That song was the jam! Still is! music

"Love Hurts.
Your lies, they cut me.
Now your words don't mean a thing.
I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..."

Growing up in the ghetto
Hanging out on corners
Singing with the fellas..."

I actually liked Busta Rhymes take on this track. Of course Ricky's version is the shiz-nit.

I saw him live in 2002, he wasn't as explosive as some of the footage I've seen him in back in the'80s; but he still put on a damn good show.

'So he comes in there, and I said "Look bitch I'm Rick James"; Enjoy Yo'self'

This has been a summertime staple for me for years, but not until this decade.
