- sillygato, on 09/19/2008, -0/+38LMAO. So this means rappers will start singing about a Ford Focus if Ford pays them enough? This I'd like to see!
- ohnoerino, on 09/19/2008, -1/+32Yo Yo Yo, I'd like to give a shout out to the Kool-Aid Man ya'll.
- JivePode, on 09/20/2008, -4/+22***** sell-outs.
- relaxeder, on 04/17/2009, -1/+18Why do you think they flash T-Mobile and Nokia phones in every rap video?
Product placement is such a prostitution of an artist's creative talent and a bastardization of music altogether, its disgusting. - deathsquadx, on 09/20/2008, -0/+15"Chinese food makes me sick"
Is that it? - inactive, on 09/19/2008, -0/+13Oh Yeah!!!
- TexasShiv, on 09/20/2008, -0/+12Jay-Z must be seriously bank rolling from this
- samoan27, on 09/19/2008, -0/+12"I like girls that wear Abercrombe & Fitch"
That song was popular for only one reason. - X9001, on 09/20/2008, -0/+11LETS ALL CONFORM TO NONCONFORMITY!

so i roll up to the club...
ladies love to dance, but-
i don't make romance on the dance floor like a th-uh-ug

i'm lost and feeling hopeless, but-
i've got gps in my ford FOH-Uh-KISSS.....
(chorus:)
oh, baby kiss me in my ford focus!
it comes pre-equipped with luxury features...
oh, baby gerald my f-uh-ord in my focus!
you don't have to play with my balls 'cus i've got a seat heee-uh-ter
[/r kelly] - badwithcomputer, on 09/20/2008, -0/+9if i was a rapper i would shamelessly namedrop video game developers, my favorite living directors and all car companies with a vehicle on the road that hits 60 in under 5 seconds. maybe give a shoutout to medical marijuana dispensaries in the outro just so i have all my bases covered.
- bratterscain, on 09/20/2008, -1/+10You may be indifferent to a view point I may have but if I give you something you want, eg, friendship, lots of money, a job, a hot girl, etc, you will be more accepting of me and my views. That's the way life is. Everything is a trade. If you think you're above it, you're not. You're in the soup also.
I'll be dugg down for people not liking that and wanting to admit it, but you know it's true. There's lots of hypocrisy among not just corporations and big shots, but among the financially lesser crowd. It's not what I want to hear being in that crowd, but it's the truth and speech likes to set itself free. - psaffire, on 09/20/2008, -1/+10If you listen to country, you deserve what you get.
- inactive, on 09/20/2008, -0/+8The word "artist" is incorrectly used here. unless you call someone who paints by numbers an artist as well.
- inactive, on 09/20/2008, -3/+11Apple just buys the artist's soul
- GuitarHeroDenn, on 09/20/2008, -0/+7I go “no mom I'm not on drugs. I'm ok, I'm just thinking, you know? Why don't you get me a Pepsi?” She goes “No! You're on drugs!” I go “mom, I'm ok. I'm just thinking.” She goes “No! You're not thinking, you're on drugs! Normal people don't be acting that way!” I go “mom, just get me a Pepsi! Please, all I want is a Pepsi!” And she wouldn't give it to me! All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me! Just a Pepsi!
- krabat, on 09/20/2008, -0/+7Jesus man. Couldn't you have at least gotten part of it right?
- HurricaneDitka1, on 09/20/2008, -0/+7Every time I think about how a Wrigley's advertisement made it to the top of the charts, disguised as a catchy single, it makes me want to steal a truck full of doublemint gum and crash it into Chris Brown's house.
- aspec, on 09/20/2008, -1/+7If you were willing to pay me a half a million dollars to put the words "Ford Focus" in my single, and drive one in my video, you're damned right in assuming that I'm going to do it.
- DNABeast, on 09/20/2008, -0/+6"Ah had a girl bu' she let me down,
Now I'm packin' up ma Prius an a gittin' outa town"
Not quite the same feel. - chickenloco, on 09/20/2008, -0/+6McDonalds pays rappers $5 each time a song with the word "Big Mac" is played on the radio
http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1499138/20050328/ ... - darkwing81, on 09/20/2008, -0/+6the industry maybe but there are still alot of really good underground/indie musicians making really good music for the love of music
- moolcool, on 09/20/2008, -0/+6Bank Rolling at Bank of America. And what better way to wind down from some heavy banking then an ice cold coke.
- transeth, on 09/19/2008, -0/+5Giiiveeee MEEEE TWOOOO PURRRRR
- chickenloco, on 09/20/2008, -0/+5"Yo, rollin' in my prius with my 20 in rims..."
