A cross between a movie star
And a hero in a book
Romeo comes struttin' in
And everybody looks
'Cause he's just got that special thang
That everybody needs
And everybody wants him
But not as bad as me
Hey, Romeo, where art thou
Get out here on the floor
I want to dance you darlin'
'Til you forget wherefore
Let's two step to a new step
We'll keep it all in line
And we'll call this the Romeo
'Cause you're so mighty fine
Chorus:
Romeo, Romeo, Romeo come dance with me
That sexy little body
Beats all I've ever seen
I ain't never seen a cowboy
Look that good in jeans
My temperature keeps risin'
Every time we meet
I may not be in love
But let me tell you
I'm in heat
Chorus:
Romeo, Romeo, I just know I'll get you yet
Romeo, Romeo, I want to be your Juliet
So step it high, step it low
Step it out and in
Step to the side and let it slide
Then steppin' up again
Step on toes, it all goes
Steppin' as you please
But I'm one step away from love
So don't step out on me
Chorus:
Romeo, Romeo, Romeo with the magic feet
So step it high, step it low
Step it out and in
Step to the side and let it slide
Then steppin' up again
Step on toes, it all goes
Steppin' as you please
But I'm one step away from love
So don't step out on me
Tag:
Romeo, Romeo
I just know I'll get you yet
Romeo, Romeo
Won't you be my Juliet
Romeo, Romeo
Romeo, Romeo
My baby wears his heart on his sleeve
He wears a look on his face that says, "Please please please, love it"
Everything he wants, love it, everything he wants
I just can't hesitate when he wants what he wants
Oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka
And I say, "Oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka"
Last night he called on the telephone
And though at two in the morning, I just want to sleep on
But he's got a way with words and he's got a way with charm
And at three in the morning he's back into my arms
And I say, "Oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka"
And I say, "Oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka"
He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
He's my romeo, oh oh oh
He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
He's my R O M E O, romeo
He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
He's my romeo, oh oh oh
He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
He's my romeo
He looks so good that girls stop and stare
But I'll zoom on the mob with a double long dare
I'm not gonna let him go, I'm not takin' any chance
It's a one in a million mad romance
Say, "Oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka"
Oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka, oh chaka
He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
He's my romeo, oh oh oh
He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
He's my R O M E O, romeo
He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
He's my romeo, oh oh oh
He's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy, he's the boy
He's my romeo
My my romeo, my my romeo, he's my romeo
My my my my romeo, he's my my romeo, my my my my romeo
He's my my romeo, my romeo, my my my romeo
I have a secret place inside my mind,
where I keep hidden inspiration you will find.
And when my petty anger goes to my head,
you'll find I'm better off dead.
Oh, and I don't hold the key,
to find out what is killing me, its,
been so long but somehow i just still care,
I am a Romeo, am a Romeo, with no place to go
Sometimes I think you hate me, hang up the phone,
but take a closer look, this hate I feel is my own.
So many times I've loved you, more than myself,
it's time to take that love and put it on the shelf.
Oh, and when I hold you tight,
it makes me want to scream and fight.
Love turned to hate,
some how it's just, how it's just,
how it's just to late.
I am a Romeo, am a Romeo with no place to go
Rock the reggae music, cuz it sounds so fine, right!
When I hold you tight, in my arms you are mine,
but in the morning when I wake up and I still feel the same,
I know something goin on and I know who's to blame.
Everytime I tell you I'm the real Romeo,
it fills my soul and heart with anger, pain, and sorrow.
Cuz' something's going on and I think you should know,
so listen to my rhyme, cuz this is how it goes:
In a tight mini short in a short mini skirt,
it feels so wrong and it feels so right.
the more I think about it your a pain in the ass,
I told you many times, this time it's gonna last.
Want the kind of woman who can make me feel right,
not sloppy drunk sex on a Saturday night. cuz,
I am a Romeo, am a Romeo with no place to go
Pull up your honey if you gotta one see,
because your down with the style, cuz your down with me. oh,
rig the selector when your on the mixer,
along with Peter Mitchell upon the echo chamber. Two, one,
no they must see but no, they can't test me.
Two, three of them come and say you can't test me.
Because me rock the reggae music in a different stylee.
Me rock the kinda reggae music right on time, because your down with the
band that they call Sublime, right?
Don't take it too slow, don't take me wrong,
me know which way to go, me, me, me all right,
me rock the reggae music day and all night.
Makes you wanna explode,
makes me wanna explode,
makes me wanna explode,
makes you wanna explode,

You keep on giving me the hold up
You know id wish youd make your mind up
Coz when we get it on its so-so
You used to be my romeo
(whoo-o-way-o)

Starring Through a deep cold void,
alone in the dark.
And i miss youre warmth in the morning
And the laughter when i cant stop yawning
Coz the tears on my pillow have dried my dear
Im gonna let it all go

Chorus:
Chorus till fade
I studied Shakespeare
when I was at school
thought Romeo was a pet
Felt if I met him
I'd act like a fool
I'd be a poor Juliet
Now that I know him
I'm not really sure
boy you're as charming as he
Saying the same things
to all the girls
or is it just to me
Romeo,
why am I so in love with you
Romeo,
is it you or the things you do
I've been yours
from the moment you said hello
Are you mine
or just only my Romeo
I studied Shakespeare
when I was at school
thought Romeo was a joy
I liked the true way
he loved Juliet
just my ideal of a boy
You know I like you as my Romeo
that's how I want you to be
but if you're out on some other date
can you be true to me
Romeo,
why am I so in love with you
Romeo,
is it you or the things you do
I've been yours
from the moment you said hello
Are you mine
My girlfriend is a lesbian
Not even bi-sexual
Am I just a thespian
Acting out Romeo?
We cruise chicks together
We dress in real fake leather
But sometimes the weather,
It gets to hot...
We can kiss like mothers
We can sleep like brothers
We can walk like lovers,
But thats as far as it goes
And so I do not hesitate
To hope one day that she turns straight
And if that day never comes,
Then make me a lesbian
My girlfriend is a lesbian
Not even bi-sexual
Am I just a thespian
Acting out Romeo?
We cruise chicks together
We dress in real fake leather
But sometimes the weather,
It gets to hot...
We can kiss like mothers
We can sleep like brothers
We can walk like lovers,
But thats as far as it goes
And so I do not hesitate
To hope one day that she turns straight
And if that day never comes,

You say goodbye
I can't even find the reason why
I know that I've been a fool
But I never thought
I'd be without you
Cause you are my love
You are the only girl I'm dreaming of
When I say I'll never let go
Just believe in me
I want you to know
(chorus)
I'll be holding on
I'll be holding on
Forever till you come home
I'll be holding on
You know it's true
That I'll be waiting here for you
I believe wherever you go
There's a chance in you and me
And I want you to know
Repeat Chorus
Gonna make it
Gonna show you
That I mean it
From the bottom of my heart
Let me tell you
How I see it
Cause I know that
We can make another start
That is why

I was your baby
Said I drove you crazy
Said that you needed me
More than life itself
I took it in
You made me feel love again
You took me deeper than
I've ever been
But in my heart of hearts
Something told me that
This was too good to be true
I wanted to be wrong
I wanted my heart to trust you
Chorus:
Why do I always fall for love
Always fall for love
With the kind of lover
That doesn't want to fall in love
Always fall for love
Always fall for love
With the kind of lover
That doesn't want to fall in love
You were sweet
In your arms I was complete
Every minute by your side -
I was satisfied
You gave me what I needed
Lonely nights were gone
Tell me what went wrong
I thought that it would work this time
But it seems that you were never really mine
I wanted to be wrong
I wanted us to be one
Repeat chorus
Always the one
Who makes mistakes
Always the one
Who's heart will break
Why do I fall in love
With you
na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na
Over the hills and far away
Into a land unknown
That's where she'll run from time to time
To a place where she feels at home
There's no rhyme or reason
To where she might be
But one way of knowing
Just one way to see
When she smiles
Look in her eyes
And she will take you there
She'll take you anywhere
take you anywhere
And for a while
You're side by side
Sharing the ride with her
And you will understand
You'll see
Why she's so beautiful.... to me
And though
Meeting her makes you feel lonely
You'll give her your heart and she's only passing by
She'll spend some time to see your light of day
But shines so bright she will turn away
And you'll try and fail to make her stay
But still, she makes it worth your while
When she smiles
Look in her eyes
And she will take you there
She'll take you anywhere
take you anywhere
And for a while
You're side by side
Sharing the ride with her
And you will understand
You'll see
Why she's so beautiful to me
When she smiles
Look in her eyes
she will take you there
na na na na na na na na
And for a while
You're side by side
Sharing the ride with her
And you will understand
You'll see
Are you serious man?
The ice in the chain man, the ice in the watch
They must not know who I be!
We got the hood Preston in the building
"Don't start nuttin,' won't be nuttin!"
He's back!
You can't shine like me, you ?ain't no? rider like me
Pull dimes like me, if you ain't from the streets
I'm a hood star, you know who I'm is (ehh-ah!)
I rock big ice, you can't live how I live (ehh-ah!)
Geah, ten karats on my earlobes, chick!
BBS on my wrist, twenty karats on my neck
While y'all slidin' in the lil' bitty 06 'Vette
I'm waitin' on the runway for my G4 Jet
I'm ahead of the game, you see you boys got next
Did a lil' bit of actin' just ta stack a few chips
I ain't gotta remind y'all, how the game go
I'm the youngest wit a clothin line, first wit a TV show
I ain't in the pros and I got three Black cards! (three?)
Call the Saints ova, they can practice in the backyard (Maaaan!)
I do it big, I guess I say I'm just the best at it (at it)
Had a mil' early man, I been learn my mathematics (heh, heh)
Uh, aw, oh, two, coped an '06
Boy stop stunnin' if I want her, I can have ya chick (what'd he say?)
Don't get it twisted Richie Rich so gutta
Youse a momma's boy, I'm the son of a hustla
See me; I'm so fly, an I'm different from them other brothers
Only sixteen and I don't, live home wit mother
Me, I keep it real! Don't believe, you can ask my brother
Kids poppin they grillz in, they think they gettin tougher
They tryna take off they shirts think they gettin buffer
I'm benchin' one-eighty and that's just wit one muscle (just one)
I see dudes tryna act like me, be like me
Dawg, even dress like me? NOOO!
Ya not me and there won't be anotha
Skip dat; let me get to the jewels and da cuddle
So many rocks on my hand, got me feelin like a hustla
Got a wizard on ya hands kinda like a Ron Butler
Who me? I just learn from the best hood star
Down South wit a mansion on the West, yes!
I got a Bentley that I don't even drive
and I just bought a Phantom just to see how it ride
Young V, check the six time zone
Throw away ya lil' jewlery, all dat fake rhinestone

