“The Three Faces Of Eve”

Does One Really Have To Have A Valid Reason To Post A Photo Of Lauren London?
I used to believe that any woman who could spit a verse from any song is wifey material. There’s something innately sexy about a female that would blackout when her favorite song came on while she recites every word right alongside me. That’s why ladies like LC, P and H.E.R. could walk up to me, recite “Halftime” and I’m proposing.
As I’ve mentioned in earlier posts, I’ve been doing a fair share of traveling and my “Girl rapping = sexy” law was put to the test.
A couple of months ago, I was in Boston with a slew of New England ladies (including an AKA from Harvard which must be like seeing the Tooth Fairy riding a Unicorn on the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow…but I digress) at some college day event. The mood was real chill and the DJ played some Hip-Hop. “All About The Benjamins” came on and the whole room started rapping along. All the women started spitting the bars word for word — Lox verses, Kim’s verse, of course, and the Biggie verse.
That shit was better than being at a strip club. Watching the laid back delivery, accurate recital, and sheer appreciation for the bars.
*Jizz…in…my…pants*
Now, let’s look at the other side of the spectrum. I was at a club in Salisbury, North Carolina and was eyeing this tall Lite-Brite in a lil dress and some red pumps. Then Gucci Mane started blaring through the speakers. And this broad rapped every single word.
Then Pastor Troy’s loud raspy yelps started playing. She rapped that shit, screaming till a lil blue vein started popping out the side of her neck. Soulja Boy- how fucking old is this chick? Shawty Lo. Plies. Suddenly it was like the end of Shallow Hal where he realizes that Gwyneth Paltrow turns into some 800 pound chick before his eyes.
Women, please. I’d rather watch you shop for tampons than see you repeat some ig’nant ass, slurred gibberish at the top of your lungs while displaying a “who farted?” grit on your once respectable mug. And another thing, if the song requires you to ball your hand into a fist and smack it against your other palm to the beat, you should probably sit that song out. Take a powder. Get a drink or something. That shit ain’t sexy. Just letting you know. And if a dude thinks it is, chances are he thinks marital fistfights are endearing and he prolly uses “Wet-Wet” as a pet name.
If you wanna get David D.’s attention, ladies (I know you’re out there…*licks pointer and pinky fingers and rubs them against eyebrows*), listen to Illmatic. Learn the fuck outta some Three Stacks. And put some Common in heavy rotation.
You may wanna be well-versed in some Trina too- not to recite, but to take a few pointers-but that’s another issue.

lol @ “Wet-Wet”
it’s an interpolation of these two pics ?
OR u just a psychopathe…
(to put this beautiful oww damn lady gal and this monster munch of balzen!).
That dimple gets me everytime lol.
Been an LL fan since “ATL”.
And yeah, there’s something about a chick who’s into music as much as I am that’s a complete turn on.
“Then Pastor Troy’s loud raspy yelps started playing. She rapped that shit, screaming till a lil blue vein started popping out the side of her neck. Soulja Boy- how fucking old is this chick?

LMFAO!
Oh, and Lauren London could get it, fo sho.
Salisbury, NC??? What happened you made a wrong turn and missed Charlotte?

Agreed. I love a thick yella or a roun’ brown in the Range flowin’ AZ verse in Life’s a Bitch. So impressed I married her dreadlock rockin T&A. But for 5 years straight Anita Baker, MJB, and Patti LaBelle. Where was that kindred spirit who loved illmatic and felt ho happy jackie was a metaphor. I had to let her go vowing not to be fooled again my new thick yella is from cali and been enjoying that foriegn exchange wit me if she act right and learn the fox verse to “Watch dem niggas” I might make her my wife. Real talk sorta.
NewNew.
She got some nice teeth. And a regular sized forehead. And dimples. All pluses in my book.
^ no disrespect to Estelle…but I might have to becom “Lauren’s Teef”
I’m a sucker for girls with good taste in hip-hop. But I mean, it goes beyond that, I just find I can vibe with em a lot better and relate on another level…sadly, I’ve only met a few like that. But I’m glad you found some in Boston…at least I know they’re here haha
and no, you never need a reason to post Lauren London pics…please do so more ferquently.
Am I the only one left still bangin’ that “Arab Money” cut?
Pure ignorance aside, that shit goes hard.
