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.
Fallin', fallin', fallin'
This is your pilot speaking, we're losing altitude
Just when emotion's peaking, awakening is rude
I've seen that disbelieving look upon your face
Now watch our bodies both as one we fall through space
Chorus:
32, do a 32, do a 32, and keep falling
Falling
Now all the constellations look just like you and me
The earth keeps getting closer, the force of gravity
Second per second becomes hour after hour, into infinity we fall together
(chorus repeats 2x)
(Solo)
I've seen that disbelieving look upon your face
Now watch our bodies both as one we fall through space
(chorus repeats 4x)