Look, ice in my mouth, I'm so country and gutta
I'ma hood star Rich Boy number one hustla

You dudes slow, I don't eva see you catchin up on me
You way below sea level, me I'm steppin' on the beach
No reach I'm ahead a you, my houses is all in {?}

There's only one thing on your mind
It's written all over your face, baby
So tell me what's the point of wasting time
I know you got a scheduled appointment with (my body, my body)
I got a scheduled appointment with (your body, your body)
Don't worry, I know what time it is, girl
Damn, I gotta win her
But she's no sinner
If it was up to me
I'd have her every night for dinner
Met her last summer
We going on november
If she's a playmate
Then I'm guessing she'll be miss december
I swear to god I love her
I swear to god I need her
If it was up to me
I would never ever leave her
But she's no believer
More of a realist
And every day I tell her
Babe, baby you're the illest
You got that bread pudding
Them baked cookies
I love her cookie jaw
She's got the best goodies
She go to school for law
But she like to play doctor
Never sick but I'm scheduled forever
Chorus:
There's only one thing on your mind
It's written all over your face, baby
So tell me what's the point of wasting time
I know you got a scheduled appointment with (my body, my body)
I got a scheduled appointment with (your body, your body)
Don't worry, I know what time it is, girl
I'm on my g5 flying 'cross the indian ocean
Wishin' you was here with me while I'm really hoping
Missed my last appointment, matter of fact the last two
We need to reschedule, I'm well overdue
You my princess, you get what I give
Low down, place, nice cars, ice sprees
You're the boss girl,
Louis it is, gucci it is
You're the daddy's girl,
Nice ass, nice lips
I love to make you laugh
I love to make you smile
You're on pacific top
How about I'll fly you down?
I know you girls witched
Black booked em two
We touching down in tokyo
I see you later, boo
[Chorus:]
You know what time it is, baby?
You know what time it is, baby?
You know what time it is, baby?
I'll be your romeo

It's a love story, baby just say yes
Romeo save me, they try to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby just say 'yes'
I'm your Romeo
You was my scarlet letter (yeah)
I'm the best at what I do, but you made me better
And I guess that I made you wetter
Our theme song, Rihanna's 'Um-brella'
(Aha) We were young when we first met
Throwin' pebbles on your balcony I never slept (no!)
Mm, you're daddy told me to stay away
You's a Cali's girl, who the hell he think pays?
Juliet tell me somewhere we can be alone
We could run away, somewhere far from home
I'd be the prince, you'd be my princess
This is a love story, baby just sayyy-
Romeo ('yes') save me
Yes, you the best girl
Romeo save me
You the best, you the best girl
Romeo save me
You the best, you the best girl
Romeo save me
Juliet you're the best, you're the best girl
And I said
Romeo save me, I've been feelin' so (yeah) alone
You're the best, you're the best girl
I keep waiting (Juliet, you're the best best) for you but you never come
Juliet, you're the best best
Romeo save me (Juliet, you're the best best), I've been feelin' so alone
You're the best, you're the best girl
I keep waiting (Juliet, you're the best best) for you but you never come
[Romeo: talking]

And why turn you white shirt all Burgundy
If you a real man take it to the ring wit me
[Hook]
[Verse:]
Kill is in my blood, nothin but thugs
So when I roll through your hood Gs show me love
And I aint have to hustle Well maybe just a little

My pockets real fat lookin like Puffy Pack
Got the china dog layin up in the Lack
Baby Shaq thats what I call those

Your girl here wit me she aint got it ha
But enough jokes this aint the late show

Lips like Megan Good
Hey you a school girl

She grinding slow now
Forget first base I'm about to catch a touchdown

I'm liking a girl that shake the thang
Up in bokini
She was a boqueeny
I'm trying to holla at her
I mean it
Holy mama yea fine yea no
Wanna see yea back it up and jiggalate on the floor

You a big fine woman then take that thing
Now wobble out

Trying to find me a chick wit a face like Christina
and butt like Buffy but a freak like Adiana

Yes, go on let me see yea work it quick
Girl I'm wit my click

Young Rome getting grown
So its on me
Another telephone to keep up with all these Stalliones
See Blakk on the track making history
Ex specially when Rome told Chip to make the beat

Plus she look like a biscuit when you walk past me
Why don't you try over here
Ma your to far off
I'm on a mission trying to get your drawers off
Lets just say she like me
When she see ridden big
She gonna love me in the morning
Dreams of love
My secret is with you
I think of how our love could be
but all my friends say i'm a fool
I don't care
What people have to say
When ever I can I'll be there for you I'm sure I'll find a way
What ever u do don't break my heart
Where ever you go we're never part
Cause I know our love is strong enough
And you'll always be my secret love
You and I
It's like the book of love
I must have read a thousand pages
but it seems it's not enough
I, wish I
could give the world to you
and when I see a falling star I will make that wish come true
What ever u do don't break my heart
Where ever you go we're never part
Cause I know our love is strong enough
And you'll always be my secret love
Out of Luck
Out of Hand
Make me understand

And y'all just in little leagues, yea
Why play hard when y'all cats is practice
Half kid, half amazing

Keep a camera man cause y'all dudes is actors

Light brothers out
Well I think they back into em
Got your girl trying to read me like a psychic

Hey I got that crack money

You better grab your chick got me on the cell phone
Hormones rising yea you better take your girl home
From the south but get hiffy like the BANG
Real dudes lean back and do what the hook say
I'm C-los I'm about to step up
In this game and spit a message
If all these fake thugs
little test they'd get an F
I'm all on the screen
Will still get respect
Ain't chewing on no bubble gum
But grill still is the freshest
I'm an animal don't meet me
I'll have to handle you
And open up a can of you
I ain't talk about no Cambell Soup
Still won't beef
I'll meet two people
who look and handle you
My chain stay flashing
Same as a little camera do
No you don't stand a chance
My diamonds make a you half glance
Don't talk to loud around me
All this ice will cause an avalanche
Me, I'm a handful
Plus another gutta gutta
Ride with the plucka plucka
Theres ain't anotha brotha
Like a crash
Like Micheal Jackson
House a giant mansion
Just imagine people staring
Say watch my star mansion
King T lows, chain hang low
And my mouth resemble skittles
There was nothing to say, the day she left,
Just filled the suitcase full of regrets.
I hailed a taxi in the rain,
Looking for some place to ease the pain.
Then like an answered prayer,
I turned around and found you there.
Chorus:
You really know where to start,
Fixing my broken heart.
You really know what to do,
Your emotional tools,
Can cure any fool,
Whose dreams have fallen apart
Fixing a broken heart.
Now I don't understand, what I'm going through.
There must be a plan, that led me to you,
Because the hurt just disappears,
In every moment that you are near.
Just like an answered prayer,
You make the loneliness easy to bear.
You really know where to start,
Fixing my broken heart.
You really know what to do,
Your emotional tools,
Can cure any fool,
Whose dreams have fallen apart
Fixing a broken heart.
Soon the rain will stop falling baby,
And I'll forget the past,
Cause here we are at last.
Chorus(slightly different):
You really know where to start,
Fixing a broken heart. <-- this line the "a" is "my" is prev. chorus
You really know what to do,
Your emotional tools,
Can cure any fool,
Whose dreams have fallen apart
Fixing a broken heart.

