We’re going to start something new here on The Barney Show. Actually, it’s more like returning to something that was on the original Barney Show from the back of the bus. Top 7. Every live episode had a Top 7. For a better explanation, check out my second episode ever back in June 2007 (Welcome to the Barney Show).
This Top 7 will focus on one of the best albums I’ve heard in awhile. Joe Budden’s Mood Muzik 3 is straight fire. In fact, it might be the best album I’ve heard since his Mood Muzik 2. Joe is my favorite rapper out right now lyrically. Maybe it’s because he talks about real shit. Maybe how he rips every song lyrically and has some of the best metaphors out there. Maybe it’s because he makes more sports references than any other rapper. He has to watch SportsCenter daily for some of these references. In fact, that’s this Top 7. The Top 7 Mood Muzik 3 Sports Lyrics:
7. “How y’all feel y’allselves, y’all should kill y’allselves, us Cowboys don’t need you, you Bill Parcells.”
I like the NFL coaching change reference.
6. “Eye of a tiger, nah, a sniper with great aim, I won’t be another great flame, that takes blame, in great pain, Ask Eddie Griffin, you gonna lose everytime you go against a freight train.”
Wow. How many rappers talk about the death of a average front court player? (OK, Malik Sealy got name checked on Stillmatic. That’s why they pay me the big bucks. For facts like that.) This would be higher up, if I hadn’t cringed the first time I heard this. It requires a “Too soon?” comment everytime.
5. “Cause you ain’t crazy stop it, even if you wild like Randy Moss, start feeling Patriotic, how I’m a lose with Tom Brady in the pocket, beg a dude to come back like the Yankees did to Rocket.”
This is what I would do. In a song about a girl trying to pursue Joe, he makes three references to sports. I wonder if he stops during sex while watching the All Star game?
4. “These felons ain’t predicates, sand castle delicate, metal spit, leave ‘em on the field like Everett.”
Another cringer, but timely. This is acceptable since Kevin Everett is walking now.
3. “I tell a bird like it is, you promised the broad, I one line ‘em, you Isiah Thomas the broad.”
Isiah sexual harassment lines will always get good reviews in The Barney Show.
2. “I guess what I’m tryna say, is niggas ‘ill die running like Ryan Shay.”
Wait, did he just make a reference to a marathoner? That has to be the first time a rapper has ever done that. That’s why it’s number 2.
1. “I’m not a drug lord, nobody hand me keys, gotta drop a few branches off my family tree, guess I raised my sons all wrong, I’m Andy Reid.”
This line is hilarious, I don’t care what you say. I laughed my ass off the first time I heard it. I still giggle when I hear it now.
So there you have it, the Top 7 Sports Lyrics on Mood Muzik 3. Now go cop that album, since he’s not going to have an actual release anytime soon. Jay, you fucked up by letting him leave Def Jam.
