BECKY RAP

This is one of my favourite recent terms used on the strut. But before I plough into using it full time, I'd like to get an official call on what is and isn't covered by said moniker. I think I have it down, but there's nothing that exposes bad character worse than slang misuse. So, in order to clarify, can I get a short list of tracks that would be considered GOATS in this genre. Also feel free to elaborate on related lifestyle extras such as fashion, language, behaviour and perhaps the history of the term, etymology? Where does that new Nelly Furtado fit in to all of this (if at all)??Can we get a graemlin up in here too???

    Ha, that's good, but who are these Becky's? Would it be right to assume that they are poseur types, but like a chick version?

    I'm pretty sure that Becky's are sub-poseur.

    What does it refer to?

    Any rap record that has a catnip-like effect on whitegirls?

    That's pretty much every big club record circa eight months after it became unbearably played out.

    doesn't the mere existence of rhyme-spitting weather ladies & so forth indicate that rap is pretty much dead / over???

    Really? That one does surprise me, and makes me think I've got the whole thing wrong. I would have thought any bona fide Becky track would need at very least a sing-song chorus for them to latch on to.

    Whatever makes them feel like strippers.

    This is one of my favourite recent terms used on the strut.

    i believe this term originated in the "Tell me when to go" thread ??



    Becky: Lover of any "catchy" rap song first approved by Keisha ....yet because Becky is completely "disconnected" she does not discover these songs until they begin to lose favor with Keisha

    ex: "Best Friend" is Becky's shit right now




    p.s. Black Eyed Peas & Gnarls Barkley are excluded from this convo because we are speaking about rap music

    Word. Beckys also like the occasional BeckyRapClassic, e.g., Skee-Lo's "I Wish", Young MC's "Bust a Move", Salt-n-Pepa's "Push It", etc.

    Salt-n-Pepa's "Push It"

    One of the worst dating experiences I ever had was agreeing the second time this chick asked me to go to some Drill Team Ball my sophmore year of high school. I only agreed to go (yep, I had told her 'no, thanks' the first time she asked me) because her 3 best friends were already going with 3 of my good friends. They wanted to make it one big group date in a rented limo. The girl was blonde and pretty good looking but way too Becky-ish on the homely tip. Anyway, the worst part of the whole night(mare) was having to withstand those 4 girls in the limo going apeshit over "Push It" on the radio, making sure to recite all of its lyrics in whitewashed suburban harmony, many months after most had already considered the song disgustingly played out. I swear, my skin was literally crawling...

    OH MY GOD!

    dude I was at B-Cause's house last night and we stumbled upon a new term for "becky rap" last night.


    DRUM ROLL

    HOT TUNA

    "Yeah..son..yah mean...you know bring that hard God Body shit, some Mobb, Some Turf..but don't be afraid to bring some Hot Tuna like Gwen or some shit".

    just to clarify...

    this awful expression was accidentally stumbled on when y phonix was looking though my records and found a divider card for the band Hot Tuna and asked *with a snicker* what was in that section. I obliged, and the worst misuse of a band's name was birthed.

    I didn't think that sounded like you.

    But, for real: you actually have a Hot Tuna section? This is that Jefferson Airplane side project, right? How many records did they have?

    i think meh doesn't really fit in with the others, unless that particular ninja is super un-impressed.

    i use meh to express boredom/disregard/"whatever"...but i'm not a ninja

  • I have an entire expedit dedicated to that band.







    [color:white] nah, actually that was an old card from a record store I worked at [/color]