I said he's coming for ya x 3
Listen- You step foot in the rave it's pitch black dark
The beat beats at the same time as your heart
Holler, your brain is saying to get the hell out
But when you first stepped in the rave your brain fell
It goes deeper, ear drums are blown by the speaker
Your brain moves slow because of the deeper
You smoke before the rave plays a creeper
That will teach ya and I'm like a creature, I will eat
PRE-CHORUS
Yo, who's there? Somebody's calling me
Yo, who's there? Somebody's following me
Yo, who's there? Somebody's haunting me, somebody's
haunting me
CHORUS
Just wait till the Ju Ju man comes for you (it' Mera)
Me, myself and my voodoo crew
You just don't know
(repeat)
You're walking home and you wonder why this lighting
strikes
It sounds of thunder you're under, You look up and you
see no stars
Walking down the street you see no cars, clubs are
empty so are the bars
It's insane- Lighting, thunder but no rain- the streets
just ain't the same
Footsteps behind ya starting to gain
You turn around but there's no-one around, it's messing
with you brain
Speed the bass up, feel a shiver running down your
spine from your waist up
Stop- Look at your shoes, you need to lace up before
you trip up
And take a trip to the floor with your clothes rip up
PRE-CHORUS
Yo, who's there? Somebody's calling me
Yo, who's there? Somebody's following me
Yo, who's there? Somebody's haunting me, somebody's
haunting me
CHORUS
Just wait till the Ju Ju man comes for you (it' Mera)
Me, myself and my voodoo crew
You just don't know
(repeat)
Again
Oh no- The colour of my eyes turn red
Oh no- I can't tell if I'm alive or dead
Oh no- Somebody be messing with my head
Oh no- It's killing off all my street cred x 2
As it enters you spine and the bass makes you whine
Resonate in your mind like the scene from a crime
It pleads over and over, again and again
Like the movie starts and it just won't end
Taking over your body you're losing control
When you think that it's safe but you just don't know
And the last thing that you hear was his voice in your
ear, with a message of fear
Just wait.. x 3
CHORUS
Just wait till the Ju Ju man comes for you (it' Mera)
Me, myself and my voodoo crew
You just don't know
(repeat)
PRE-CHORUS
Yo, who's there? Somebody's calling me

Why play games she know that Im frontin
Well it aint hard too look in that new 600
The way she move them hips got my heart straight runnin
Whole body move like she got an upset stomach
Took them heels off and she run bare footed
I swear she move just like that girl from goodies
I wanna make her mine but its like she knew it
The whisper song came on and she got into it
So I just P game yea she's something exotic
The whole club bouncin gettin bout it bout
Far from a playa but Im somethin like it
I see you wit me but Im far from a psychic
[Hook x2: Romeo]

And I holla Im a gutta no limit frontline soldier
We can shake the spot (yea) we gon take the drop
My secret spot (yea) introduce you to my yacht
She like oh fo sho and do you got some smoke
I say I got the goods whatever floats your boat

Up in they cant see behind the 5 percent
Sheets was a little hizzy I put it in the air
She gave me some breeze without touchin my hair
Yea its Gs Up get your Gs Up yall know when u see us
[Hook x2: Romeo]
[Verse: Silkk the Shocker]
Take a ride with a playa put you up on game
Show you a few things how to spot out the lane
See Im never gon change I remain the same
Im make Jacob Abra, Vera Wayne
See to me it aint nothin real to a boss
Only wanna worry about it, if they cant afford what it cost
Cause even right now Im so strange
Cuz I went from havin no change to da off white Phantom like cocaine
New coop for my new boot, pockets look like JJ
Now all of a sudden she doin it big like Bruce Spruce
Rock the latest shit think want baby want baby get
But Im a grown man I aint got time to baby-sit
I aint got time to worry about who the hell baby wit
Cause if she aint right Im throwin em back like 86
And yea this nigga crazy rich
But plus Im good in the bedroom like Al Green greatest hits
Remember this...
I remember when, let me turn back time on Big Ben,
let me tell you about the story from start to end,
release the ink from my ballpoint pen, when it touches the page,
it reveals the message that I send,
are you listening, let me tell you about my first and only christening,
my eyes all glistening, with the innocence of a blank page,
life is like a blank page, enjoy the beef, the strife, the rage,
wait... let me turn the page and continue to verbally burn the page,
with fire flows that are capable of burning down the stage,
Remember when we used to say, aint always gonna be this way
from lemonade to alize, its all gravy, baby.
Remember when we used to say, aint always gonna be this way
from lemonade to alize, its all gravy, baby...
Back in my school days, they was the cool days, school was the good old days now,
I tend to leave my teachers amazed they never knew my hard work paved the way,
when I talk about back in the days, the hard life, everything will be all gravy,
if I play my cards right, thats right, mother said keep close friends tight,
keep frienemies in the distance, in the night,
wait... let me turn the page and continue to verbally burn the page,
with fire flows that are capable of burning down the stage,
Baby, baby,
Boy you told me not to worry 'cause it's gonna be all gravy,
Boy you told me not to worry 'cause it's gonna be all gravy baby
The more money you make, the more money you make, its all gravy,

Cause if you look back at any great

You know I like to walk like you, like you
That's why I talk like you, like you whoody whooo
[Lil' Romeo]
When I grow up I wanta be just like you
Eat drink sleep whatever, just like you
Finish school cause bein a fool ain't cool
When I walk past them same corners just like you
I got hopes and dreams
By the time I'm thirteen I wanta tote around the whole world
Know what I mean?
I play ball like you used to crawl like you
I had 36 the other day, I even score like you, walk like you, talk you
Everything I do my friends say remind me of you
It's you, who made me act like I do
It was you who told me what I could and couldn't do
Never told me no, just advised me of what to do
Kept me bouncin balls as I recall the age of two, shootin freethrows
Okay I made a few
Dad where you at? I need you in the booth
[Chorus: Lil' Romeo, repeat 2x]
[Master P]
It's a family thing, so I got your back
I mean we teammates son like Kobe and Shaq
And when your momma tell you somethin I mean listen to her whodi
Respect your elders that what your granpa told me
I mean times have change we growin up together
The first father and son to rap and blow up together
Blood is thicker than water
I know you tougher than leather
But I be on you cause I want you to do better
I done been on these streets, I done lived that life
I mean why do wrong and you can do right
Say no to drugs
Education goes far
You can be a doctor lawyer politician or star
You wanta be like me son then make me proud
And when you get that diploma don't forget to smile
[Chorus: Lil' Romeo, repeat 2x]
[Lil' Romeo]
Yo pops you tha one

Cause when it's all said and done, we all we got
[Romeo: talking]
You know man
This one right here is
for anyone who cared for me
or was there for me
Life funny man
You go through your little ups and downs
Smiles and frowns
This one here is coming from the heart
And the reason I keep going
Is cause of you
[Verse 1: Romeo]
It's another R-O
Look, growing up I didn't have much
Just a few bucks
Hit school new sneakers but no lunch
Pops told me son I never give up
Before you know it, west coast in that new truck
Seeing things kinda like I'm in a dream
Why the sky always blue
Why the grass always green
I'm like Luther I have a dream
To be an A-Student and the star of the team
I miss Lance lost my boy in the car wreck
Money, have my money coming greener then that boy strait
Little Fred I know your working up there
Talk, fear no man, I got the man upstairs
Jumped in the game not knowing if I make it
Felt like I'm lost outside naked
Before you know it had my own little necklace
Went on the road and had my own little guest list
Big money now I'm son like a superstar
My nights get lonely never knew it would be this hard
I'm a solider it runs in my blood
You see p , silkk, and nothing but thugs
I love my fans and your love so priceless
I'd do anything for you with the heart out my chest
Through the ups and downs
Through the smiles and frowns
You was around and I feel so blessed
[Hook:]
Won't Stop, Can't Stop, Won't Stop
It's another R-O
Won't Stop, Can't Stop, Won't Stop
My life ain't complete if I ain't got you hugs
To all my fans down south all thugs need love
My life ain't complete if I ain't got you hugs
To all my fans on the west all thugs need love
My life ain't complete if I ain't got you hugs
To my fans on the east all thugs need love
My life ain't complete if I ain't got you hugs
To all my fans up top all thugs need love
Won't Stop, Can't Stop, Won't Stop
It's another R-O
Won't Stop, Can't Stop, Won't Stop
[Verse 2: Romeo]
Young Buck's on the block
With then Cuggy Swins
No lemonade
Just rocks
Yea we change the weather
Moms put a rock in my hand made a boy understand
You can do something with your life
Be a better man
I love what you did for me
So the hood that I got is eternally
Now all you gotta do is relax
Your son hooked you up
In the back of the crib theres a brand new may-back
You heard that my ump-back
Senior would love
The three brothers back together
We got the hood back
Won't Stop, Can't Stop
Thats my gimmick
The way I kill tracks you would think I was a menace
Pops put in the pool head first
Now I'm swimming
Gutta music on the chain
But I'm still no limit
I love my fans
Ya'll the reason why I'm winning
And they wonder why I walk around town always grinning
Uh-huh-uh

