Yep, Duece Poppi is that rapper that was rolling with Trick Daddy a while back. And yes, that’s how he spells “deuce.” Couple this with Gucci Mane’s “Wasted” video, and even Plies’ “Becky,” and it’s evident Southern, ahem, MC’s are targeting the Asher Roth market. Let’s not make this the next trend, please. Somewhere, Young MC...

a little carroll is never a bad idea. honestly, i often wonder if EMB would've been as much the phenomenon if it wasn't for mike's questionable part blowing it up like it did. multiple songs, numerous cameos, countless firsts.... shit is truly epic (and without question still in my all-time top 3). some parts just seem to capture a moment in time perfectly and that clip is definitely one of them. regardless...
