Das Racist have grown on me over the past year. I'm feeling that they could be primed for a tilt at crossover success. The vid for Michael Jackson is pretty much the greatest.

My mother is the OG. She works full-time and cooks and cleans and is always complimented on her classy wardrobe and plans activities for us to spend some quality time as a family. I love her to bits and so for the most part grudgingly put on a less revealing top, wash the dishes, hang out the laundry, or whatever it is she wants me to do.
where is my posted message gone to?
17 hours in labor is enough to earn my respect.
Yo Mama, the one and only Mama. The one who can hug your blues away! Strength, passion and love. Put that on the dance floor!
she bought me into this world and she can take me out of it
Because my mama can dance well to Scissor Sisters music! even when i don't feel like dancing, she always managed to make me dance
Only one thing can remember she said,
You gotta earn all of your respect.
And I don't care what race or what colour or what creed
I say all that shit don't bother me,
Only one thing that you should not forget,
You gotta treat yo mama with respect