G's Up
You scared, you scared, you, you, you scared

Born from another plant

Never wife her just one night her

Hes the type of guy that you wanna be with.
Romeo,
Hes the kind that you know you can creep with.
Romeo,
Hes the type of guy that you wanna get deep with.
Take away 2 from 3, that leaves me,
I'll leave you running wet just like the sea,
If there's a door give me the key,
I'll push it in, twist it around and run free,
Mmmm,
Give me the number to your mobile phone,
So I can send you a mobile tone,
While you're at it give me the keys and address to your home,
People call me Romeo, you can call me Ro Me Yo.
You look hot like Jamaica,
I'll strip off your underwear cos I'm the undertaker,
Romeo original first move maker,
When you see the girls bumpa, shaker,
I'm telling ya, I'm feeling ya when I'm stealing ya,
From the fella at home that's mistreating ya,
Fellas dont forget how much a woman's worth to ya,
A woman went through pain and gave birth to ya.
Get deep with,
Get deep with,
And he knows it,
Get deep with.
Let me flip this verse and big up the envious people,
Holding me back when I'm climbing the steeple,
People don't be evil,
I'm doing it legal, I'm doing it legal,
People don't be evil to a casual fella just trying to get by,
Why you watching me with the envious eye?
I dunno why, you are the weakest link, (goodbye),
Support what we're doing, give it try,
Listen to the heavyweight beat that could never be light,
I'm gonna be shining up in the sky like a bright light,
I'm gonna be popular like a Lennox Lewis fight night,
It's gonna be alright cos tonight's the night, the right night,
To big up the girls that look good on the regular,
I'm telling ya, I'm feeling ya when I'm belling ya on your cellular,
Double R come with the phat track,
Romeo will attack that,
Radio will back that verse that I just spat.
Get deep with,
Get deep with,
And he knows it,
Get deep with.
Now I'm riding in big cars, rolling with big superstars,
Smoking till my eyes go red like the colour of Mars,
Overweight bills look at the bars,
who made the beat? It's Double R,
Who sang the chorus? Female superstars,
Go by the name of Lisa Maffia, Thug Angel, Tiger S,
Who came from the streets, we all grew up in the same birds nest,
They be my So Solid sisters,
(Yes and we ent gonna settle for nothing less),
This verse for he people that's feeling my lyrical style,
That drives them wild with a smile that runs a mile,
(Romeo Dunn), my voice shall be back in a while,
(Romeo Dunn, Romeo Dunn).
Get deep with,
Get deep with,
And he knows it,
Get deep with.
(Im G-U-T-T-A)

Earlobe of karrots
Bank rolls of cabage

Tall model chicks with to the prettiest faces

Stay tacked for them jacks

Break it up like fist fights
And push it all the way through
Let my chick set sail like my bro's on a cruise

Grow weed in Louisiana animals

Get money, get Cash
Let them haters hate
Now I'm on the blocking pumping bass
Oh oh oh oh ohhhh
[Verse 1:]
It seems like you wanna be alone when you don't answer your phone...
You got me sitting here thinking bout it, about it like I should know...
Now my mind is all frustrated becoz I don't know what you want
Baby girl I'm tryna come see it, but you won't let me come see what's wrong,

[Chorus:]
Baby the system is breakin down
Oh girl you gotta tell me right now

I'm gon do what mama said
But ya'll ain't gonna tell me how to live my life
I might be young but I got bread
I'm straight form the hood so I ain't afraid
Pops was a hustler even sold drugs
So it was only right that his son be a thug
Girls show me love and these niggas just mug
I'm the prince on the block
And I never sold drugs
H-O-O-D that's were I rep
Gotta keep the g up
White tee I got prep
Most thugs don't dance they just 1, 2 step
Pops danced with that stars
Yea he changed all that
Fear no man I'm the meaning of a beast
God's Gift to this earth teach others like a priest
The game is looking tasty and I think its time to feast
Don't rock adidas only P. Miller on the feet
Hard to sleep hearing bullets on the east
Hang with gorillas don't blend wit the streets
Mama said never give up you can make it
God blessed you don't let them haters take it
Mama said whatever don't kill you will make you stronger baby
But that's hard to believe when kids going crazy
A ghetto in the sky I think why to belive it
What about Santa what about Jesus
That's how I felt when I lost little Fred
Crazy how all the good guys end up dead
These need to stop all the pictures in my head
Martin Luther in my dreams with a bullet in his head
Brought up by a solider
I can't be scared
Got the whole hood behind me and the man upstairs
Life's like a test you know your gon stress
People think they know you best
Let the pain off your chest
Do you, never follow the rest
I making millions never got in know mess
Hater said this, hater said that
Through the ups and the downs
Standing at your doorstep darlin'
what can I do
you're a part of me forever
like a troublesome tattoo
I lay awake at night
curse your name into the dark
while the memory of you rings
like a church bell through my heart
then a cold rain starts to fall
Oh Romeo
remember how we'd listen to the radio
when the girls sang
æµaby baby you know it's true
ain't no one in this world for me but youbr>
Now I'm a believer darlin'
I believe in heaven above
and when I look in your eyes
I believe I still see love
well maybe I will never know
just why you walked away
did you think I wasn't good enough
or were you just afraid
of the cold rain that's fallen
all around us now
Oh Romeobr>
Now I'm living here in Chelsea
In somebody else's arms
got a ring around my finger
diamond snake around my arm
don't know if he knows
about you darlin'
I don't even care
sometimes he pretend to reach for me
and I pretend I'm there
while that cold rain
has fallen all around us now
listen
Oh Romeo
remember how we'd listen to the radio
when the girls sang
æµaby baby you know it's true
ain't no one in this world for me but youbr>
well there is no one
Lost in emotion
deep in ur ocean of lies
foolish me almost didn't see
your honesty disguise
cuz ur words sputter out in a ball of confusion
that gives the illusion that u might be sincere
but ur not really here
cuz ur minds in the gutter and im not that stupid
Romeo, lay down ur ego
cuz deep inside is a color u can't hide
who u are is the way u speak of others
no im not ur lover
im just a grl u lied to for the last time
cuz it feels like emotional breakdown from somebody
livin in a dream world
wishin on juliet, hasn't got a dime yet
fishin for lines u sound so tired
Romeo lay down ur ego
cuz deep inside is a color u cna't hide who u are is the way u speak of others no im not ur
lover just a grl u lied to for the last time
and the workd that u say that u say that u say they just het in the way in the way in the way
of being for real
Romeo lay down ur ego baby
cuz deep inside is a fool u can't hide
who u are is the way u speak of others
How many times have I said I’m sorry,
Somebody needs to let you know
I would go anywhere to find you, anywhere, just let me know.
I’m on my way to California, although they said ‘it isn’t for you.’
I am the face you hide underneath, I am Romeo in blue jeans.
How many times for you to figure out
What this life is all about, and I take the time to meet you here.
What do you want to know?
Could you stay up, up all night?
Could you believe in me, won’t you believe in me?
Could you stay up, up all night?
You and me taking our time to take our time.
Walls get built around us. Can’t believe your parents haven’t found us.
I drove all day just find your address, can we roll across the mattress?
I am the one you swore you’d never leave,
Your fingers crossed right next to me
I swear I wonder what this means, if you and I could ever be..
How many times will it take to find you,
I wish I was the one that inspired you.
If you dream of ways to throw this all away…
Could you stay up, up all night?
Could you believe in me, won’t you believe in me?
Could you stay up, up all night?
You and me taking our time to take our time.
Is anybody out there screaming ‘don’t close your eyes.’
If you’re ever sleeping..
Could you stay up, up all night?
Won’t you believe in me?
How many times will it take to find you,
I wish I was the one that inspired you.
If you dream of ways to throw this all away…
Could you stay up, up all night?
Won’t you believe in me, won’t you believe in me?
Could you stay up, up all night?
You and me taking our time to take our time.
I dreamed a thousand times for you.
Woke up and you were gone.
Yeah, he looks just like a young Mel Gibson
He's got great cheek bones,
and sure I'll admit it
I wish i saw him first
You've known him now for a whole 2 weeks
do you really think you otta give em that key,
to your apartment
well he could be a good lookin serial killer,
for all you know
He says he comes from money
but he'd rather make it on his own
[CHORUS]
your dreamin to fast
your thinkin with your heart
you got a whole team a horses ahead of your cart
your common sense went south,
your out of control
Dont beleive all you hear (dont)
do all you can (dont)
give all you have (dont)
tell all you know
your gonna bet the farm on romeo
so this summer hes gonna take ya to Paris
and your credit card
bought the clothes he's wearin'
now how does that work..
I do admir your enthusiasm
I'm sure your right when it comes to passion
hes a love machine
do you need to defold all the details of your past
and that sexy picture you gave them,
now whats he gonna do with that
CHORUS
oh dont be mad
I like tattoos
but come on,
do you, really think you need one too
Although he knew that he shouldn’t have
Billy had the time of his life
She made him drinks from her surest hand
And soon he was drunk
He played the fields in the finest hour
Dancing in the heat of the sun
They stayed together hand in hand
Oh could be love
Slow down there Romeo
Let the wind pick up your sails
Wait and see for the summertime
If the sun will melt her veil
While the love you share is the bottom line
The rest is up for sale,
So don’t save the world, just say you love her
And, la li la li la li la
The fire she kept for him in her eyes
Billy knew that he could get burned
Get hypnotized by a strange delight
He burned… and he burned
He sung the tune of a thousand men
Being in the heat of his prime
He sold his pride for a dollar ten
I think it's gonna be you and I all alone
Let's take advantage of this night
Play some sexy music
You'll be six and I'll be nine
Just taste a little sample of my love
While I sip yours
I'll play the role of Romeo
Be my Juliet and we can do it all night long
* I just wanna share my world with you
There's no other girl I'd rather do
** Lemme be your Romeo for one night
If the mood is right
You're the castle that I call my home
No need to be alone
Lemme be your Romeo for one night
If the feeling's right
I wanna love your body all night long
Why don't you bring it on
Now baby, are you ready for love
Just come along (play with me)
I'll lick your body if you want me to
Tell me your fantasy, there's nothing I wouldn't do
And I won't stop 'til I hear you scream, if you know what I mean
I'll be your sex machine, do I sound obscene?
I'll be your Romeo, you'll be my Juliet
And I'll go downtown if you're down
(pre-hook* & hook**)
I've been waiting for this special moment baby
When our bodies become one
(open yourself to me)
And I will satisfy your every need babe
Let's play games, you and I
Show me where the treasure lies (2x)
Uno, dos, tres, quatro!
Oh Romeo, where do you have your Juliet now?
Oh Romeo, where do you have your girlfriend now?
You used to be the one everyone wanted to be
(Everybody wanted to be)
You used to be the one and only for those girls
But look at you!
Chours
Oh Romeo, where do you have your Juliet?
Romeo where's your girlfriend? (x2)
You never thought somebody like her would come in your
You never thought, no, your lady in chains could walk
out on you
Yesterdays flowers they don't mean much now
(Flowers they don't mean a thing)
You treated her just like dirt and now it's too late
So look at you
Chorus
I know you know the lady was a 10 out of 10
She was a knockout!
Everybody knew about the 2 of you
And why a son of a gun like you let her go
If you can't treat your lady with respect
(You're not a true man for her)
Hand her over to real men, to somebody who cares
Who respect her!
Oh Romeo, where do you have your Juliet?
Romeo, wheres your girlfriend?
Where is your little pretty girlfriend?
Oh Romeo, how could you do this to her?
Romeo, oooh-o-oooh, Romeo! (x2)

