Lupe, The Cool, and the trouble with ringtones

You know when you hear a cd for the first time there is always a song that when you hear it gently grabs you by the wrists and begs you hit repeat. and repeat. and repeat. until the words are familiar ABC’s or CBA’s. I have that very obsession “The Coolest” a song on . and I don’t know why. other than the fact that its catch. and Lupe is a lyrical genius. and it uses the n-word like 50 million times. and I told my self that I would stop using but that was before I heard that song. and then I thought to myself what if I could have the chorus shouted proudly from my phone every time i received a call. So I bough it. Oh, how disappointed I was. I would never imagine how much impact the n-word had on that song. like with it missing the song is waaaaaaaaayyyy less cool. It doesn’t have that same swagger that makes you want to put it on replay. It made me think that when people say they don’t listen to the words they only like the beat. they’re fucking liars. I take that back maybe people who study music can separate themselves from the words. the carefully crafted cadence of verbs and adjectives. But I can’t. I know that now. The vulgar and sometimes offensives lyrics are what spark something inside of us that makes you want to turn your car radio up all the way up and sing like no is watching. but you probably don’t have tinted windows so 9 times out of 10 they prob are. and I don’t even have a car. So When I’m walking down the street. and I paid 2.50 for that shit. I can let my phone ring with that rated g ring tone. WHAT A WASTE. THANK YOU AT&T for thinking you know whats best for me. THANK YOU! and before I go here is another music plug. Get Lupe in your life. One of the best decisions you will ever make. I promise!

Looking for un-edited ring-tones,
