Walk It Out...a brief observation
I know I haven't posted anything in awhile...but I just need to jot this down before I forget...
The latest "hot song" on Urban Radio is a joint called "Walk It Out" by UNK (pronounced like it sounds and no it's not an acronym). And one of my all time favorite emcees Andre 3000 of Outkast appears on the track.
I can share with you all that it is with great dissapointment that Andre appears on this track...however, his verse speaks VOLUMES to where he is as an emcee.
His verse speaks directly to what me and J. Moore refer to as "The Laffy Taffy" generation talking about how they wear their long white tees and their infinite love for expensive cars Sidebar: I think we all go through wanting the "expensive cars" phase sometime in our lives but I digress .
However, Andre's flow is so basic that it's slow (like the Laffy Taffy Generation likes it) but it's distinct so that the golden and silver age eras of Hip Hop fans (like myself) can appreciate what he's talking about. Then he finishes out going very basic by saying "I walk it out; I walk it out; I walk it out; I walk it out; I walk it out...."
My serrogate brother Kendall (if you remember him from eariler blogs) loves this verse...but doesn't realize he's being talked about in the verse. gotta love it!
I know, sorry this was so short...but I gotta get out of this writer's block funk (that's what football & golf do the right side of my brain LOL)
Still wondering why Kid Rock & Pam Anderson even got married,

P.S. If you haven't done so already, check out Andre 3000's new cartoon "Class of 3000" on Cartoon Network. It's apparent Andre has 100% creative control, and the show is very well written
