His Name's Mike Jones, and did I mention his name's Mike Jones?

His Name's Mike Jones, and did I mention his name's Mike Jones?

Ok, here's the thing, this southern music, you like it, well, I like it, sometimes, well, depending, but it's like you feel guilty enjoying it, you know? It's not, as Chuck D might opine, sophisticated. I like this mike jones shit.

Especially the single, you feel it, it's saying something. It's saying that, well, back then hoes didn't want him, now he's hot as molasses or whatever, I think he's saying "hot as hot dogs on me?" not sure, but the jist is, he was a run of the mill chunky dude, at least in the eyes of the ladies, and now he's king of the hill, all cuz grammamma told him to use his name and give out his cell number on record and say his name over and over and over again, and, well, you know what, it works.


For a while. The single (Back Then) is hot. A few songs later, though, you start getting irritated.

Especially when he says that he's in the "turning lane" about 900 times in a row. But the really odd part, is that you listen to this record for the fourth time, and suddenly it doesn't bother you, now you like it. It's, I don't know, imperturbable?

No, that's not the right word. It's uncanny. Like mutants in Westchester, you're not quite sure what it's about.


Then there's "Still Tippin'", which sounds a lot like "Back Then" but not. I can't really describe it. And it's got Paul Wall, who, besides having a great name (tell me a better one, please) can rap the doors off.

Paul kind of reminds me, and not in his flow or style, but in the way he snuck up on me as an unexpected stand-out voice, of Soljah Slim (RIP), the way he shined on those old Master P no limit joints.
And then there's song 11, a remix to the song "cuttin'" which has, seriously, a sample of "yodel ay hee hoo", like, the yodel? And what's weird is it works.

This is an album that the first time you hear it, aside from a few songs, you're ready with the shovel to bury rap music, and then on the fifth or sixth listen, you're at the diamond teeth store, dropping your kid's college fund on a blinged out grill. It's, as said, uncanny. And there's the fact that Mr.

Jones can actually rap, in between spittin out his name phone number and repeating the chorus for the 18th time, there are some gems.
Anyway, the "it grows on you like a weed" phenomenon, combined with the production, which ain't half bad, and works for the material, and despite and, conversely, because of, the repetitive lyrics over over again, and the listenability curve which takes more turns than an anaconda after a cough syrup binge, lead me to the inexorable conclusion that I'd recommend it. To myself, at least.

Aloha.

Keep reading for information and comments on this article, and add some feedback of your own!
Isn't this the same guy who shouts out his phone number all the time and encourages his fans to call him?


Also, calling your album Who Is Mike Jones? leaves yourself open to a lot of easy potshots from critics..

.
"Who is Mike Jones? That's the question that will be on people's minds six months from now when this album ends up in the bargain bin at your local K-Mart.

"
Things of that sort.

GANGSTERS ARE [Deleted]!!
Mikes Jones raps for the people with.

..I just saw a bird on a tree branch.

Oh yeah, where was I?
hi, rap sucks..

.. end of story.

.. Yo guys, I'm a hater, bust a cap in my ass, shoot me in the face with a gat.

.. I dont care, I just want to say that Mike Jones is gay.

There is probably only about 2 good rap artists, rap groups, what ever and one of those is Three 6 Mafia...

I dont care what you guys say about me being a hater, and blowing my ass away, bustin a cap, to be quite honest, I dont wanna "fuck" with Mike Jones, but I do want all of you people to get a grip and realize hes not interested in talkin to you. He probably did change his number, and he probably did it for a good reason, the good reason, being you guys. Well, I dont want my ass busted by a cap, and I think it would be great if you all overreacted when someone stated there opinion about Mike Jones being gay.

I dont know if Mike Jones is gay, but I know that he is a waste of music, although, hes not really music, no talent.
Y0 I know where mike jones got his mad phat inspiration yo drizzle dizawgs! .

It was when he was playing Donatello in the ninja turtles movie and Vanilla Ice was rapping "go ninja go ninja go!"
Oh and by the way, Rap isnt real music, its bad poetry, set to a bad beat. Want real music?

Go listen to Queen, or Guns N' Roses, or Led Zeppelin, or Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, or you know what? Any band without black people, I would say except Hendrix, but hes hardly black, he has white fingers, and clearly is more white than black, like this kid james I know. Bob marley sucks.

James was raised by white people, I have a notion to believe so was Hendrix, if not white parents, white people drugs, which soon became black people drugs. So in conclusion Mike Jones sucks. "mike jones mike jones.

...

.mike jones, they didnt want me, but now they cant have me, and still dont want me"
Oh and I forgot, since you people call people so much, call me at 666-rapisgay.
If it isnt Ice Ice baby, or Go ninja go, or anything by Vanilla Ice, its immoral stupid, retarded, "ignant", mindless, idiotic, babble.


Yeah im reppin da H-town but keppin it real in C-town...

..yeah mike jones is ma nigga he ma big teddie bear .

...

. Now "flossin" thats ma jam it use to be "Back then" but tha white pplz discovered it an yeah ruined it fo all of us.LoL
I do believe you uneducated home fries need to go back to school and learn to spell, because what ya'll call spelling is a heart attack.

Especially whoever post number 5 was. Dizzy shizzy

im gonna start my music career so there's a big need to meet him.

i wanna tell him how i adore him. i think i might attend fashion school in houston instead of miami.
I like big men.

it's something very cute about them. like when there sleep they look like a chubby baby; and when your cuddling they're like a teddy bear. they're so cute and sweet.

i can tell he is. by the way he studda's and stuff when he takes interviews. he has no experience in interviews i find that quite attractive.


I loved his performance in that whole 2005 bet awards. even though it wasn't such a good award show.
Chamillionaire is straight up right , mike jones is a straight fool.

[Edited]
Mike Jones - The most non-rapping rapper Houston has ever seen.
i cant stand mjs voice, sounds like hes askin his momma for a candy bar at the store. chamillionaire and paul wall sound like men and dont have to rap all day about how they couldnt get pussy before they were famous.

mj needs to take the money hes got, and leave the industry asap
mike jones is the shit so fuck all ya hatin niggas,ya just mad because he stakin paper.
there seems to be alot more people against mj then with him. thats cuz he doesnt deserve to be famous like many other rappers do, 50 cent really was a drug dealer and really was a thug, mike jones is well known because of the way his voice sounds(even though i still think its annoying) its the same with lil wayne and lil flip, without their voices they wouldnt ever make it in the game
mike ones sucks.

.. he is a disgrace to the rap industry
im mikejones who mike jones the 1 and only and u cant cloan me i got a lot of haters and lots of homies some firends and some fonie fuck all ya haters ya just watch by the years i bet he will be number 1 like he says biatch!

the one track was hot, it all sucked after that. C'mon rappers don't need to rap bout their grandma's.

basically the guy is a 1 hit wonder. where is mike jones, his single is on crunk hits 2006 his single came out 2 years earlier. poor guy should be on the back of a milk carton.

where did he go and I hope he doesn't come till he gots a album with at least 4 or decent tracks. I know it won't happen so lets start a wack rapper collection fund so he can feed family
