| the lyrics are a little off, but whatever. The question is why a song about shoes? NIKE IS PAYING THRU THE NOSE FOR THIS!!!!! They gave him his own shoe out of the whole deal. I'm not a huge fan of this style of music, but people who are callin names, and saying that music has no meaning have to lighten up. Remember, he's rich, and you're not. Don't hate. | |

| Kill Avril 41- i agree with u. Even ya name LOL The kinda music that u dont really have to think about is fun. Not every song has to have a meaning thats gonna change your life. Who doesn't like to dance and smile. Nelly's music does that to me. | |

| Before anyone calls me an idiot... I wasn't reading the lyrics to a song I dispise, I was reading the comments to the songs I dispise, trying to see who could try to get some meaning out of the song. First off: This song is about shoes! Who gives a fuck?! EVERYONE HAS SHOES! I have some boots but I'm not spending hours of songwriting time, production time, and costs of renting a studio... ON FUCKING SHOES! Second: What's the obsession with white on white shoes... then when they get dirty or scuffed... people will actually fist-fight over them. If you don't want your shoes scuffed... DON'T BUY WHITE SHOES ASSHOLE! Holy shit, they get dirty, you walk in dirt and the street and everywhere... shoes get fucking dirty! Get it? Didn't think so. "But they look cool!" WELL SHIT! HOW SHALLOW CAN YOU BE! "I'm from the streets, I live in the ghetto..." I LIVED IN THE GHETTO... WE DIDN'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT SHOES... WE WEREN'T PICKY... WE WERE POOR! Before I start shooting everyone with white shoes... and listening to them all say, with their dying breath... "I'ma get you, you made me bleed on my shoes, bitch..."... I'm gonna stop this comment. | |

| Fuck ending the comment... It's a five minute commercial! Half of it isn't coherant... "O.. k li, I treat my shoe like my ride (Big boy) chrome on the fat laces at what wood on the inside (Big boy) spray candy on the swoosh With the electric roof " If you compare two things, make the fucking analogy sensical! "fish bowlin um all"? What does that mean? "I like the all white high top strap with the gum bottom (Big boy) theres somthin bout dem that's dirty why I got em (Big boy) I leave um strapped and laced and come up out um (Big boy) the last person that touched um I been shot um, (big boy)" Basically... he said "I tie my own shoes, and I shot someone for touching them... so instead of getting their hands on them... I have now gotten blood on them and ruined them." If you scuff your shoes, the night is ruined? How many of you actually can HONESTLY SAY you pay a lot of attention to shoes when you're out at the club? Now, here's the thing that it says to me in this whole song... "We are worse than women... all we care about is shoes and clothes... but we're from the streets." No... sorry DMX is from the streets... and guess what? He still isn't obsessed with shoes and clothes "We know how much your watch costs". 2pac... same thing. ODB... guess what? Same thing. | |

| Why are you reading the lyrics to a song you dispise? Um... can u say dumb fuck? Ok, I like air Ones and I like Nelly. So how many hit songs have you made agian? Think about it, if he can make a hit song bout shoes then he has gotta be talented! But being optimistic wouldn;t kill you. Your hate will. | |

| Filth, ignorant filth. That's all rap is. I would say where's the song about his car, but I know he's probably done that already. What about that gay ass band-aid? I think it deserves its own song. Look up the true story behind that and you'll see what a fraud this joke is. | |

| To whoever likes this so-called "rapper", he is a waste of space and his music is just worthless and trash. His music doesn't even deserve to be called rap because all his music is based on the same thing. Stop fuckin' listening to this shit and listen to something different you fucked up fagots | |

| Damn straigh junkyardd0g777. What kind of a person writes a song about a shoe? Seriously though... A SHOE?! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HIM? And he needs to lose that band-aid. He looked like a fag to begin with without that piece of shit stuck on his face. | |

| i agree killavril...i mean, ok some songs are good cause they have a meaning, and their deep. but you know, most of nellys songs mean something and all artists have a song which is about something stupid. like incubus (nice 2 know you), they had a song about a sore thumb! and other people..and rchp, theyre songs, some of them are meaningless or at least have a VERY complex meaning. but this song is good. well its ok | |

| I agree with two317, if your going to make a song about shoes, at least get a lucrative contract with the company. That was pretty much an ad for Nike shoes, and Nelly didn't get a dime from them. Also, that just goes to show you that rap is crap. You can rap about anything, as long as you put a cool beat in it, and people will like it. | |