The balcony scene in Romeo and Juliet as depicted by Ford Madox Brown in an 1870 painting. |

Creator | William Shakespeare |
Play | Romeo and Juliet |
Family | Juliet (wife) Montague (father) Lady Montague (mother) Benvolio (cousin) |

Role | Protagonist |
Romeo is one of the title characters in William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Romeo is the son of old Montague and his wife, who secretly loves and marries Juliet, a member of the rival House of Capulet. Forced into exile by his slaying of Tybalt, Juliet's cousin, in a duel, Romeo commits suicide upon hearing falsely of Juliet's death.
The character's origins can be traced as far back as Pyramus, who appears in Ovid's Metamorphoses, but the first modern incarnation of Romeo is Mariotto in the 33rd of Masuccio Salernitano's Il Novellino (1476). This story was adapted by Luigi da Porto as Giulietta e Romeo (1530), and Shakespeare's main source was an English verse translation of this text by Arthur Brooke.[1] Although both Salernitano and da Porto claimed that their stories had historical basis, there is little evidence that this is the case.
Romeo is one of the most important characters of the play, and has a consistent presence throughout it. His role as an idealistic lover has led the word "Romeo" to become a synonym for a passionate male lover in various languages. Although often treated as such, it is not clear that "Montague" is a surname in the modern sense.

The earliest tale bearing a resemblance to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is Xenophon of Ephesus' Ephesiaca, whose hero is a Habrocomes.The character of Romeo is also similar to that of Pyramus in Ovid's Metamorphoses, a youth who is unable to meet the object of his affection due to an ancient family quarrel, and later kills himself due to mistakenly believing her to have died.[2] Although it is unlikely that Shakespeare directly borrowed from Ovid while writing Romeo and Juliet, the story was likely an influence on the Italian writers who the playwright was greatly indebted to.[3] The two sources which Shakespeare most likely consulted himself are Brookes' translation of de Porta and W. Painter's The goodly historye of the true, and constant Love between Rhomeo and Iulietta.[1]
Romeo first appears in the play in the first scene, shortly after the brawl between the Montagues and the Capulets. As a young man, he is rash and quite easily distempered. As a general rule, he is a mirror image of Juliet, being urged to marry by his father. He is overly eager, especially because he is infatuated with Rosaline, who is uninterested in him due to her commitment to chastity.[4] His cousin Benvolio (who is related by his divorced mother's new husband), wishing to distract him from his romantic plight, presumably to gain Rosaline's favour, takes him and his friend Mercutio, uninvited and disguised, to a feast at the house of the Capulets.[5] There he meets and falls in love with Juliet, the daughter of Lord and Lady Capulet.[6] However, this was not merely infatuation, but true love, as Romeo explicitly states that loves Rosaline, but the two talk and indeed fall in love, as Romeo also is noted to find Juliet less than beautiful. This however changes and Romeo learns to see the beauty in his true love (as opposed to infatuation with Rosaline, Shakespeare's method of adding contrast). Romeo again meets her after the feast, as she laments her love for him from her balcony.[7] Through a meeting with Juliet's Nurse, Romeo arranges for them to be married secretly by Friar Lawrence.[8] When Tybalt, Juliet's cousin, insults Romeo in the streets the next day, he is prevented by his now familial relation with Tybalt from defending his honour.[9] His friend Mercutio, exasperated by this, fights Tybalt, and is killed by him.[10] Romeo, seeking revenge, kills Tybalt, which results in him being exiled from the city by the Prince.[11] He leaves the next morning, having consummated his marriage with Juliet. Juliet, whose father intends to marry her to an aristocrat, Paris, unbeknownst to Romeo takes a potion, provided by Friar Lawrence, which places her in a death-like coma.[12] She is therefore buried, and a messenger is sent to Romeo to tell him that Juliet is in fact alive, who unfortunately is unable to reach him to due to the plague.[13] Romeo, genuinely believing Juliet to be dead, travels to her grave, where he meets and kills Paris.[14] When he sees her body, he kills himself, moments before she awakes; when Juliet sees that Romeo is dead, she kills herself in turn shortly thereafter.[15] The tragedy leads to the end of the feud between the two families.[16]

Anthony "Romeo" Santos (born July 21, 1981) is an American singer, featured composer and former lead singer of the Bachata group Aventura. As a member of Aventura, Santos has been a key figure in popularizing Bachata, with hits reaching near the top of the Billboard Latin charts and the top of charts in Europe. In 2002, the band's song "Obsesión" was number one in Italy for sixteen consecutive weeks.[1]
Santos was born in The Bronx, New York, United States to a Argentinian father and a Puerto-Rican mother. At twelve years of age, he became a member of the church choir. While the group performs in both English and Spanish, their work was widely ignored by the English-language media during the early part of their career.[1] On May 9, 2011, Santos released his first single, "You", from his upcoming solo debut album, Formula.[2] The song became a number-one debut on the Hot Latin Songs and Tropical Songs chart.[3] The second single revealed from his album was "Promise" which features a duet with Usher.[4] The single has peaked at number #1 on the Hot Latin Songs chart and number one on the Tropical Songs chart.[5]

Mario Alberto Domínguez Zarzar (born January 22, 1977), known professionally as Mario Domm, is a Mexican pop singer and songwriter. Born and raised in Torreón, in the Mexican state of Coahuila, he enrolled in various performing arts schools, where he studied singing on stage.[1] Domm rose to fame in the late 2000s as the lead singer of the band Camila.
Domm's début solo album Mexi-Funk-Music (2002), from which came the singles "Disco Amor", "Quiero" and "Si Te Vas", was not successful. After this debut, Domm devoted himself to writing and producing songs for other artists such as Kalimba, OV7, Alejandra Guzmán, Magneto and Reyli Barba. In 2006, Domm formed the band Camila with Samuel "Samo" Parra and Pablo Hurtado, releasing the album Todo Cambió, which became a number-one album in Mexico and the United States. Camila presented another number-one album in 2010, entitled Dejarte de Amar, which earned them three Latin Grammy Awards including Record of the Year and Song of the Year.
Domm had a number-one hit in the United States with the single "Causa y Efecto", performed by Mexican singer Paulina Rubio, and four top-ten hits with Camila ("Todo Cambió", "Mientes", "Aléjate de Mi" and "Bésame").[2][3] Billboard listed Domm as the fourth most successful Latin songwriter of 2000.[4]

