john forte - ninety nine - flash the message ft. Jeni Fujita

[snoopdog44144]

ha.. i remember this

[euwartking]

what was name of his other song releaseed with this as a single

[Ahdree23]

wheres the video with the gray grill chick lol?

[909beats]

@Ahdree23 Hell yes! All you got was a head but it was hot right?

[ekimbro08]

i remember listening tho this on "the box". whatever happened to that station?

[Tribefankg]

classic



[Superseadragon]

@AntnysWorld Yup, John took us by surprise. Hope he's out. I respect a gangsta who doesn't make it rain. Though I'm sure he got snitched on.

[xILLxChronic]

@Superseadragon He's been out since '08, I think, I know he is for sure now. Guess who commuted his sentence? George W. Bush.

Oddly enough, Orrin Hatch and Carly Simon appealed for him too. Strange circumstances.

[Superseadragon]

98 was the year. When rappers used words, pronouns, and could put your English Lit teacher to shame. Now, these rappers are mostly coon squad promoters.

[fdarguellesjr]

This cat was hella dope..he got busted moving dope..what a shame..

[walkwithme]

yo niggas don't even know how this cat got mad time for having a bucnh of liquid cocaine and somehow obama pardoned dude... dude was real & didn't even pop that gangster shit

[dg28daman]

@walkwithme bush pardoned em not obama



[mistaox]

@walkwithme Bush  pardoned him....not Obama..google it..

[Choosy12341]

@walkwithme he also went to a boarding school...he wasn't that gangster

[Superseadragon]

@Choosy12341 No, he was gangta. Gangsters are intelligent, they don't do stupid stuff and brag in public. That's why when the Feds busted him, I was shocked and surprised. Appearances are deceiving.

[kfinnseth]

could you pleaaasse! upload the best song of the album,madina passage?,..Sony doesnt let europeans whattch the video,...biches

[7890628]

Where tha fuck is tha video? ? ? Maaan I miss this!

[fayettenam5]

[allbiz2k10]

@fayettenam5 AAAAA 11th grade shit!!! where was you at? I was in $edalia,mo smokin reggie out of swisher perfectos and phillie blunts. Pushin my 79 box chev & coppin 8 balls. OHHHH HOW TIMES HAVE CHANGED

[essenesearcher]

hip hop today is bitch= the worlds become effeminized, lets all rap about shopping now, what else is there?

[BassHeadSociety]

Yo i was like ten in harlem after a baseball game and a street team was giving a cassette out from him and this was on it this kinda really made me love hip-hop.

[63lolboy]

[icecreamladydream]

I LOVE YOU JOHN FORTE. YOU ARE SOOOOO FINE AND IM YOUR BIGGEST FAN!

[kevrona7788]

oldd schooolll 

[darkhorse2583]

I gotta give it to you hiaw this was this golden age of hip hop after this well some artist that came after 1998 were just about "RAPPIN" about the materails they have and how many females the materials bring. To me thats not hip hop thats rap. Like when you spit a rap to a female to get her number aka GAME. thats all it is and thats how i feel about that. It`s a difference from rap and hip hop. GOD BLESS HIP HOP.

[DjMisterSwankie]

[Fe11a11]

that was a great cd

[makeuptoya]

i haven't heard this song in ages..

[stunna291]

[scity1]

yo0o0o0 i been lo0king for this song since i wuz now..now im 18 like wow!! this is popping!!

[skeletonking84]

i been trying to find this song forever....i remember that weird video that went with it too...was pretty cool though....definitely loving this jam

[HotRodakaMadMax]

whats the original called?

[rappadapp]

dis song jes came 2 my head & i had 2 try 2 find it

this joint is hard yo!!!

[achmadim]

yo is years i trying to remember this track

[the3lla]

Thank Goodness for the internet or we would have lost this jam forever..

[ggbowzerful]

man this brings back good memories

[Hotboy4u1]

like this song.. haha

[Kimbrock85]

i bought this single, i played it a million times, then i lost it at some point

[thagoodness]

Lol same thing with me, I need to go purchase it again.

[hiawathaw]

This represents the Golden Age of Hip Hop to all of you "Walk it Out" and "Stanky Leg" youngstas! I DARE you to try to touch this! Bring your best representative!

[Kimbrock85]

"stanky leg" is one of worst songs i've heard in my life

[DubKballa]

U must not heard andre 3000 on the walk it out remix love his part open up to all types of music listen to everything and anything is what I do judge it after song by song type

[hiawathaw]

And you just proved my point... Andre is from the era I'm talking about. Outkast is from the "Golden Age" of Hip Hop... He's the only hot part of that song. I am an artist. Music is the fabric of my being... and because of that, I can recognize garbage when I see/hear it. But I completely accept that people are free to like what they like. That's cool. But these are my opinions.

[DubKballa]

Naw im just saying try everything I listen to radio once a month find some okay thing but sometimes you gotta hear garbage in order to find good music hip hop is still there alotta old cats still making good music just listen to everything get a variety

[kungblao]

@hiawathaw waka flocka is better.....lol

[kungblao]

he was flipping the izzles before snoop!

[gavinbayne718]

@hiawathaw those words you typed couldn't be any more real/true. (((SALUTES YOU))))

[meezleton]

i remember this video wit the hood ornament chick on the front of the old school singin the chorus....i been tryna find it for the LONGEST time

[dthon1]

Suicide is a suicide....burrubaba!

[KoMei79]

Thank you for sharing

[JfarmerJr]

there are wolves in sheeps clothing

and there are sheep in wolves clothing.

