-N.E.R.D Seeing Sounds

Real good cd that blends the typical N.E.R.D sound with rock/rnb/hiphop with amazing production.

Yep, believe it or not there is a music genre that many people like that is called rap. Just because the bubble gum/MTV/thug image gives it a bad name, there is actually good rap out there. so stfu and stick your damn music you like.

Not like they used to. When the game changed from 40's and glocks to backpacks and flip-flops (i.e. slam-poetry), that's when I decided to stop listening.

Eazy-e rapped about flip-flops.

Gotta get drunk and put my flip-flops on before the day begins before my mother start
in about my friends.
