Flossin' (Re-Recorded) Lyrics

Mike Jones, Jones
Mike Jones, JonesI stay flossin' in that candy paint
Blowin' dank, sippin' drank on 84 swangers
Tearin' up the lane, tearin' up the lane, yeah
I stay flossin' in that candy paint
Blowin' dank, sippin' drank on 84 swangers
Tearin' up the lane, tearin' up the lane, yeahLi'l daddy, you can tell I'm ballin'
From the way I'm flossin' 84's, I am crawlin'
Screens fallin' as I slide up and down your block
With a chain full of rocks and princess cuts in my watch[Incomprehensible] I'm hot now, a lot of people callin'
But back then they left Mike Jones crawlin'
I'm risin' they fallin' 'cuz I stayed up on my grind
Didn't have time to whine had to put it [Incomprehensible]I'm Mike Jones
(Who?)
Mike Jones
(Who?)
Mike Jones, Jones and I'm a stay puttin' it down
Until the end, pimpin' pens

Tryin' to put a brand new Benz in the wind 'cuzI stay flossin' in that candy paint
Blowin' dank, sippin' drank on 84 swangers
Tearin' up the lane, tearin' up the lane, yeah
I stay flossin' in that candy paint
Blowin' dank, sippin' drank on 84 swangers
Tearin' up the lane, tearin' up the lane, yeahI pull up in a drop top holdin' grain
Parkin' lot pimpin' mayne, I ain't even trippin' mayne
Screens rain as I slide up and down the block
Ride daily holdin' glock 'cuz I know haters plotYou might see me SUV on 24's
Or I might be flippin', tippin' on 4 vogues
Mike Jones, a lot people now mad 'cuz I'm hot
But they gon' be even madder when that jag leave the lotI stay grindin' so I can stay ballin'
'Cuz Lord know's I can't picture me fallin', I'm crawlin'
Candy paint on 4's doggin' all these ho's
You handlin' the road in my wide body loadI'm a baller shot caller, 20 inch crawler
Catch me on the highway or about to tear the mall up
My album, 'Who is Mike Jones?' comin' soon
My album, 'Who is Mike Jones?' comin' soon 'cuzI stay flossin' in that candy paint
Blowin' dank, sippin' drank on 84 swangers
Tearin' up the lane, tearin' up the lane, yeah
I stay flossin' in that candy paint
Blowin' dank, sippin' drank on 84 swangers
Tearin' up the lane, tearin' up the lane, yeahI'm pimpin', flippin' that candy paint
Lane switchin', sippin' that purple drank
Screen fallin', dubs crawlin'
I guess that's why the girls keep callin'
My phone I roam and hop in my Maybach
Haters knock 'cuz we on the grind and they notBig Moe and Mike Jones

Mike Jones

At least three artists share this name:

1) A southern rap artist from the northside of Houston, TX, born January 6, 1981.

Mike Jones has become well-known for his unique repetition of his own name throughout his songs. Many of his songs contain the phrases "Who is Mike Jones?" or "Mike Jones!" His major promotional gimmick is to sell and hand out shirts with his cell phone number on them (athletic department-style shirts reading "Property of Mike Jones"), as well as shouting out the number throughout his mixtapes and albums, encouraging fans to call him on his Motorola phone.

Jones is known for recording in the "chopped & screwed" style popularized by DJ Screw, also of Houston. The slowed-down audio aesthetic supposedly mimics the effect of "sippin' sizzurp," that is, cough syrup containing codeine. Most followers of the chopped & screwed style claim that it has outgrown its drug-related roots. Jones' trademark technique is to take a line from one of his songs and use it as a chorus in another, or sometimes even in the same song, screwing, chopping and repeating it (for example, the chorus to "Back Then" is sampled from the track "Still Tippin").

Jones has used repetition of certain words and phrases extensively in his songs. An example of this can be found in songs such as Back Then when he constantly repeats "Mike Jones" and "Who is Mike Jones." As a result, he has come under intense scrutiny or criticism from fellow rappers in his native Houston such as rappers Chamillionaire and Lil' Flip who have accused Mike Jones of copying their slang or criticized his aforementioned rapping style.

2) Solo pianist.

3) An experimental tape artist from Cardiff, Wales.

Mike Jones ran the CTOANR cassette tape label in the early eighties which featured the likes of Artists such as The Stripey Zebras's, Instant Automatons and other independent artists. Mike was also a recording artist and played in The Chromosomes, Effigies (UK) and released solo work.

Recordings from Mike and The Chromosomes were released in 2008 by the American Label Hyped2Death. The album Messthetics: Greatest Hiss features "Reckless Policies" from Mikes 1981 solo Album "Pretty Flowers", "Hi Fi Know How" by The Chromosomes plus a Cardiff based radio competition where his band finished third (out of three).

Since 1985 Mike has played in the punk/techno/C86 band named Otalgia (which is a medical term for earache).