I conferred with my local Arab delegation….they said they got no problem with the cut, in fact, they broke asses was like “shit we wish were getting that Arab money.”
frequently*
yeah she a lil’ pretty mufuka…lol
D.S. Jr’s mother looks like Lauren L. So, I’m done with chicks that look like that.
as a southern gent i’m gonna have to have to disagree. Apparently you’ve never seen a bad ass chica spit the lyric’s to Pastor Troy’s “Rhonda”. It’s a thing of beauty.
this shit sounds like a lil’ east coast bias here…
I aint thought about “Rhonda” in a long time lol. Fools used to bang the hell out that song.
Plus I got a story about a Rhonda from Omaha lol. I’ll tell it one day
@ gotty.. can’t wait to hear that story
Man….Ladies that know their Hip Hop are…*wipes beads of sweat from brow*
I’m not in a position to speak on them, as I’m spoken for, but suffice it to say: I knew one particular lady who recited La Di Da Di mid conversation….
Swear to goodness, I was sprung for a while.
Girls round my way knew all the words to “Suck It Or Not” and wayne’s verse on “Pop Bottles” at parties. I think it’s kinda funny when chicks recite, verbatim mind you, “vanilla ice cream she said ooooh my fav-o-rite” and “Poor it on the models/shut up bitch swallow” (c) Wayne, without batting an eye.
Then they turn around and say “Eww I don’t do that kind of stuff.” Haha.
I know it makes no sense to feel this way, but I don’t see how knowing Hip-Hop adds to a woman’s attractiveness. Hip-Hop is so manly. It’s like if she could rattle off baseball stats of every player and team, or had a fantasy football team. Just seems sort of… I don’t know. Unfeminine? Maybe I’m doing myself a disservice by saying all this on account of I know way too much about Hip-Hop, can rap way too many verses, quote lyrics on a daily basis and have a mean mindless beatbox snare that is my basic walking music. But I don’t know fellas… someone’s going to have to explain to me how/why this is attractive.
I find it attractive whenever a woman’s conversation breaks out from the norm…fashion, celebrities & the most popular one, themselves. I’m so used to having “conversations” with women who are so vain & vapid, it’s refreshing to meet a women who actually has real interests. Like Diz said…
“But I mean, it goes beyond that, I just find I can vibe with em a lot better and relate on another level…”
And I find that to generally be true myself.
Plus, there’s nothing sexier than a chick quoting some hard shit, like B.I.G. or Mobb Deep. I like my women a lil’ ghetto & nuthin’ says ghetto like a chick reciting “Who Shot Ya” line for line lol.
just moved into an appartment with my girl. first time i have ever lived with women. she got me when i played Mya ft Jay-z “best of me” and she nailed every note.
damn LC you make it seem so homo now..lol
I guess it’s attractive because it’s something outside of the norm. It’s something that we both can relate to. seeing an attractive lady who can quote nas with the best of them is great because that’s something that we both have in common that’s rare. The average casual listener probably wouldn’t be able to spout off some classic true hip-hop but just knowing that a beautiful woman that knows her hip-hop adds an extra layer to her and make her that much more intriguing. It makes me think not only is she beautiful but she’s brings a new feature to the table other than her looks…
Sorry but that sounds like gloating Ms. LC, just take the compliment and hush. Those of us women (including u)who do love Hip Hop and all it’s “manlyness” as well as Football/Basketball/Baseball don’t have to remind people how much, I think that’s attractive and shows through, but that ^ rt there overexposure my dear… We all know you’ve got it and it’s displayed regularly rt here @ TSS if u don’t understand that then yeah fellas ya’ll got work to do. Or maybe that was a ploy for the fellas to make your head even bigger?
hahaha no worries, Micah… I’m not questioning how virile you gorgeous men are. I’m just saying I always thought my love of Hip-Hop was not very sexy. I do get your point though… it’s connecting over something. A common interest outside of food and fucking.
I guess for me I’ve always been more attracted to the things about someone that are different than my interests. Like if I’m on a date with someone and he starts talking about a love of contemporary art museums, I’m going to be fascinated and want to know more. If he says he studied and loves pre-war jazz I’m going to be intrigued. But if he’s like “Maaaan, listen. Here are my Top 10 Hip-Hop albums, blase blah…” I’m going to have a good time debating it with him, but I’m not really attracted to that, you know? It’s like talking to a male version of myself. And I bore myself hahaha… shit feels narcissistic, feel me?
