we have legal prostitution here and women of the evening are required to have monthly physicals and meet monthly mandates for health insurance requirements, otherwise, they can't sell their wares. It seems to me that's kinda like putting your penis on a crap table to randomly be with someone who you don't know where they've been...but whatever...

Looks like Shit-Hop and R&B has hit a new low.

Apparently it's a pretty popular tune in the dirty south. It's kinda hard to take these sentiments seriously though.

As embarrassing as this song is, unfortunately there is some truth
to this song. Most guys aren't going to strip clubs just to hang out
with the boys. They going to rub on something something or try to tap
something after the club. Just the truth.

Well I must apologize to those of you who I offended by bringing this to your attention. I'll resume to bringing to your attention videos that I prefer by groups like Modern English and Kajagoogoo.

We have people in our comunity that thrive on this shit. At what point do you just write them off.

IMO, you NEVER write them off..they are a part of us...thats what I disagree wtih Cosby on..he makes a distinction between "us"(himself and those who have made it) and "them"(those who he deem to need help). I feel that its an inclusive thing...we are all a part of each other..there's no separation. The easiest and most evasive thing to do is to write folks off..lets try to teach them and create an atmosphere to help them come into the knowledge and understanding of themselves....