In 1993, Domm joined Mexican rock band Dulce Ana, getting radio airplay with a song called "Arboles Gigantes", which gave them the opportunity to play along with Café Tacuba and Santa Sabina.[5] Domm also worked as a keyboardist for the Mexican group OV7.[6]
The album Aerosoul by Kalimba was produced by Domm, Áureo Baqueiro, Edgar Oceransky and Sebastián Arocha. The first single, "No Me Quiero Enamorar", written by Kalimba, Domm and Oceransky, became a top-ten hit in the United States.[7] The following single "Tocando Fondo", also written by Domm with Erik Guecha, spent 18 weeks in the Billboard charts.[8][9] Later there was another successful album, En la Luna, produced by Domm for fellow Mexican singer-songwriter Reyli. Samuel Parra "Samo" performed the backing vocals for the album.[10] En la Luna peaked at number 16 in the Billboard Top Latin Albums and sold a half-million units worldwide.[11][12] Domm also produced "Desde Que Llegaste" for Barba. The song was included on the soundtrack for the Mexican film Ladies' Night, which sold 120,000 units in Mexico helped by the success of the song.[1][11][13] The album also included "Si Te Vas" performed by Domm.[13]
Domm co-wrote three songs for Mexican singer Alejandra Guzmán for her album Indeleble (2006).[14] The first single, "Volverte a Amar", written by Domm and Guzmán, became the first number-one single for the singer in over 15 years in Mexico and also her highest peak in the Billboard Top Latin Songs chart, reaching number six and number-one in the Latin Pop Airplay chart.[14][15] The song received a Latin Grammy Award nomination for Best Rock Song.[16] "Necesito Amarme", another song written by Domm for Guzmán, was included on the soundtrack for the Mexican film Asi del Precipicio.[17] Also in 2006, Domm produced two songs for Mexican band Sin Bandera, "Será" and "Si Tu No Estás Aquí".[1]
During the recording of En la Luna by Reyli Barba, Domm met Samuel "Samo" Parra. Impressed by Parra's vocals, Domm invited him to join forces to create a new project.[10] They began rehearsing with a piano and decide to add a guitarist to the newly created band. Pablo Hurtado, the first one to audition, was selected.[10] The band was named Camila, meaning "close to god", as the "appropriate thanks to the granting of the group's collective dream."[18] The band released in 2006 their début album entitled Todo Cambió, which sold one million copies worldwide and reached number-one in Mexico and the United States.[10][19][20] The album yielded six singles, "Abrázame", "Coleccionista de Canciones", "Todo Cambió", "Sólo Para Ti", "Me Da Igual" and "Yo Quiero".[3] Domm received a Latin Grammy Award nomination for Song of the Year in 2008 for the single "Todo Cambió".[21] In 2010, Camila released their second album Dejarte de Amar.[10] Dejarte de Amar debuted at the top of the charts in Mexico and the United States.[20][22] In Mexico the album has spent eight weeks at number-one and 70 non-consecutive weeks within the top ten.[22] At the Latin Grammy Awards of 2010, the band earned three awards, Record of the Year and Song of the Year for the song "Mientes" and Best Pop Vocal Album by a Group.[23]
In 2007, Domm worked on the album Entre Mariposas for Mexican singer Yuridia. Domm co-wrote "Ahora Entendí" and "Más de lo que Pido".[24] "Ahora Entendí" reached the top 20 in the Billboard Latin charts and the album peaked at number-one in Mexico, spending 83 weeks in the Top 100.[25][26] Domm wrote "Causa y Efecto" for Mexican singer Paulina Rubio, who released it as the first single from her album Gran City Pop in 2009.[27] The track became a number-one hit in the Billboard Top Latin Songs and Latin Pop Airplay charts.[2] As a part of a concert series by the record label Sony Music Latin entitled Primera Fila, Mexican singer Thalía recorded her first live album at the BankUnited Center of the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida.[28] The first single, "Equivocada", was written by Domm and Maria Bernal, and peaked at number eight in the Latin charts in the United States.[29] Mexican singer Alejandro Fernández recorded "Cielo de Acuarela", written by Domm, and included it on his album Dos Mundos: Evolución (2009).[30]
Featured in Bachata artist's Romeo Santos' debut solo album Formula (Vol. 1) (2011) on the track Rival.
Domm has been linked romantically with Mexican TV presenter Mónica Noguera, singers Yuridia, Irán Castillo and Belinda.[31][32][33][34] Allegedly, Domm wrote "Mientes" and "Bésame" (recorded by Camila) for Yuridia.[35] In February 2010, Domm criticised the participation of Enrique Iglesias in the remake of the single "We Are the World 25 for Haiti" saying on his Twitter account that "he ruins the whole thing". Domm later apologized to Iglesias and his fans.[36]

Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. (born September 27, 1982), better known by his stage name Lil Wayne, is an American rapper. At the age of nine, Lil Wayne joined Cash Money Records as the youngest member of the label, and half of the duo, The B.G.'z, with B.G.. In 1997, Lil Wayne joined the group Hot Boys, which also included rappers Juvenile, B.G., and Young Turk. Hot Boys debuted with Get It How U Live! that year. Lil Wayne gained most of his success with the group's major selling album Guerrilla Warfare, released in 1999. Also in 1999, Lil Wayne released his Platinum debut album Tha Block Is Hot, selling over one million copies in the U.S.
Although his next two albums Lights Out (2000) and 500 Degreez (2002) were not as successful (only reaching Gold status), Lil Wayne reached higher popularity in 2004 with Tha Carter, which included the single "Go D.J." Wayne also appeared on the Destiny's Child top ten single "Soldier" that year. In 2005, the sequel to Tha Carter, Tha Carter II, was released. In 2006 and 2007, Lil Wayne released several mixtapes and appeared on several popular rap and R&B singles. His most successful album, Tha Carter III, was released in 2008 and sold over 1 million copies in the U.S. its first week of release. It included the number-one single "Lollipop" featuring Static Major. It also includes the singles "A Milli" and "Got Money" featuring T-Pain and won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album.
Lil Wayne released his debut rock album, Rebirth, in 2010 to primarily negative reception from critics. The album eventually went gold. In March 2010, Lil Wayne began serving an 8-month prison sentence in New York after being convicted of criminal possession of a weapon stemming from an incident in July 2007. While in prison he released another album entitled I Am Not a Human Being in September 2010, featuring Young Money artists such as Drake, Nicki Minaj and Lil Twist.