- barfooz, on 09/20/2008, -0/+5Uh, wouldn't this be the very definition of capitalism? Making profit on everything?
- rojano17, on 09/20/2008, -0/+5So I can get to stompin in my air force ones!
- artseejodee, on 09/19/2008, -0/+5It's all over country music... I love how so many artists record different versions promoting the local radio stations, local sports teams, etc...
That's in addition to the "pack up my Ford truck", and "take a Chevy". The list goes on. It gets really annoying to listen to those songs once you identify them! - GoKings, on 09/20/2008, -0/+5"How Companies Pay Artists to Include Brands in Lyrics"
"Here's $50,000... mention Chevy Impala in your song." -end - albel65, on 09/20/2008, -0/+4Whoa! Read that as, "I go 'OM NOM I'm not on drugs...'"
- JCougar, on 09/20/2008, -0/+4Hornet and sonnet rhyme?
- tonman605, on 09/20/2008, -0/+4The sad part is that it's true. I used to work at a liquor store and Ciroc vodka just wouldn't sell for a darn for a long time until all the sudden P'diddy is doing their commercial and we couldn't order the ***** fast enough. And I swear if i heard "the goose gets 'em loose" one more darn time i was gonna kill someone.
- Stavrosian, on 09/20/2008, -0/+4I thought it was pretty funny when the president of Cristal spoke out about how he was annoyed at people like Jay-Z continuing to mention their product, since it cheapened their brand and nobody who could afford it who wasn't a rapper wanted to drink it. Be careful what you brand, music business.
- Lunarsight, on 09/20/2008, -0/+4Connie - Some will do that. Other artists will keep their day jobs and make the music they want to make.
- MacMan88, on 09/20/2008, -1/+4but girls that wear Abercombie & Fitch are hot...
(unfortunately, they're mostly egotistical spoiled bitches) - HurricaneDitka1, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3Hyundai rhymes almost as well as Escalade
- username7410, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3I don't think it's possible for the Pussy Cat Dolls to sell out.
- HurricaneDitka1, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3Hip Hop Marmalade spic And span,
Met you one summer and it all began
You're the best girl that I ever did see,
The great Larry Bird Jersey 33
When you take a sip you buzz like a hornet
Billy Shakespeare wrote a whole bunch of sonnets
Call me Willy Whistle cause I can't speak baby
Something in your eyes went and drove me crazy
Now I can't forget you and it makes me mad,
Left one day and never came back
Stayed all summer then went back home,
Macauly Culkin wasn't Home Alone
Fell deep in love,but now we ain't speaking
Michael J Fox was Alex P Keaton
When I met you I said my name was Rich
You look like a girl from Abercrombie and Fitch - Me0wmix, on 09/20/2008, -1/+4..not surprising at all.
- zoydberg, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3You know, from the other side, that's kind of annoying
- scoottie, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3with money
- DivisibleByZero, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3See, this is what piracy does. If they can't sell you the music itself, they'll stick ads in it.
- secondfiddle, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3Same as the old boss...
- winmywii, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3haha... I would do it in a heart beat
- LRonaldHubbs, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3If I had a million dollars
We wouldn't have to eat Kraft Dinner
But we would eat Kraft Dinner
Of course we would, we’d just eat more
And buy really expensive ketchups with it
That’s right, all the fanciest ke... dijon ketchups!
Mmmmmm, Mmmm-Hmmm - BigCalhoun, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3Listen to southern rap artists, they espouse a love for Chevorolets and Dodge. Go to the same neighborhoods where these artists are listened to and I guarantee you won't be able to drive half of a block without seeing a Chevy of some kind, Dodge Magnum, or Dodge Charger.
Patron was hardly asked for in most urban clubs a few years ago. Most clubheads didn't know what Grey Goose was even before that. Thanks to various songs in the last year or two, Patron and Grey Goose are probably the most sipped on spirits at any given urban nightclub. - Lunarsight, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3I want to be a non-conformist just like all of my friends.
- crazyoldman, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3Sad, the music industry really is dead.
- bagboyrebel, on 09/20/2008, -0/+3if you only like one track on the albums you listen to you need to find some new music.
- MikeEnIke, on 09/20/2008, -0/+2Lil' Wayne has ridiculously clever lyrics at times, and I don't even like the guy. I just wanted to point that out so you can check out some of them before actually thinking they're ridiculous. Lots of word plays, double meanings, phonetic usage, etc.
