Chris Barriere, better known as 3-2, previously known as Lord 3-2 and Mr. 3-2, is an American rapper from Houston. He has long affiliation with Rap-a-Lot Records.
Barriere first started his career as Lord 3-2 and was one-half of the Convicts alongside Big Mike. The duo released their self-titled debut in 1991, but disbanded the following year after making an appearance on Big Mello's Bone Hard Zaggin. After dropping the "Lord" from his name, 3-2 made several guest appearances on other Rap-a-Lot albums before joining his second group, the Blac Monks with D.A. and AWOL. 3-2 released two albums with the Blac Monks, 1994's Secrets of the Hidden Temple and 1998's No Mercy.
After nearly six years with Rap-a-Lot, 3-2 finally released his solo debut in late 1996 entitled Wicked Buddah Baby. The album fared well on the Billboard's R&B and Heatseekers charts, but failed to make the Billboard 200. After leaving Rap-a-Lot in 1998, Barriere became known as Mr. 3-2 and joined his third group, the Southside Playaz, who then became original members of the Screwed Up Click, a collective of rappers associated with DJ Screw. Southside Playaz released two albums together, 1998's You Gottus Fuxxed Up and 2000's Street Game. After the Southside Playaz split, 3-2 released his second album in 2001 entitled The Governor.
3-2-1 Contact is an American science educational television show that aired on PBS from 1980 to 1988, and an adjoining children's magazine. The show, a production of the Children's Television Workshop, teaches scientific principles and their applications. Dr. Edward G. Atkins, who was responsible for much of the scientific content of the show, felt that the TV program wouldn't replace a classroom but would open the viewers to ask questions about the scientific purpose of things.
3-2-1 Contact was the brainchild of Samuel Y. Gibbon, Jr., who had been the executive producer of The Electric Company for CTW from 1971 to 1977. (Gibbon actually left CTW before Contact's production began, though he was still credited as "Senior Consultant.")
The first season of 65 programs began airing January 14, 1980 on select PBS member stations; it featured a cast of three college students who discussed science in an on-campus room known as the Workshop. The first season came to an end on April 11, 1980, but funds for more episodes were not sufficient until 1982.
3-2:
Down at the mall is the one who's got it all
The answer to my prayers, just two doors down from Sears
I was surprised because they mostly hire guys
She's the girl, she's the girl at the video game store
She's smart and she's sweet, and she knows all of the cheats
Her thumbs are lightning fast, at Tekken she'll beat your ass
She was nice to me, she helped me buy my Wii
She's the girl (she's the girl),
she's the girl (she's the girl) at the video game store
I was alone, playing by myself,
Oh then I was alone, there must be something else
Then she gave me her code, now she's on my friend list
Oh, my heart, I hope this joy is never ending
I was alone (so alone), playing by myself (by myself)
Oh then I was alone (very alone),
there must be something else (something else)
Then she gave me her code, now she's on my friend list
Oh, my heart, I hope this joy is never ending

She was nice to me, she's my final fantasy,
She's the girl, she's the girl at the video game store
Store, she's the girl at the video game store
