I think I heard the best track ever (do not read if you hate hip hop)

A couple of times on the radio. I think it's Consider Yourseld by N.O.R.E feat Kelis but I got confused about what Tim Westwood was saying. Can anyone who knows this track describe what it sounds like and I'll see if there's a match.

Alternatively, just describe how the track you like but don't know the name of goes.

Not 'Consider Yourself' (or Yourseld) sadly. That's from Oliver! . 'Consider This', I meant.

N.O.R.E.? Are you sure youre not talkng about N.E.R.D. though theres not a song with taht title on the album it might be a Kelis single

I expect the 'd' is a typo, and I haven't heard this tune, so I am wondering if it might be the song that goes "Consider yourself one of us, consider yourself one of the family" from the musical Oliver!, but I don't expect so.

We've taken to you so strong
It's clear we're going to get along .......

Even if that's not the song you were looking for N., it jolly well should be as it is great for turning a boring old family get-together into a right old knees-up. Especially when Great Uncle Bill has had a few sherbets.

Someone (on another MB, not this one) asked for help in locating the song "Agadoo" by Black Lace earlier today. I couldn't understand why anyone would need to know about this. I sent them the link to the Chicken Song instead.

Much more fun.

Seems like N.O.R.E is a Noreaga alias, and I haven't heard this track yet, but I'd certainly recommend the other new Noreaga single, "Nothin'" and now I'm off to download this.

"God's Favorite" is the name of the album, btw.

which is the one "homeboy, at the party / your girl was lookin' at me"?

― Dave M., Sunday, 14 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-three years ago)

that's "nothing".

it sounds like tightrope music, kelis is breathy and says "uh oh" a lot, and there's a bit about mary mack. is that the track you're talking about? it's super great - better than 'nothing' too, which is also great.

i just listened to both of them, and it's not kelis saying uh oh, it's noreaga, and 'nothing' isn't great it's just good. but 'consider this' is still GREAT!

That's it - it does sound like tightrope music. The only review I saw of the album was lukewarm, but maybe I'll get it anyway. Thanks.