Bull, I see where you think I was going with that… but I truly, honestly, didn’t understand where the attraction was. I know everyone here knows I follow the music… wasn’t trying to gloat. Sorry if it came off that way. My bad.
All depends on what the music is….
Too much Common-esque stuff (circa Be/Finding Forever…prolly stuck up or high-falutin’…
Too much Mobb Deep/your region’s ig’nint shit… prolly got red eyes and purple lips from smoking too much, and too often a body built by Dorito’s and munchie food…
Knuck If You Buck chicks…. Young and/or Jobless….
No.Can.Do.
*begins search for the AKA from Harvard mentioned in the post*
east coast bias? im from mississippi, homie
LC,
it’s about an poential connectiveness that’s always just a few breathes away. it’s the call hungering for a response.
maybe we give too much weight to hiphop… too much emphasis to sunday football… too much hype to music… but there’s a potential bond that’s there when you meet somebody that you clique with like that.
it’s the inside joke just got told; it’s the “you had to be there”. it’s rockin’ the same outfits minus twin day in high school… it’s the beats to the rhyme… it’s a dude yellin’ aaayo and the whole crowd goin’ aaaiiight.
because hiphop is so “manly”, so much about men (of color, specifically) yelling out and exploring their sense of humanity/art, cultural unity/social disfunction, etc. there’s just an added layer of dopeness when a sistah or a woman of any color, truly “gets it” enough to be right there with ‘em.
now do you “get it” just because your Rahzel’s nicer than mine? do you get it because you said “record people are shady” right after i said “industry rule 4080″?
i dunno. maybe, maybe not…
but it’s about the possibility that you might. it’s that i might not have to explain everything i’m feeling with some long, stammer-filled, awkward dissertation… that i can just look at you, take my headphones off, put ‘em on your head, and as CL’s spittin’ “they reminiscence over you,” you know that i’m missing one of my guys or when i hear you bumpin’ some mary j, i can take an educated guess as to where you’re at at that moment.
none of this is guaranteed, but it’s more possible under these circumstances than not.
“we” be to rap what key be to lock, as a man once said. potential connectivity is what we all crave.
Apparently you’ve never seen a bad ass chica spit the lyric’s to Pastor Troy’s “Rhonda”. It’s a thing of beauty.
======================================================
Sure it is micAh! She ask you are we cuttin’ afterwards?
But no amount of Hip-Hop knowledge is gonna make an ug-mug anymore appealing lol. I don’t care if she knows “Tical” frontwards & backwards, she’s got to have a modicum of physical beauty for me to wanna kick it with her like that.
lol @AMP…
in short, it ain’t your beauty, it’s your….
TC…
i’m wit ya there. sorta.
Honey ain’t gotta be rockin’ doorknockers, crackin’ doublemint and spittin’ Pastor Troy… but if she down enough to know why she don’t like P-Troy, that’s just as good to me.
CAN be a decent barometer of where the female’s head is at.
Too much Mobb Deep/your region’s ig’nint shit… prolly got red eyes and purple lips from smoking too much, and too often a body built by Dorito’s and munchie food…
==========================
Nah Brutha. Come to Brooklyn. I’ll introduce you to a couple of dimes that are damn near as thorough as some of the homies lol. And for the record, chicks that smoke weed are not sexy at all. I love to puff as much as the next cat, but lips that touch blunts’ll never touch mine. It’s a double standard but so what. You try kissing a chick who’s breath smells like an ashtray. Ain’t nuthin sexy bout that lol.
hahahaha “ug-mug.” I like that. It’s replacing “fugly” in my bag of tricks.
*swipe*
do you get it because you said “record people are shady” right after i said “industry rule 4080??
i dunno. maybe, maybe not…
but it’s about the possibility that you might.
===================================
yesss. I just typed a hefty response to LC, but Canseco, you just said everything better than I did. so co-sign everything you said lol
I know a few too, Amp, don’t get me wrong…just broadly generalizing….
Perhaps Mobb was a bad example, because Mobb has classics, and I’d almost expect a chick I’m w/ to know Shook Ones or sumn….if she knows Jim Jones last album front to back, side to side, I think I’d be concerned.
