Tesouro/Lixo: Wyclef feat. Lupe Fiasco - Fast Car and Plies feat. Neyo - Bust It Baby Pt. 2

Wyclef Jean feat. Lupe Fiasco - Fast Car remix


I wasn't a huge fan of Wyclef's comeback single, "Sweetest Girl (Dollar Bill)," which found the former-Fugees star waxing poetic about the plight of strippers and prostitutes. But this song "Fast Car" featuring Lupe Fiasco is pure head-bobbin' goodness. He incorporates that familiar lick from the Fugees' smash cover of Roberta Fleck's "Killing Me Softly" and launches into an anthem about life and the journey it takes us all on. What? You mean we get to hear a song that isn't about gettin' silly or shakin' your ass? Wow. Imagine that. Lupe brings his usual fire and turns the dial up even further with his poetic wit and intensity. It's a shame this song isn't getting more play.

Plies feat. Neyo - Bust It Baby Pt. 2


Neyo should be ashamed of himself. Why is he promoting illiteracy? Plies is clearly in a tense struggle with the English language and I've got to tell you, the English language is definitely losing this one. Plies turns words like "number" into "nimber," "something" becomes "sommin'" and so on and so forth. On top of that, to add insult to injury, the song samples the Janet Jackson classic "Come Back to Me." Damita doesn't deserve to have her music defiled like this, y'all. Speaking of defilement, Plies announces in the song that he is going to refer to his "boo" by the nickname "Wet-Wet." I don't know about y'all, but that doesn't sound like a nice pet name at all. He might as well call her swamp pussy. Ladies, why aren't you offended yet? This aural diarrhea should be shut down for the crap that it is. Instead, it's riding its way to the top of the charts.
