XXL (pronounced double-ex el) is a Hip-Hop magazine, published by Harris Publications.
XXL was founded in 1997 by Harris Publications. The magazine's past editors included Reginald C. Dennis (formerly of The Source), Sheena Lester, Elliott Wilson (formerly of Ego Trip Magazine and The Source) and Datwon Thomas (former Editor-In-Chief of King Magazine). In May 2009 Datwon Thomas resigned from XXL and executive editor Vanessa Satten, who had been with XXL since 1998, was named the new Editor-in-Chief.
In December 2006, XXL took over the struggling Hip-Hop producer and DJ magazine Scratch (another publication owned by Harris Publications), re-branding it as "XXL Presents Scratch Magazine". Scratch shut down in September 2007. Other titles with limited runs have been launched under the XXL brand, including Hip-Hop Soul, Eye Candy and Shade45. XXL has released many other special projects including tour programs, mixtapes and exclusive DVDs. XXL also maintains a popular website [3], which provides daily hip-hop news, original content and content from the magazine.
I've been tryin' to get to You for a long time
'Cause constantly You been on my mind
I was thinkin' about a short cut I could take
But it seems like I made a mistake
I was wrong, baby it took too long
I got caught in the rush hour
Fellas started to shower
You with love and affection
Now You won't look in my direction (on the)
Expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
At Five o'clock
It's much too crowded, (too crowded)
Much too crowded, (too crowded)
To got it (to got it), crowded, much too crowded
much too crowded (much too crowded)
There's too many ahead of me
They're all trying to get in front of me
But I thought that I could find a clear road ahead
But I found stop lights instead
I was wrong, baby it took too long
I got caught in the rush hour
Fellas started to shower
You with love and affection
Now You won't look in my direction (on the)
Expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
The expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
At Five o'clock
It's much too crowded, (too crowded)
Much too crowded, (too crowded)
To got it (to got it), crowded, much too crowded
much too crowded (much too crowded)
I was wrong, baby it took too long
I got caught in the rush hour
Fellas started to shower
You with love and affection
Now You won't look in my direction (on the)
Expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
The expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
On the expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
The expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
On the expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
The expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
On the expressway to your heart
The expressway - not the best way
The expressway to your heart
