Skee-Lo “I wish”
Skee-Lo
“I wish”
I
remember really digging this song back in the day. I always wanted
to know why we didn't hear more from Skee-Lo. Yet, this song was a
huge hit for him. Plus, this song has been used in a lot of ads. He
has made some
major coin from this song.
I
kind of like the Will Smith vibe he has with his lyrics because he
tells stories with each verses. This song is a reverse brag-based
rap song, which makes it a nice standout from the rest. Growing up,
I was that odd man out sort of guy that didn't have the luck with the
ladies or had a nice car. I wasn't very athletic or a smooth talker.
I simply got ignored or made fun of by the ladies. So, this song
was my anthem.
-Forest
Gump reference: Okay, I like what he is doing here with him being
the Forest Gump character on the bench.
-The
music is a good mix with some nice record scratches thrown in for
good measure.
-Throw
the Basketball Away: I love when he throws the basketball away after
he's mad. That always makes me laugh.
There
is a sweet mashup Cher
Lloyd's song I Wish. Check it out.
And,
check out this cover of the song.
