Lyrics:
I met so many men and
It's like their all the same
My appetite for lovin'
Is now my hunger pain
And when I'm feelin' sexy
Who's gonna comfort me
My only problem is
Their insecurity
(Tired of bein' alone) Yeah, yeah
(Sick of arguin on the phone) Yeah, yeah
(Are you tellin' all your friends) Yeah, yeah
(That your n***a don't understand) My love
Cause I'm real
(The way you walk, the way you move, the way you talk)
Cause I'm real
(The way you stare, the way you look, your style, your hair)
Cause I'm real
(The way you smile, the way you smell, it drives me wild)
Cause I'm real
And I can't go on without you
Girl, I've been thinkin' bout this relationship
And I wanna know is this as good as it gets
Cause we've been through the worst times and the best times
But it was our time, even if it was part-time
Now they've been lookin' at me, smilin' at me, laughin' like we wasn't happy
But not knowin', ever growin' and we're gettin' married
Hard lovin' and straight thuggin'
Bitch, I ain't doin' this s**t for nuttin'
I'm here to get it poppin', hoppin, let's ride up in the Benz
Hair blowin' in the wind, sun glistenin' off my skin, hey
I'm nasty, heh, you know me
But you still don't f**k with your baby

Yes, there are a lot of unoriginal, "copycats" out there(especially when it comes to white rappers), but there are also more people making music than ever before, and who have access to far better tools to make said music(and make it sound good), people starting younger than ever, people who have access to gear coaching, great producing, etc., and best of all a platform(i.e. the internet/social media) to put their music out on, be heard, receive feedback, etc. I actually think it's freaking incredible how many great songs/artists there are today.

You can hear Ashantis voice perfectly ❤️ we all know this song was originally Hers and not Jlos

[@SoulKidVids]

So much LIFE and SOUL and COLOR in this video. They can't shoot a video like this today if they wanted to. The 90s & Early 2000s was the Golden/Silver age when God was here. Now we live in the Dark Age aka Last Days music isn't the same anymore life period isn't the same anymore. Back in these days life felt like you were in a whole another Dimension like Heaven on Earth. I'm Blessed to have experienced this decade.

[@anayahinton]

Totally agree, they Dnt make em like Dey used 2

[@DaWeirdFreak]

YEAH... that's because of GaGa... this is what happens when fucked up people take over the industry! I remember that area so distinctly, it felt like everybody was chilling together and caring about each others... So far from now where everybody is a selfish evil elf!!

[@DaWeirdFreak]

alexis deminati Nobody back then would have called themselves monsters, with their paws or (whatever the fuck it is) up and proud to be fucked up!

[@ajstimac2489]

You said it, my man! Funny thing is, this was before everybody had the HD TV's and stereos that "bring color & sound to life". Now that this HD format is everywhere & in everything, suddenly things just don't seem as colorful as they used to be... But back in the day, there was life & soul in the music and in the videos just like you said - and thank God we have the ability to look back on and be thankful we experienced that era!

One thing ive learnt is that most people will always love music from their childhood. Noatalgia is crazy. This song is an absolute classic imo. It was better being a child pre-smart phones because we could enjoy the moment, in the moment. Thats something that can never be replaced or repeated again. To the youth of today, have fun and enjoy yourselves in the moment when youre together ! Peace and love to everyone.

I remember right around September 11, Ja Rule was on MTV. That’s what they said. “We got Ja Rule on the phone. Let’s see what Ja’s thoughts are on this tragedy.” Who gives a fuck what Ja Rule thinks at a time like this? This is ridiculous. I don’t want to dance. I’m scared to death. I want some answers that Ja Rule might not have right now. You think when bad shit happens to me, I’ll be in the crib like, “Oh! My God, this is terrible. Could somebody please find Ja Rule? Get hold of this motherfucker, so I can make sense of all this. Where is Ja? Help me Ja Rule.”
