I rock Eminem and 50 Cent crowds and now spend 24 hours a day sittin' in the house

Slim Thug - Like A Boss
(From Already Platinum album; 2005)



People whose opinions about Rap you can never trust: people who think Like A Boss isn't a top 10 Neptunes production, and people who think the chickenhead hypewoman on Like A Boss' hook in anyway spoils the song. Absolute 5 star milla 10/10 perfect jam. Get well soon, Slim Thug and Scarface.

This was one of the few Neptunes beats that worked on that Already Platinum album.

Two Z-Ro's features on the new album, one from Face but Face sounds so lame.

Protect Paul Wall!

Best Slim Thug song by a mile.

Did you check that new Paul Wall album already?

Kelvin Mack10zie said...

Negative but I probably will check it.

Lol at that hasthag/searchword, hopefully no one else gets infected in Houston though.

I know a lot of people weren't happy with the Neptunes/Slim Thug pairing when that album came out, but I think the whole album has aged up pretty well. I do prefer the next one, Boss Of All Bosses.

His Hogg Life mixtapes series had some good joints and some terrible choices, but if you were to compile all the good songs you'd end up with a great record through and through.

Never forget Problematic from the Already Platinum bootleg 😄

When my dad heard this song, he asked me, "why is he like a blouse?"

Random musing but I always wished that Neptunes had picked Lil Keke to work with instead of Slim Thug, after hearing how good Keke sounded over Neptunes beats on mixtapes/freestyles.

This track is a hall of famer, never trust anyone who would say otherwise.
