Figured a thread should be made for this as it's getting a decent amount of airplay on Alt. Albeit somewhat suprisingly considering Williams' voice sounds so poppy.

It's surprising that Hayley's name alone is enough to muster up any significant attention on Alternative radio for a mainstream pop-rap song she sings the hook on.

What is its Alternative airplay?
I'm a little less surprised than Nick is, though. I almost expect a run in the lower rungs of the chart now that this is so huge on Pop and Rhythmic.

These guys? Haha. B.o.B. is a rapper. Hayley Williams is the lead singer of Paramore. Hope that helps, Artie. You sound like a grandad, who just doesn't get all this "hip new music"... "Why is the o not capitalized?". Confirmation of the spelling here: www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:gpfqxqtrld0e And also on the album cover if you look carefully. |

Ey? The article clearly reads B.o.B. I suggest you put your monocle on, Ziff.

LMAO! Are you for real?! Seriously?! After all these months... you must be pulling our leg!
EDIT: Actually, you know what? It offends me that YOU, of all people, apparently have a job in radio or in the industry somehow. How can someone like you have your job over pretty much anyone else on this forum. Are you blackmailing someone?

He appears to have deleted all his contributions to save himself from any embarrassment.

It makes me want to throw up that I'd agree with anything Artie said (or later deleted) in this thread, but... I don't know why they'd initial only their first two letters. Yeah. I've seen it everywhere as "B.o.B" (not "B.o.B."). The general practice of this annoys me as well. |

This ought to be a multi-format smash. I'd expect it on Hot AC, Rhythmic and Urban too (w/the Eminem remix of the song).

I just refer to him as B.o.o.b How long have you been a patient of Dr. Marvin's? Bob: Uh...Three or...four days. GMA: Three or four days?? Dr. Leo Marvin: [doing damage control] The book is not really meant to work that quickly, it only worked that quickly with, with Boob. GMA: ...? Leo: [correcting himself] (Bob.) Bob: You can call me Boob. Leo: I don't--No, I don't want to call you... Boob... [nervously smiles at camera]Bob: Even if you did as an accident, it's OK to call me... Leo: [cutting him off and clearly flustered] No, no! I really don't want to call him Boob...Uh, uh, the book isn't made to, you know, work that quickly. [settling back down]Bob: But it did work that way! That's the miracle of Baby Steps. Meanwhile, I find B.o.B to be one of the most refreshing young commercial rappers out there today, along with Lupe Fiasco, Kid Cudi, and Wale. |

I just want to say I had almost completely forgotten about that movie and looking up that quote found me the script which I proceeded to read and now I have a huge smile on my face. All thanks to you. So you've got that going for you. |

All thanks to you. So you've got that going for you. ...If nothing else, huh?  The script I found had the gyst of the movie, but wasn't verbatim at all. And there were so many typos and baffling misspellings, it's like somebody who speaks English as a second language typed it out while listening to the film and didn't bother to stop and get every word. Anyway, that wasn't good enough for me, so I cued up my DVD to the scene and typed it out, myself. I love that movie so much. If I had to guess, I'd figure it's in my Top 20 of all-time. |

She looks awful in that picture though. Have you ever seen a truly sexy candid or self-shot nude photo, though? Could she have tried a little harder to compose the shot? Absolutely. (And as a suggestion for next time, for a girl her size, maybe taking a picture lying down wasn't the best idea. Just sayin'.) |
