This is currently #7 on ITunes! I dont know if a topic has already been posted for this song. Does anyone know of an adds date for this single? I am feeling this song for some reason. FYI this is a remake of the Dr. Dre album track of the same name.

I'm starting to like this now, on a novelty level of course.

Why is this in the pop forum? It's not like it would fit in any better in the Rhythmic forum or the Hot AC forum.  |

Maybe they wouldn't and see who'd have the courage to play the track.

[bleep] ain't [bleep]
[bleep] ain't [bleep]
[bleep] ain't [bleep] but [bleep] and tricks
[bleep] on these [bleep] and [bleep] the [bleep]
Get the [bleep] out after you're done
And I hops in my ride to make a quick run
I used to know a [bleep] named Eric Wright
We used to roll around and [bleep] the [bleep] at night
Tighter than a mutha[bleep] gangster beats
And we was ballin' on the mutha[bleep] Compton streets
Peep that [bleep] got deep and it was on
Number one song after number one song
Long as my mutha[bleep] pockets was fat
I didn't give a [bleep] where the [bleep] was at
But she was hangin' with a white [bleep] doin' the [bleep] she do
[bleep] on his [bleep] just to get a buck or two
And the ends that she got meant nothin'
Now she's suin' cuz the [bleep] she be doin' ain't [bleep]
[bleep] can't hang with the streets
She found herself short
Now she's takin' me to court
It's real conversation for your ass
I once had a [bleep] named Mandy May
I used to be up in them guts like everyday
The [bleep] was the bomb, had a [bleep] on [bleep]
I was in love like a mutha[bleep] [bleep] the [bleep]
The homies used to tell me that she wasn't no good
But I'm the maniac in black, Mr. Snoop Eastwood
So I figure [bleep] wouldn't trip with mine
Guess what? Got gaffled by one time
I'm back in the mutha[bleep] county jail
6 months on my chest, now it's time to bail
I gets released on a hot sunny day
My [bleep] D.O.C. and my homey Dr. Dre
Scooped in a coupe, Snoop we got the news
Your girl was trickin' while you was draped in your county blues
I ain't been out a second
And already gotta do some mutha[bleep] chin checkin'
Move up the block as we groove down the block
See my girl's house, Dre, pass the [bleep]
Kick in the do', and I look on the flo'
It's my little cousin Daz and he's [bleep] my [bleep]
I uncocked my [bleep]
I'm heart-broke but I'm still loc'ed
Man, [bleep] that [bleep]!
3, 4...
[bleep] ain't [bleep] but [bleep] and tricks
[bleep] on these [bleep] and [bleep] the [bleep]
Get the [bleep] out after you're done
And I hops in my ride to make a quick run
I used to know a [bleep] named Eric Wright
We used to roll around and [bleep] the [bleep] at night
Tight than a mutha[bleep] gangsta beats
And we was ballin' on the mutha[bleep] Compton streets
Peep that [bleep] got deep and it was on
Number one song after number one song
Long as my mutha[bleep] pockets was fat
I didn't give a [bleep] where the [bleep] was at
But she was hangin' with a white [bleep] doin' the [bleep] she do
[bleep] on his [bleep] just to get a buck or two
And the ends that she got meant nothin'
Now she's suing cuz the [bleep] she be doin' ain't [bleep]
[bleep] can't hang with the streets
She found herself short
Now she's takin' me to court
That's some real conversation for your ass
[bleep] can't hang with the streets
[bleep] can't hang with the streets
[bleep] can't hang with the streets
[bleep] can't hang with the streets
???
Seriously though, this is great, because it's almost diametrically opposite to the genre Ben usually does, but he effortlessly makes it sound like one of his own songs.

Now that the song has made the Hot 100, I guess this should go into the Alternative forum (all 24 of this song's Mediabase-monitored spins are on the Sirius Alternative station).

This I gotta hear. Ben Folds can be so good as satirical stuff like this.

If you like this song, check out Dynamite Hack - Boys in the Hood (snoop cover?). LOL

Actually, that one's an Easy-E cover.
I thought that one was kinda bland, but really enjoy Ben's version of this classic.

It's actually Eazy-E and the 10th anniversary of his death is tomorrow.
Yeah, anyone can make a straight-faced acoustic version of a song. Dynamite Hack killed their career before it even started. Their debut single was a novelty cover.
I like Ben Folds' cover okay, but in general, I don't care much for him anymore. It's one thing to be a smartass, but it's another to be a nerdy smartass.

One thing hasn't been mentioned: This song isn't even a single.
"Landed", however, is the first single from Songs for Silverman. It's more representative of how Ben is typically like.
"Rockin' the Suburbs" was satirical, and it doesn't matter when you're nerdy if you're right; however, that's not really the brand of what the album was, in spite naming the album after that song. But I think it's good on its own right; you can't go wrong with someone totally talented musically and lyrically to me.
