        The more this topic comes up...the more I think you and I should quit the diets and create a new fat white boy rap group. -- nm - Jim Mar 11, 09:03 1
        
        If I had a spare 10 minutes at home, I could finally get my production software set up and start on some demo tracks. - TFox Mar 11, 09:05
  - Lauren is there as a member of the Fugees (and only did one record, so no on solo anyway.) - TFox Mar 11, 08:50

      - [deleted] 3

  - (spoiler) - JaxSean Mar 11, 08:40 1
    - cool -- nm - crash davis Mar 11, 08:47

        Oh, Jim is right, I am wrong :) -- nm - con_carne Mar 11, 08:57
        
        *dying laughing* That is so not Eric B & Rakim. - TFox Mar 11, 08:56
        
        That's Rob Base and DJ EZ-Rock. Not Eric B and Rakim. -- nm - Jim Mar 11, 08:56
        
        oh! I've heard that song. I vote for them :) -- nm - crash davis Mar 11, 08:55
    - "you don't know them, they obviously lost" doesn't help much when you've only heard of 2 in a group of 8. -- nm - Ender Mar 11, 08:41 1
      - No it does not. -- nm - TFox Mar 11, 08:41
