It is not "trivia" and does not belong here. - eo 19:19, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I took out the part about " This single has been heavily criticized for being a "snap" song just like the dirty south, which lacks real hip hop lyricism. However, in the song, MIMS says "I don't gotta rap, I can sell a mill' sayin' nothin' on the track", so it is speculated he is parodying the "snap" songs."

First of all, who speculated this? Secondly, how is making a reference to the same "saying nothing" behavior equivalent to a parody if the entire song is made in that mode

Hi, i'm Matt from Germany. First: Sorry for my bad english...

In the german Wikipedia MIMS-Page is a important information: The Old Logo from the MIMS-Album and Single is stolen from the german rapper bushido. Bushido has a Live-DVD and is shown on the cover. Here's a link:

I think this is an important information - here is the german wikipedia page -> http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mims_%28Rapper%29

Thanks, Matt