Lil Wayne was born Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr. and grew up in the Hollygrove neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana.[3] Carter was born when his mother, a chef, was 19 years old. His parents were divorced when he was 2, and his father permanently abandoned the family. Carter enrolled in the gifted program of Lafayette Elementary School and in the drama club of Eleanor McMain Secondary School.[4]
He wrote his first rap song at age eight.[5] In the summer of 1991, he met Bryan Williams, rapper and owner of Cash Money Records. Carter recorded freestyle raps on Williams's answering machine, leading him to mentor the young Carter and include him in Cash Money-distributed songs. He also recorded his first ever collaboration album True Story with rapper B.G.. At the time, Carter was 11, and B.G. was 14, and was billed as "The B.G.'z".[6] When he was 12, he played the part of the Tin Man in his middle school drama club's production of The Wiz.[7] At age 13, he accidentally shot himself with a 9 mm handgun, and off-duty police officer Robert Hoobler drove him to the hospital.[8] At McMain Magnet School, Carter was an honor student, but he dropped out at the age of 14 to focus on a musical career.[9]
In 1997, Carter joined the Hot Boys along with rappers Juvenile, B.G., and Turk. At age 15, Carter was the youngest member at that time. Hot Boys' debut album Get It How U Live! was released the same year, followed in 1999 by the group's major-label debut Guerrilla Warfare,[3] which reached No. 1 on the Billboard magazine Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and No. 5 on the Billboard 200.[10] During their career, the Hot Boys had two charting singles, "We on Fire" from Get It How U Live! and "I Need a Hot Girl" from Guerrilla Warfare.[11] Carter was also featured on Juvenile's single "Back That Azz Up", which reached No. 18 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 5 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks.[12] Let 'Em Burn, a compilation album of unreleased tracks recorded during 1999 and 2000, came out in 2003, several years after the group disbanded.[13] It reached No. 3 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and No. 14 on the Billboard 200.[10]
Carter's debut solo album Tha Block Is Hot at age 17 featured significant contributions from the Hot Boys and was certified platinum, debuting at No. 3 on the Billboard album charts.[3] The album earned him a 1999 Source magazine award nomination for "Best New Artist",[14] and also became a Top Ten hit.[3] The lead single was "Tha Block Is Hot". After the release of Tha Block is Hot, Carter was featured on the single, "Bling Bling", with B.G., Juvenile, and Big Tymers. His verse was featured on the radio edition, and on the album version, only his hook was featured on the single.
His 2000 follow-up album Lights Out failed to attain the level of success achieved by his debut[3] but was certified gold by RIAA.[15] Critics pointed to the lack of coherent narratives in his verses as evidence that he had yet to mature to the level of his fellow Hot Boys.[16] The lead single was "Get Off The Corner" which was noticed for an improvement in lyrical content and style, it also received a music video. The second single which received less attention was "Shine" featuring The Hot Boys. Near the release of Lights Out, Lil Wayne was featured on the single, "1# Stunna" with Big Tymers and Juvenile, which rose to 24th place on the Hot Rap Tracks charts.
Lil Wayne's third album 500 Degreez, released in 2002, followed the format of his previous two, with significant contributions from the Hot Boys and Mannie Fresh. While certified Gold like its predecessor,[15] it too failed to match the success of his debut.[3] The title was a reference to the recently estranged Hot Boys member Juvenile's recording, 400 Degreez.[17] The lead single was "Way Of Life" which like the album failed to match the success of his previous singles. After the release of 500 Degreez, he was featured in the single "Neva Get Enuf" by 3LW.[18]
In the summer of 2004, Wayne's album Tha Carter was released, marking what critics considered advancement in his rapping style and lyrical themes.[19] In addition, the album's cover art featured the debut of Wayne's now-signature dreadlocks.[3] Tha Carter gained Wayne significant recognition, selling 878,000 copies in the United States, while the single "Go DJ" became a Top 5 Hit on the R&B/Hip-Hop chart.[20] After the release of Tha Carter, Lil Wayne was featured in Destiny's Child's single "Soldier" with T.I., which peaked at No. 3 on the U.S. Hot 100 and the U.S. R&B Charts.[21]
Tha Carter II, the follow-up to the original Tha Carter album, was released in December 2005, this time without production by longtime Cash Money Records producer Mannie Fresh, who had since left the label. Tha Carter II sold more than 238,000 copies in its first week of release, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, and went on to sell 2,000,000 copies world wide. The lead single, "Fireman," became a hit in the US, peaking at 32 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Other singles included "Grown Man", "Hustler Muzik", and "Shooter" (featuring R&B singer Robin Thicke). Lil Wayne also appeared on a remix of Bobby Valentino's "Tell Me", which rose to No. 13 on the U.S. R&B Charts. In 2005, Lil Wayne was named president of Cash Money, and in the same year he founded Young Money Entertainment as an imprint of Cash Money.[22] However, as of late 2007, Lil Wayne reported that he has stepped down from the management of both labels and has handed management of Young Money over to Cortez Bryant.[23]
In 2006, Lil Wayne collaborated with rapper Birdman for the album Like Father, Like Son, whose first single "Stuntin' Like My Daddy", reached No. 21 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Instead of a follow-up solo album, Lil Wayne reached his audience through a plethora of mixtapes and guest appearances on a variety of pop and hip-hop singles.[3] Of his many mixtapes, Dedication 2 and Da Drought 3 received the most media exposure and critical review. Dedication 2, released in 2006, paired Lil Wayne with DJ Drama and contained the acclaimed socially conscious track "Georgia Bush," in which Lil Wayne critiqued former US president George W. Bush's response to the effects of Hurricane Katrina on the city of New Orleans. Da Drought 3 was released the following year and was available for free legal download. It contained Lil Wayne rapping over a variety of beats from recent hits by other musicians. Numerous of features in prominent hip-hop magazines such as XXL[24] and Vibe[9] covered the mixtape. Christian Hoard of Rolling Stone magazine considered the mixtapes Da Drought 3 and The Drought Is Over 2 "among the best albums of 2007."[4]
Despite no album release for two years, Lil Wayne appeared in numerous singles as a featured performer, including "Gimme That" by Chris Brown, "Make It Rain" by Fat Joe, "You" by Lloyd, and "We Takin' Over" by DJ Khaled (also featuring Akon, T.I., Rick Ross, Fat Joe, and Birdman), "Duffle Bag Boy" by Playaz Circle, "Sweetest Girl (Dollar Bill)" by Wyclef Jean (also featuring Akon), and the remix to "I'm So Hood" by DJ Khaled (also featuring T-Pain, Young Jeezy, Ludacris, Busta Rhymes, Big Boi, Fat Joe, Birdman, and Rick Ross). All these singles charted within the top 20 spots on the Billboard Hot 100, Hot Rap Tracks, and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts. On Birdman's 2007 album 5 * Stunna, Lil Wayne appeared on the singles "100 Million" and "I Run This" among several other tracks. Wayne also appeared on tracks from albums Getback by Little Brother, American Gangster by Jay-Z, and Graduation by Kanye West and Insomniac by Enrique Iglesias. "Make it Rain", a Scott Storch production that peaked at number 13 on the Hot 100 and number two on the Hot Rap Tracks chart,[25] was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for 2008.[26]
Vibe magazine ranked a list of 77 of Lil Wayne's songs from 2007 and ranked his verse in DJ Khaled's "We Takin Over" as his best of 2007, with "Dough Is What I Got" (a freestyle over the beat of Jay-Z's "Show Me What You Got") from Da Drought 3 the second song.[9] At the end of 2007, an MTV poll selected Lil Wayne as "Hottest MC in the Game",[27] The New Yorker magazine ranked him "Rapper of the Year",[6] and GQ magazine named him "Workaholic of the Year".[28] In 2008 he was named "Best MC" by Rolling Stone.[4] Another article, built around Lil Wayne's 2007 mixtape work, cites his creative practice as an example of post performance creative practice.[29]
Initially planned to be released in 2007, Tha Carter III's largest delay came after the majority of the tracks were leaked and distributed on mixtapes, such as "The Drought Is Over Pt. 2" and "The Drought Is Over Pt. 4". Lil Wayne initially decided to use the leaked tracks, plus four new tracks, to make a separate album, titled The Leak. The Leak was to be released December 18, 2007, with the actual album being delayed until March 18, 2008,[30] The release of The Leak in this format never came to fruition, but an official EP titled The Leak and containing five tracks was released digitally on December 25, 2007.[31] Tha Carter III was released on June 10, 2008, selling more than a million copies in its first week of release, the first to do so since 50 Cent's The Massacre in 2005.[32] The first single "Lollipop", featuring Static Major became the rapper's most commercially successful song at that point, topping the Billboard Hot 100, making it the first Top 10 single for Lil Wayne as a solo artist, as well as his first No. 1 on the chart. His third single from Tha Carter III, "Got Money" featuring T-Pain, peaked at No. 13 on the Billboard 100. Tha Carter III also won four Grammy Awards, including best rap album and best rap song, which he won for "Lollipop".[33] Along with his album singles, Lil Wayne appeared on R&B singles "Girls Around the World" by Lloyd, "Love In This Club, Part II" by Usher, "Official Girl" by Cassie, "I'm So Paid" by Akon, "Turnin' Me On" by Keri Hilson, and "Can't Believe It" by T-Pain; rap singles "My Life" by The Game, "Shawty Say" by David Banner, "Swagga Like Us" by T.I., "Cutty Buddy" by Mike Jones, All My Life (In the Ghetto) by Jay Rock and the remix to "Certified" by Glasses Malone; and pop single "Let It Rock" by new Cash Money artist Kevin Rudolf. On July 14, 2008, the Recording Industry Association of America certified Tha Carter III two times platinum.[34] In an October 2008 interview with MTV News, Lil Wayne announced plans to re-release this album with all new tracks, including a duet with Ludacris and remixes of "A Milli".[35]
The lineup for New Orleans' 2008 Voodoo Experience concert, held in October, featured Lil Wayne. Jonathan Cohen of Billboard magazine reported that the event would mark his biggest hometown headlining set of his career.[36] Lil Wayne stated that he would reunite with Hot Boys alongside Juvenile, Turk, and B.G. They plan to release an album after B.G.'s solo album Too Hood to Be Hollywood was completed.[37] Wayne also performed as the 2008 Virgin Mobile Music Fest with Kanye West, performing the remix of "Lollipop" with West and also lip-syncing to Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You".[38] Lil Wayne also performed at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards with Kid Rock ("All Summer Long"), Leona Lewis ("DontGetIt (Misunderstood)") and T-Pain ("Got Money"). On the season premiere of Saturday Night Live, he performed "Lollipop" and "Got Money".[39] He later performed at the homecoming rally at Vanderbilt University[40] and the 2008 BET Hip Hop Awards with 12 nominations.[41] He won the "MVP" title at the BET Hip Hop Awards and seven others.[42] It was revealed that M.I.A. dropped out of performing on the tour due to her pregnancy, however Jay-Z is expected to perform with Wayne on the song "Mr. Carter" at select shows.[43] On November 11, 2008, Wayne became the first hip-hop act to ever perform at the Country Music Association Awards. He played alongside Kid Rock for the song, "All Summer Long", in which Wayne did not rap but instead inaudibly strummed guitar strings alongside the guitarist in Kid Rock's band.[44] Shortly after, Wayne was nominated for eight Grammys – the most for any artist nominated that year.[45] Wayne was then named the first ever MTV Man of the Year at the end of 2008.[46] He won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance for "A Milli", Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for his appearance in T.I.'s single "Swagga Like Us", and Best Rap Song for "Lollipop". Tha Carter III won the award for Best Rap Album.[33] MTV News listed Lil Wayne number two on their 2009 list of the Hottest MCs In The Game.[47]
On December 23, 2009, Wayne released a collaboration album with Young Money, with the first single confirmed as "Every Girl".[48] The second single is "BedRock", featuring Lloyd. The third single is "Roger That". On May 24, 2010, the album was certified gold by the RIAA with over 500,000 copies sold.[49] Wayne is featured on the song, "Revolver", with Madonna for her 2009 greatest hits album, Celebration. He was also featured on a Weezer song, "Can't Stop Partying", on their 2009 album, Raditude.[50] In late 2008, Wayne stated that he would re-release The Carter III with leftover tracks and call it Rebirth, several months later, however, he announced Rebirth would instead release as his debut rock album, maintaining its title as Rebirth.[51] To support the release of Rebirth and a collaboration album with Young Money Entertainment, Wayne headlined the 'Young Money Presents: America's Most Wanted Music Festival'... a United States and Canada–only concert tour which started on July 29, 2009. The Rebirth album was originally scheduled for a April 7, 2009 release, however after numerous delays, the album was released on February 2, 2010. For the anticipation of Rebirth, Wayne was featured on the cover of Rolling Stone.[52] "Prom Queen", the first official single, debuted on January 27, 2009 immediately after a live Internet broadcast on Ustream[53] of his concert in San Diego.[54] "Prom Queen" peaked at number 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. On December 3, 2009, Lil Wayne's second single from the album, "On Fire", was released on iTunes. "On Fire" was produced by Cool & Dre.[55] "On Fire" peaked at number 33 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. "Drop the World", which features Eminem, is the third single from the album.[55]
Lil Wayne was thought to be releasing an EP entitled I Am Not a Human Being, but it was confirmed that would be a full length LP. The album was released on September 27, 2010 which was his birthday. The album has sold over 953,000 copies in the U.S.[56] and has spawned a successful single in "Right Above It" which peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.
In an interview on MTV's Mixtape Monday, Wayne asserted the possibility of the album Tha Carter IV.[57] Following Tha Carter III's achievement of selling over 3 million copies, becoming 2008's best-selling record, Wayne re-signed with Cash Money Records for a multi-album deal.[58] Wayne said Tha Carter IV will be released in 2009 just before the holidays.[59] Birdman had previously stated that Tha Carter IV would be packaged with Rebirth as a double disc album.[60] However, Wayne denied this idea saying that "Tha Carter IV deserves Tha Carter IV". He went on to say that We Are Young Money may be packaged with Rebirth.[61][62] However, it was later confirmed that Rebirth and We Are Young Money will be released separately and that Tha Carter IV will be released during 2011. He started from scratch on Tha Carter IV since getting released from prison.[63] He recorded his first track since being released from prison and it was described as being "a 2010 version of A Milli on steroids." The album is set to feature multiple guests, including Tech N9ne.[64] The first single "6 Foot 7 Foot" featuring Cory Gunz was released on December 15, 2010.

