My wife and I used to just laugh until we just about blacked out when VH1 was playing this. This is what they call in the hip hop community an epic. Give me "Supper's Ready" or "This Strange Engine" any day of the week over this. Warning: it is hysterically moronic.

I saw a sum up of this video.

I don't have the time to watch the whole thing...

but the first five minutes made me laugh my ass off.

"Why don't I just go out the window?"
"We're on the third floor"
"sh*t."

R Kelly gives Hip-Hop a bad name (isn't he R&B?...)

Even though the story is kind of very stupid, I have to give him props for doing it. How many epics do you see in MTV or VH1 lately?. And I think it's quite innovative no matter how horrendous the story line may be.

Still, it pretty much sucked.

Well, if you're going to take the time to pen an epic, not only pick a better subject matter, but choose your words wisely and don't sound like a complete moron. "I closed my mouth and swallowed some spit"? Come on!

OK, I had to quit before one minute was up.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Any song that ends with a well endowed dwarf soiling himself is beautiful on paper, but yet this song was so bad. Surely he can't be serious?

Would you like to watch TV, or get between the sheets, or contemplate the silent freeway, would you like something to eat?

Agreed.

It was a nice idea, though.

I know sitting through it is excruciating; however, did any you last long enough to see the end of the 4th or 5th chapter when he discovers a prophylactic in their bed? The song ends with the word 'rubber' echoing to fade. It's absolutely hysterical.

I actually heard that he was nominated for a Grammy for this garbage. Sad!

I actually watched the whole thing, but I thought you guys would get a kick out of knowing that my monitor "went to sleep" at the 16 minute mark. I've never seen it do that during a video before.
