but damn every female in this video is beautiful i like the blackasian chick shes super hoooot!!!!the one at 1:40 and the one at 1:10 with the mole on her face so hooot!11
sorry say what you want but el debarge dont have a gay bone in his body sensitive but not gay the man has 10 kids for crying out loud!!!llol and he has a saprono voice!
quik be frontin like he aint gangsta we all know he is he just grown up and he still the best producer in the game keep funkin them up side the head p funk homie
LOL! !WTF JUST HAPPENED 2 d"LAKERS? MUTHAFOOS WE RIDERS- FUK THESE COWBOYS! BIG UPS 2 d'CABRONES W/ COJONES: KOB'E! ARIZA! ODOM! FISH!BROWN!FARMAR! BYNUM /GASOL ESP. WALTON!!!! GET UR MIND RITE. DONT GO OUT LIKE THAT?!? FUKN BUMS ...MAKE THIS d'ANTHEM IN UR LIFE PENDEJOS- THIS W/S 4 LIFE!!!! WELCOME 2 L.A. BYATCH!
this is a dope song i cant even hear the words cuz there's so much bass in this song.....that mexican boy got a real soprano voice (thats more appropriate than sayin he sound like a girl or gay)
REAL TALK! EL DeBarge AINT NO fag!.... Dat nigga more GHETTO than u think!...... Dont let the LOOK FOOL U.....Plus dat nigga got bout 10 or 11 kids REAL TALK..... Keep your head Nigga u be out in 2yrs
Yeah, that dude is El DeBarge. Before I saw the video I too thought it was a chick on the hook, despite El being on a couple of other tracks on the album.
i love this song. i played it like 10000 times when i was in the 8th grade back in 1998. damn i miss these days. biggie and pac aftermath along with no limit records coming to an end
well hate to bust your bubble but the beautiful woman that el debarge is with is not black she is french hawiaan german irish and has phillipino blood and if you dont know her that is shannyn sossamon
yeah certain islanders and certain races look just like black ppl......real talk i thought garcelle beavuais was the finest black girl ever when i saw her on jamie foxx show and then realized like 5 yrs later she aint even full black if she got any in her
real? Oh crap! I had heard about him getting in trouble w/ the law not too long ago, but I don't think I heard about him being sentenced to prison. Too bad. That man's got an amazing voice!
The reason i said "funny" in the previous message is beacuse someone poasted a comment that they thought El Derbarge was John Leguizamo, that shit was funny.
I love this song but I got to admit when I first heard it before seeing the video I thought it was a woman singing the chorus. then I discovered it was Debarge whoops :( still sounds good!
El DeBarge late 90s collaboration with DJ Quik here as well as his quest appearance on Tone Loc early 90s hit "All Through The Night" was hot and lent a form of sophistication to both raps that couldn't have been achieve without him. The brotha' is bad and be it rap, gospel, jazz or soul, El remains a class act.
This was one of the best hip hop soul tracks from 1998, smooth, and funky, and in this video, the lyrics aren't edited, yeah, I like it raw, my music that is!!
I am officially no longer a fan of Shannyn Sossamon. She had no business being all over my man like that and having the nerve to enjoy it while lip syncing his words. How dare she?
i luv dj quik, hes a g, but he brings quality shit, can bring that r and b shit into hip-hop, check out toni-tone lets get down, thats a song dats str8 blazin, hotter than heat.
I can't believe el debarge was in this video when it came out. He's been aound for ever. I was like 20 years old when I heard this song. made me change my view on dj quick after hearing this. nice beats.
This beat is pimp and de barge's voice is magic! Lmao, That cat ain't gay he's just got that Smooth, pimp, latin lover flava the ladies love...just like me! lol
Rhythmalism is a classic hip hop album...true platinum.
I have to agree. I shortened name and jigga empty words do not a rapper make. Many of the rappers today have no sense of style and concept. We can only hope real talent rises to the top.
whos being say El is gay.That pisses me off so much when peeps say he is gay.cuz he so aint.The Lyrics in some of his songs prove he aint.Make you mine for example from his album gemini erm cant get enough from heart,mind and soul.Listen to the lyrics and watch the video on that song.
so el aint gay. El come back and make some music man
El Debarge addsthe suave and class to this true anthem!! Playa's aint nothing be a man and take care of your family and that is power!!! Not little kids acting like imposters!! SAT NAM Learn history and see the reality of chasing foolishness!!
El's falsetto is in tradition with legends like Eddie Kendrick,Smokey robinson,Phillip Baliey,Ronald Isley and countless others! 2 say he's gay is ignorant!
damn, i remember in 96 when rythym-a-lism came out...that shit was tight! i'm not too sure about this "Can u werk wit that", kind a bullshit is though???
if el debarge was gay then tell me why the fuck 2pac used debarge's beat on i ain't mad at cha??? you stupid fucks just don't know real gangsta shit!!!
Lmao el debarge is not gay- this is the same dude who has 10 kids and almost as many baby mamas lol- doesnt scream faggot to me lol. and he has one of the best voices- shame mj overshadowed him during the 80's
I just think he is sooo SEXY, it's just something about him maybe it's just how bad ass thuggish he is. Damn idk but i love him and that voice is off da chain. i use to love this song and still it's off da chain.
its his confidence missy, hes not afraid to show who he is, its what most women look for, the smart ones also look for wit, which most men do not have and the reason why many women get hurt with the "bad boys"
first you get the power then you get the money then you get pussy don't be no dummy sick sick sick shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
