Musiq Soulchild, was a soulful child of music once.

Musiq then:


He brought us beautiful R&B melodies in "HalfCrazy" and "Previouscats" and so many other tunes, a mellow and silky smooth baritone (this is debatable) throughout his records and lovely lyrics in... um.... Well, I didn't say everything is perfect!

Rap is slowly becoming a joke, hip-hop revolutionaries better recognize. And poor Musiq has been corrupted by the plastic rap we have become desensitized to today. Thanks, Young Jeezy and the rest of you may or may not know who you are! "Radio" the semi-title track on his new album, On My Radio, threw me. In a bad way.

Musiq now:


I'm sorry Mus, you know I got your back any other day. But these tacky beatz don't fool anyone. You're rhyme dropping is s-l-o-w and quite awkward. "Now I'm in the Dirty South, ATL Georgia?" Really, Nelly? I sure haven't heard that before.

You are not Kanye West. Frankly, Kanye West isn't even always Kanye West. Please, please stick to what you're good at.

Feeling cynical? Read these lyrics for a good chuckle.

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Cool
Hey
Everywhere I be I see shawties they lovin the
Way I rock my hat, fresh tie on a button up
Fresh dentals with a fresh vest or a sweater or
Fresh pair of fresher than cause
Everywhere I go they always want a picture
Whisperin in my ear is there anybody wit ya
Want a autograph or they just tryin to get the
Answer to questions like
(what you listenin to?)
I tell her
[Chorus]
Whatever I like I
Put it on my radio
You can probably find
something new on my radio
If you wanna ride (cool)
Just don’t touch my radio
Don’t look so surprised
You can trip if you want to
Don’t front you know know you love it
Put it on the radio
Don’t front you know know you love it
Put it on the radio
Don’t be scared you can crank it bra
Just turn up the radio
Don’t be shy you can shake it girl
Just turn up the radio
[Verse 2]
Ya I’m from the East Cost
Philly I was brought up
Now I’m in the Dirty South
ATL Georgia
I just left the studio
I think I gotta heater
Watch out for that 8O8
(It could brush it sweeter)
Shawty tryin to holla I
Told her I could meet her
We could do the resteraunt
We could do the theatre
Pulled up to her spot
Started talking bout some music
She said (you ain’t from around here)
(What you think is hot)
I told her
[Chorus x2]
Whatever I like I
Put it on my radio
You can probably find
something new on my radio
If you wanna ride (cool)
Just don’t touch my radio
Don’t look so surprised
You can trip if you want to
Don’t front you know know you love it
Put it on the radio
Don’t front you know know you love it
Put it on the radio
Don’t be scared you can crank it bra
Just turn up the radio
Don’t be shy you can shake it girl
Just turn up the radio
Hey (x like 97)

Whatever I like I
Put it on my radio
You can probably find
something new on my radio
If you wanna ride (cool)
Just don’t touch my radio
Don’t look so surprised
You can trip if you want to
Don’t front you know know you love it
Put it on the radio
Don’t front you know know you love it
Put it on the radio
Don’t be scared you can crank it bra
Just turn up the radio
Don’t be shy you can shake it girl
Just turn up the radio (repeat twice)

Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
Cool (ooooh he be changin! Keep it real playa)
Hey