BUT on average I’d be willing to bet that generalization ain’t that far off base.
lol @ the “double standard” btw… I agree
I’m witcha OED.
That’s a dope Gravy by the way. Darkseid’s ill!
Thank you, sir. Indeed.
I’m with LC, I like people with opposite interests and tastes. I don’t give a fuck if a chick can spit a Twista verse on beat, expose me to some degree of new shit. As long as homegirl respects my love for hiphop, I dont care if she hates it and can’t even recite “Rappers’ Delight”.
“Catch me fuckin’ with a chick that can’t stand rap” - Havoc (Mobb Deep)
Generally, I just assume that all girls have shitty taste in music. If they didn’t, then how the fuck does Plies still have a career? That said, I try not to let the music thing bother me, but it’s so much better when a woman know what’s up. I don’t need her reciting verses and shit, I just need her to have some knowledge and respect for the game.
Put it this way, I knew my last fling was gonna be done the minute I realized she was 23 and confused when I bumped cuts off “Doggystyle and The Chronic.” Not the deep album cuts, just singles. Blank look.
“…That’s why ladies like LC, P and H.E.R. could walk up to me, recite “Halftime” and I’m proposing - THAT SHE TAKE HER STUPID RAPPING IDIOT ASS TO THE FUCKING LIBRARY AND LEARN SOMETHING HALFWAY INTELLIGENT
Honestly its bad enough that I have a head full of 20 years worth of stupid rap lyrics i will never be rid of while i cant remember / dont know anything about the project for the new american century or the foundation of the western political system, the origins of the boxer rebellion in china, the human rights abuses of pinochet, the rate of extinction of undiscovered marine species in the amazon river etc etc
give me a woman that knows something DIFFERENT to me any day.
If I wanted to make love to an irrellevant rap nerd i’d be posted up at the smoking section 24/7
FFFFFuuck THAT.
(commence internet rap-nerd herd hate mentality geekness starting from now…)
@ Fred: True, harsh, but true.
Fred, I’m not going to hate on you because everyone is entitled to their opinion, and you somewhat agreed with me in a desire to meet someone who has different tastes and interests.
But I will say, H.E.R. , P and myself are not idiots in the slightest. Well, THEY aren’t idiots. I’ve never claimed to be excessively intelligent… but I DO have my M.A. from a top tier university… so I HAVE, in fact, spent a lot of time in libraries studying myriad subjects and writing theses. So… yeah… unless you are a Rhodes Scholar, your library argument is moot around here.
Pardon moi, monseiur. I will endeavour to refrain from such brutish and obfusticating remarks in regards to such distinguished ladies as yourself.
In closing, I fear I have offended the delicate petals of your sensitivity. I shall remove myself to the servants quarters with other such common folk as myself, and take care to give myself forty lashes with my masters boot leather, and never mind the thruppence and ha’penny!
Your humble servant,
Motherfucking Fred
commence internet rap-nerd herd hate mentality geekness starting from now…=============================
I’m not hating cause of your opinion, but because you felt you had to dis LC, P & H.E.R. to do it. For someone who claims to be seeking enlightenment, you come off as a douche bag. A pretentious one at that.
Jesus christ, again with the ‘Her Majestys English’. What did i stumble into an Eton Boys College debating class without my scholars cap ironed at the corners just-so?
Man I dont give a flying fuck what you think you little crackhead. This is the fucking internet and I’ll say whatever the goddam fucking shit I want to say.
Suck it.
^ Eat a “Cock”.
dope post david
haha @ “if the song requires you to ball your hand into a fist and smack it against your other palm to the beat”
this takes me back to highschool when 50 was dropping dope mixtapes and dipset was vibin, i appreciated that type of music and thought it was dope (then) so i’d know the lyrics but i would never react to the music, lol it’s not cute to bop to that type of music anywhere or any time and i used to try to tell my friends that, like please. stop. atleast while you’re with me lol
same thing now, wayne might kick something that’s dope “18g’s made the chicken cross the street” but i’m not gonna be out performing these records in place, it’s just not attractive or appealing that i take a listen to that type of music (which i try not to)
now..
conscious hip hop i have no problem being proud to recite in public, or a legend like jay, big, 3000, iller than an aids patient Nas thats a different story :)
it happens quite often (living in NC) that women embarrass themselves(without probably knowing) reacting to bad music that has a catchy instrumental, hook and dance
The fact that you went to Salisbury made me *smh* in the first place. I’m not surprised..you should have went to Da Ville..Fayetteville, that is.