Speaking to a largely African-American audience during a general election campaign town hall speech in Georgia, then-U.S. Senator Obama exhorted children to stay in school and achieve their dreams through education and perseverance instead of hoping for shortcuts to fame and riches, stating: "You are probably not that good a rapper. Maybe you are the next Lil Wayne, but probably not, in which case you need to stay in school."[107]
After assuming the Presidency, Obama later echoed this theme of personal and familial responsibility and the difficulty of achieving Lil Wayne's lyrical skills or success—during an address to a meeting commemorating the 100th anniversary of the NAACP, telling the audience:
They might think they've got a pretty jump shot or a pretty good flow, but our kids can’t all aspire to be LeBron or Lil Wayne. I want them aspiring to be scientists and engineers, doctors and teachers, not just ballers and rappers. I want them aspiring to be a Supreme Court justice. I want them aspiring to be President of the United States of America.[108]
Obama has also noted that the music on his iPod includes Lil Wayne:

On July 24, 2008, Abkco Music Inc filed a lawsuit against Lil Wayne for copyright infringement and unfair competition, specifically referring to Tha Carter III's track "Playing with Fire".[130] In the lawsuit, Abkco claims that the song was obviously derived from The Rolling Stones' "Play with Fire", to which Abkco owns the rights.[130][131] Subsequently, "Playing with Fire" was removed from the tracklist of Tha Carter III on all online music stores and replaced with the David Banner produced track, "Pussy Monster".[132][133][134]
In February 2009, production company RMF Productions filed a $1.3 million lawsuit against Wayne, following a $100,000 advance payment for three shows, all of which were cancelled by the artist.[135]
On October 2009, Lil Wayne, Birdman, Cash Money Records, and various music distribution outlets were sued for copyright infringement by Thomas Marasciullo, who claims his voice was used without permission. The rappers asked him to record some "Italian-styled spoken word recordings" in 2006. The lyrics were allegedly used on "Respect" and other tracks from the rappers' collaboration album Like Father, Like Son and Birdman's 5 * Stunna.[136]
In March 2011, producer Deezle (Darius Harrison) sued Wayne and his parent labels Cash Money Records over unpaid royalties from Tha Carter III.[137]

After hearing word that Lil Wayne had written a diss song for him after 50 Cent made some unkind remarks, 50 lashed out at Wayne first on August 17, 2007 with the song "Part Time Lover".[142] Wayne never really responded to the song, although a 50 Cent diss track called "Louisianimal" did leak much later on November 17, 2008.[143] 50 responded to Lil Wayne in January 2009 in a song entitled "Play This On The Radio".[144] As of August 14, 2009, the controversy between 50 Cent and Lil Wayne seems to have ended after 50 Cent appeared and performed at Lil Wayne's America's Most Wanted Musical Festival stop in Anaheim, California.[145]
In early 2011, when Jay-Z & Kanye West's single "H•A•M" was released, Jay-Z took shots at Lil Wayne's mentor Birdman, saying "Really, you got Baby money" and "[you] ain't got my lady's money!".[146] On August 24, 2011, a song called "It's Good" by Lil Wayne (featuring Drake and Jadakiss) was leaked online and included Lil Wayne responding "Talkin’ ‘bout baby money? I gotcha baby money. Kidnap your bitch, get that, How much you love your lady? money".[147][148] Rapper Jadakiss later absolved himself of involvement in any brewing beef on his official Twitter feed.[149][150]

Romeo was invited, in the summer of 2006, to the Reebok-sponsored ABCD Camp, which is considered the premier basketball camp in the United States. The Teaneck, New Jersey-based ABCD Camp is an invitation-only basketball showcase previously attended by high-profile players including Kobe Bryant, Stephon Marbury, Tracy McGrady, LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony. Surrounded by future NBA players such as O. J. Mayo, Derrick Rose, and Kevin Love, Miller looked out of place and averaged less than 2 points a game throughout the camp. The Wall Street Journal made an article on March 8, entitled "A Hot Prospect," cites Sonny Vaccaro, the longtime director of the ABCD Camp, as explaining, "he invited Romeo Miller to the 2006 camp, primarily as a favor to Percy Miller, whom he knew from the club basketball circuit." In the article, Vaccaro indicated, "If you're looking for the profile of an athlete who plays basketball at USC, he's not it."[30]
On April 13, 2007, Miller verbally committed to the University of Southern California (USC) and signed a letter of intent on November 19, 2007.
Miller, a 5'11" point guard, was a four year starter at Beverly Hills High School. As a junior during the 2005–2006 high school season he averaged 13.9 points and 5.6 assists per game.[31][32] As a senior during the 2006–2007 high school season he averaged 8.6 points and 9.0 assists per game.[30][31]
According to The Wall Street Journal, it appears the decision to grant Miller a full scholarship at USC was largely driven by his relationship with friend and teammate Demar DeRozan, the 6-foot-6 All-American forward who was rated as the number five prospect in the country on Scout.com. The Wall Street Journal reported Coach Tim Floyd as saying, "Last April...Percy Miller called while driving both players from a tournament in Fayetteville, Ark...Percy Miller said 'Demar and Romeo are ready to make their decision, and would you like to have them both on scholarship?'...'I said absolutely.'"[30] Miller and DeRozan began playing in the 2008–2009 season.
On December 27 Romeo modeled for a new 2011 calendar.[33] On April 10, 2011 Miller modeled for the April issue of TROIX magazine.[34] On April 12, 2011 Miller modeled again for some new pictures.[35] He also modeled with the singer-songwriter Chynna Terrell.
After originally withdrawing from season two of Dancing with the Stars due to an injury,[36] Romeo competed in season twelve.[37] He was partnered with professional dancer, Chelsie Hightower. They were eliminated from the show on May 10, 2011 and finished in the Top 5, one week before the semi-final.
