    The rap duo Outkast has a new album coming out soon. They have just released a few videos of songs from the new album. One of these songs is "The Way You Move." Upon watching the video for the first time, I was surprised to see a segment of it taking place in a dojo, with the guys of Outkast holding none other than LIGHTSABERS! A really cool Star Wars reference from a really cool group.

    You should send an e-mail to the TFN Holonet about that. If they haven't reported about it already, they will post it in the news sections and credit you with the find!

    I tried doing that once, but no one posted it, and no one replied to me. :(

    Well, if I'm like 50 Cent, then THE NEW BREED.

    Outkast is awesome. Andre and Big Boi are some of the coolest lyricists... and they have good, if not better, stuff pre-Stankonia.

    Found another SW reference in rap. This one comes from Ludacris's album Chicken and Beer. The song is called "Hip-Hop Quotables." Here are some lyrics, edited with Red Dwarf terminology, of course:

    I'll take a smeg on the equator, the size of a crater
    And make Government officials breathe harder than Darth Vader

    In Jay-Z's song, Change Clothes, he says:
    "No body gonna wesley snipe me....., move back let out breathe Jedi Knight the more space I get the better I write."

    Edit: Here I made a post in the Music board a while ago but didn't get many responses.

    What's sad is...I've seen and heard both of those videos. BTW, what the frell is that line of Jay-Z supposed to mean?

    Outkast...that 2 shots of guys confused whether they are in the Matrix or a bad martial arts movie (BMack..."the defender" you know what I mean) I might have missed something important, because I was numbed to the point of drooling...because of the mindless parade of "ladies" (and I use that term as loosely as their clothing) with them.

    Here's one from the Notorious BIG - Hypnotize:

    (Verse 3):
    Tell them ***, take they clothes off slowly
    Hit em wit' the force like Obi, **** black like Toby (Obi...Toby)

    Great song and video!

    I'm not even sure what he says in part of the song. That's why I put in the "....."

    Today I just bought the new D-12 album, "D-12 World." In the liner notes, Proof (Eminem's best friend, also a member of D-12) thanks Bubba Fatt.

    Star Wars and rap go together like Ice cream and onions. :p

    Lightsabers in a dojo sounds like a good idea though.