I told everyone that Bush was not racist.

But instead a puppet used to get Obama into office. (GOOD JOB) Bush was a sheep in Wolves clothing. Nice to see John Home. Thank you, And God Bless U Mr. Bush. Flash the Message.

[iamwealthy01]

That is the dumbest comment i have ever heard in my life. You must think you are a wise man.

[JfarmerJr]

(1 of 2) Bush

I can see how you would think this.

Believe it or not i am a black man.

Bush actually did pardon Mr. Forte.

Please here me out.

In order to get people embrace one thing they have to dispise another. Obama deserve to be president.  but he had to tip the scale Just... a little. Lets say I Gave u a moped and make you keep it for 8 years and you could not ride in or ride on anything else. then in 8 years I offer you a motorcycle or a limosine. things would be hands down.

[JfarmerJr]

(2of2) Bush

(cont) the plan was to make the republican party so well hated that we would have no option but to choose Obama (not a bad thing but a great thing).

this is waht we call a forced change. us African Americans have sympothisors (yes Some white people) who believe that the world need a change for the better, even if it's by force.

What reason in the world would a "Racist" have to gain by Giving a black man a Pardone. I'ts contradictive.

Thanks for @least reading & giving thought.

[brick409]

That's Real !!! Well written and thought provoking.

[JfarmerJr]

Thank you.

May God continue to take you into his hands and bless you.

[jball2ktherapper]

your exactly right.

[JfarmerJr]

Thanks Jball

May God Continue to keep you in his hands and heart.

James Farmer Jr. (My actuall name)

[jball2ktherapper]

thanks james for that message you sent me. made me feel good about life.

[JfarmerJr]

you're welcome.

[JfarmerJr]

May God Continue to bless you.

[thakozhani]

LOL!

[ceb2008love]

welcome back John. I hope that you make it right that time. I hope that you will succeed because we all need another chance in life.

Lyrics to Ninety Nine (Flash The Message) :

(feat. Jenni Fujita and Wyclef Jean)

[girlsixdiva]

[CHORUS: Jenni Fujita] Me and my crew in a little tour show Learned to flip the door with the money we've got. The blocks stay hot, getting knocked it's on Till one by one, we were gone. Subway sparks after dark. Flash the message: something's out there. [Wyclef Jean] Yo John, that was the eighties man. This is Ninety-nine. It's crazy out there. [Jenni Fujita] Flash the message: something's out there.

[girlsixdiva]

[Wyclef Jean] John Forte`, uh-huh, uh-huh. Hey yo, John Forte`. [Verse 1: John Forte`] Yo...yo... Hustle big, hustle small. All y'all relate to it. I'm a a culture power, baby, when I run right through it. What the biz, money? You know John and what it is. But then again too many yes-men... (Wyclef: "Yo John, they missed it.") Hustle big, hustle small. All y'all relate to it. I'm a a culture power, baby, when I slide right through it. What the biz, money? You know John and what it is.

[girlsixdiva]

Then again too many yes-men inside the business. We stay grungy. Risk take on streets like a bungee. Hoes get nothing from me. I'm-a die feeling hungry. Rappers too complacent. I make hits in the basement. Got all the men on top wondering where they placement. If it's real, then it's real, And it ain't no replacement. Them jealous cats who talk need to all walk adjacent. I trifold y'all all into a image my mold. So I can teach you how to walk, eat, drink, and buy gold. My shit is iz-ill.

[girlsixdiva]

Wear three condoms out in Brazil. Brothers from the 'ville no fault at the iz-ill. Wanna have a duke? Get real! How you fiz-eel? You couldn't stick me if you brought the chisel. What the diz-eal? Eat four stars at every miz-eal. You kiz-ill the vibe. You just high from the twiz-ill. And sti-zill I flow riz-ill, leave you fiz-ill, And leave y'all all stuck like Jack from without the Jiz-ill What?

[girlsixdiva]

[CHORUS: Jenni Fujita (Wyclef's lyrics in parentheses)] Me and my crew in a little tour show Learned to flip the door with the money we've got. (Make the money) The blocks stay hot, getting knocked it's on. Till one by one, we were gone. (I'm gone) Subway sparks after dark. Flash the message: something's out there (Suicide. It's a suicide. Parappa!) Flash the message: something's out there.

[girlsixdiva]

[Verse Two: John Forte`] I shoot the gift cop. Find John at the strip spot Juggling three who all know to keep their lips locked. I don't get got. I told y'all before: it's hot. Fuck the floss. I'm the boss when I rock flip-flops. Culture hip-hop. Before I take your head you should skip bop. Or find us in your homes with the chrome and the shits cocked. What?

[girlsixdiva]

Hey y'all pose hard, but they rip up.

I leave them enemies with their lips shut.

Did what?

Yo money ease up how you cease us.

You better off reefin' lighting trees up,

Smoking with your mens fantasizing something swiftly.

But little did you know I had the whole country with me

[girlsixdiva]

[BRIDGE: Wyclef Jean] Little do you know [x3] I got the whole country with me. Little do you know, huh? [Repeat CHORUS] [Repeat BRIDGE] [Repeat CHORUS] [Wyclef Jean] Refugee Camp All-stars, Dirty Cash, C.O., Wyclef Jean, Nutzbaby, Nutzbaby. John Forte`, where you at baby? Come on

[girlsixdiva]

There was a real video done for this song...anyone know if it's somewhere on this site?

[ordaboy]

can anybody send me the mp3 of this song? i can return the favor

[geiuy]