If the site offended me THAT much I would probably just log off…
Don’t think I’d blame hip-hop for any of my educational shortcomings either…
I think simply unplugging the radio might have been a better option.
Pastor Troy compared to Soulja Boy, Shawty Lo and Plies, come on man. Pastor Troy was on Lyricist Lounge 2, been indie since I was 13, been ad libbing like crazy before Lil John, T.I. or Jeezy. I know it’s nitpicky but comparing him to those other jokers is a hard pill for me to swallow. On the flip I would love to see a lady looking like New New going line for line with anything from Face Off or Pastor Troy for President, that means I probably met my soulmate.
“…That’s why ladies like LC, P and H.E.R. could walk up to me, recite “Halftime” and I’m proposing - THAT SHE TAKE HER STUPID RAPPING IDIOT ASS TO THE FUCKING LIBRARY AND LEARN SOMETHING HALFWAY INTELLIGENT”
Alright point taken. But a smart woman < a smart woman that also can rap “Halftime” (or even if she just knew the second verse). Can we at least agree on that?
interesting topic.
I’d just like to say Fred is an asshole.
Even “internet rap-nerds who ck tss 24/7″ have education, cuture, LIVES, families and other interests outside of hip-hop. You show your age, maturity & ignorance in your response to Amp. Grow up, respond when u get there.
That said, yeah there is a sort of attraction at a lady reciting certain lyrics. But as said, its more of a understanding and respect, the connection that you both understand and you don’t have to explain. OF COURSE, you would want a well rounded women though, as I think this idiot was trying to say.
Yeah allow me to be all-knowing ig’nant Hip-Hop connoisseur who flunked the 7th grade only to max out my potential at the local BK Lounge.
Fucca Fred.
Ahhhh yes….
Fred = Frank
It all makes sense now. I knew the hate came from somewhere familiar. It was so distinct.
lol @ the Rancor Monster pic
I see chicks that look like The Rancor Monster on a weekly, almost daily, basis
*sprays “Unforgivable” on Fred*
*walks away*
*throws show at Fred*
^ shoe
Fred is an attention whore who likes to say wild shit online so people will respond to it.
Well Fred…mission accomplished lol!
A clip from an episode of Intervention that was so crazy it was banned. Peep…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5Pqo2dWsdM
True story:
The year was 2002.It was my senior year of high school, and we had class trip to Great Adventures in the evening. It was either April or May but either way I was inadequately dressed to face the below 40 degree weather that night stunting in a Girbaud Jean Jacket and a Philly’s jersey (before the death of the jersey) . I spent the majority of the night riding the coasters, eating cotton candy and funnel cake with extra powdered sugar with my lady at the time. She was a cool, mellow, all around calm chick and I gravitated towards her because of her laid back demeanor. Being that it was one of those High School ‘Grad Night’ events for seniors in the tristate, they naturally provided entertainment for the evening in the form of hip hop. They had some random ass DJ spinning records consisting of whatever was on the Hot 97 playlist at the time. To get to the point, “Roc the Mic” by Beans & Free came on. Whilst I knew the record word for word I would have never expected shorty by my side to ‘take off her cool’ and join me in reciting the lyrics “..It’s Mack-daddy-young scrappy, No he ain’t the O.G. gangsta. Yes I is!” In that moment, our relationship meant so much more. It led to us being more open and true to self around each other. And as all matters of the heart eventually culminate, Kanye West made ‘808’s & Heartbreak’.

I definitely am the kinda girl who gets lost in song and ends up spitting lines but I’m usually in the club and drunk dialing my hip-hop head friend and leaving everyone else because they can’t keep up and I get madd… of course that was months ago, hehe, I’m doing my grown and sexy now… staying at home watching “on demand”…. aaaaahhhh, yes, those were the good ol’days! (I prefer to spit UGK diamonds and wood, Jay da’evils, the watcher, Oh, David Banner my shawty, fire falling, YoungBloodz mind on my money… I AM from the south tho :)
