I was out of the loop all summer and just saw this video. No offense to the rappers on it because they are alright but why a song about a dance move that takes about zero % talent to pull off. I mean cmon it would be harder to go out on the dance floor and bob your head or even spin around in circles. Rap and RnB is really starting to show signs of jumping the shark I think
 
Eminem is good in that song, as much as I hate to admit it... both versions suck and I hate Fat Joe more than I hate paying full price for video games.
 
Well, a few years ago there was a worse summer song. I think it was called Summer Girls by girly-man boy band LFO. They suck, the song sucked, and I'm glad I don't see anymore releases from them.

If Fat Joe leans back again, wouldn't he fall down and not be able to get up?
 
Oh yeah, as for Lean Back...There's a remix using the beat and Notorious BIG lyrics. I even think it's an official remix because I heard it on the digital radio that comes with digital cable. That was the tightest and best mix of that song. Otherwise, I can't wait for it to die out.
 
There has been lamer songs, but I agree Fat Joe has just gone downhill. Don Cartegena was a great album, and he did a song another great song before that, but I forget the name. You can really tell how much he slowed and dumbed down his lyrics for the mainstream.
 
i like the remix with mase lil jon and eminem.... eminem is my fav. rapper. mase is back and better than ever IMO... and.... YYYYEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH
 
i thought i was the only one who hated LEAN BACK, god i hate that song, never like fat joe to begin with

Didn't Chapelle do something like that at the VMAs? I don't know, but I heard something about it. Anyways most of the rap songs you hear nowadays are pretty much lame. Though it is entertaining because it's just funny stupid. I mean you can make a song about anything nowadays and then have a catchy beat and it would sell. Lean Back would be like some kind of good parody song like "Lean back, fall back" something like that. The G-Unit thing can be just fun to mock or so but man people at my school can really annoy the crap outta you after saying it so many times.

But I gotta agree that "Who let the dogs out?" was a lame song.. and I am so sure there are even lamer songs out there.. just too lame to remember.

I remember seeing that before lol sucha good laugh when I first saw it too.
 
C'mon guys, be nice.

If you were as fucking huge as Fat Joe, you'd realize that leaning back was the ONLY way you could dance.

Well.....apart from the Truffle Shuffle I s'pose......

There was something similar in the History of Rock and Roll. I saw it about 10 years ago in a music class when some old rocker said "Rap is short for Crap". I still laugh whenever I think about that.
 
seriously guys, I can never have any disrespect for Fat Joe. he's part of a east coast based hip hop crew called DITC (Diggin in the Crates) which have many classic joints. The Late Big L was a part of that group, consisting of a total of 8 members.

Fat Joe follows a formula to sell records, make some crappy ass song as his single for a good album (such as What's love got to do wit it got to do wit it wit it). It works for a lot of good mainstream rap artists to sell platinum without making a crappy album.

also Fat Joe introduced the world to Big Pun, who despite his short career was one of the best emcees of the time.
 
i also hate lean back, but Take me home is 5x worst with the chipmunks voice singing the hook. Bad song Bad Song!! Radio stations don't the the roots, Mos def,. Pisses me off. White-T's is the WORST rap song ever. STUPID SONG!!! WHY!!!

With your choice of avatar MSD I know you must be hating Rap right now not a lot of people putting out intelligent albums like Mos def anymore
 
what u guys think about the game? hes the best outta g-unit, but i dont think he shouldve rolled with them. g unit is getting annoying and they just gonna drag him down, if anyone wanna hear something tight from him download 200 bars.

No it shouldn't. He should be happy. The Roots and Kanye west albums are out. With albums by Mos def, Talib Kweli and common to come out soon, it's gotta be good.
 
Haven't heard this song yet, who's it by? I don't listen to the radio much since I have CDs, but when I do, I listen to the local metal station, since they won't play the same song 3 times in an hour.

I remember when bands use to put actual effort into songs and vids. I remember when R and B groups had actual bands that played instruments (Earth, Wind and Fire anyone?). That's why I love R and B from the 70's more than any other time. The music had so much more feeling. Now rappers sample those same songs to DEATH. Other than perhaps De La Soul, Outkast, Nappy Roots, and The Roots most rap groups today are just plain lazy. They throw together just any old BS and think it will sell. That is why I am very selective about what little rap I still listen too. Most just don't deserve the public's money. People will wise up eventually and stop buying this garbage and demand a better product.
 
The worse song this summer had to be h00bstank's 'The Reason'. Now I don't like the music to begin with, but the song is just terrible(see their performance at the VMAs if you don't believe me). Plus, their sell outs. They used to be a crappy rock band. Now their a crappy emo band.
 
I have to second Mafia's vote for LFO, I can't stand that song, that and Smashmouths cover of I'm a believer, or Sugar Ray and Fly, or sugar Ray again with every morning. I'd go on but I have a 10:00 meeting
 
No one seems to have addressed the real problem with this song, or the current state of Pop-Rap (as I like to call it). Lil' John has fucked up sooooo many songs this summer with the same beat it's rediculous. The Usher song "Yeah" was pretty decent but soon after that EVERY Pop-Rap song had that same fuckin beat! Jesus, talk about recycling! To make things worse, for some reason Lil' John thinks he can take crappy songs like lean back and make it better. This guy needs to crawl back into that dirty south hole he came from.

As far as Hip Hop/Rap is concerned, it's gone WAY downhill. It's image is so diluted with Bling Bling that it's impossible to even respect the art anymore. I'd say the decline began when Pac and Biggie died. They earned their way to the top, not just with a good beat but meaningful lyrics. Rap Artists (except Eminem) who came up after Pac and Biggie died are trying to fill shoes they have no place filling.

One more thing, Mase sucks hairy hemaphrodite ass. He needs to take is "lazy flow" back to church and stay there.

Anyone remember "Steal My Sunshine", that shitty song by that shitty band, hell, I can't even remember their shitty name. Worst summer song ever.

That's actually from futurama, The guy from the 80s who became CEO of planet express. He had been frozen until they could find a cure but then he was so busy being an 80s hotshot asshole that he forgot to cure it.
 
New Kids On The block,had a bunch of hits
Chinese food makes me sick.
And I think it's fly when girls stop by for the summer,for the summer
I like girls that wear Abercrombie and Fitch,
I'd take her if I had one wish,
But she's been gone since that summer..
Since that summer

I really highly doubt that G-unit is dragging him down. Since every groupie doesnt care about the BS that 50 cent has caused in the rap game, they just want to hear G-unit's new shit, which will make him sell records. I do agree that certain parts of G-unit could be going down, but once you hit mainstream you can bounce back a lot easier than if you are a coming up rapper. I think 50 cent is going to either be killed or totally destroyed by all the hate that no one will like him anymore, but Young Buck, Yayo, The Game, and even LLoyd Banks are still pretty strong and will thus keep G-unit alive, besides man, they have Dre, Snoop, Eminem and D-12 , Xzibit, and many other top name rappers and producers on there side to keep G-unit alive, maybe not the indivual rappers but the Group will be around for a while.

On a side note the original Lean Back isnt all that great the remix is the shit.
And for all you Eminem haters that love Tupac, Afari Shakur just signed Eminem to do another Tupac CD, so he must be somewhat decent compared to the rest of the game.

When i lived at home for Birthdays and Christmas my folks would closely follow my list except they would always try to get one thing ti surprise me and it was usually laughable. One year I ended up getting the Nelson tape. I can't remeber the name of it but it had who brought the rain on it what a horrible tape.
