Song information [link]

The song deals with the popularity and sexual attention rappers receive because of their money, contrasts, and the way Jones was treated before achieving success. The song is sometimes seen as a critique of effects of fame; conversely, it is often considered to present a misogynistic or chauvinistic attitude toward women. The following line, which is repeated many times during the song, sums up the general attitude of the lyrics: "Back then hoes didn't want me / Now I'm hot hoes all on me." Written by Daunte Moore, who died before the song was released.

Chart performance [link]

The single became Mike Jones' most successful single to date, peaking at #22 on the Billboard Hot 100, performing better than his last single "Still Tippin'", which only peaked at #60 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The single became a success on the Hot Rap Tracks chart, and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart where it peaked at #6 and #15 respectively, while becoming a moderate hit on the Pop 100 chart where peaked only at #45. The song was also a moderate success on the Hot Digital Songs chart, where it peaked at #26 and eventually went Platinum, becoming Jones' first platinum single.

Back Then (film)

Back Then (German:Damals) is a 1943 German drama film directed by Rolf Hansen and starring Zarah Leander, Hans Stüwe and Rossano Brazzi. The film's sets were designed by Walter Haag.

It was made at the Babelsberg Studio, by Universum Film AG, Germany's largest film company. It was Leander's final film of the Nazi era, as she returned to Sweden shortly afterwards. This was a blow for the German film industry, as she was the most popular and highest-paid star. Leander's next film was not for another seven years, when she made a comeback in Gabriela (1950).

  • Ali (name)

    Ali (Arabic: علي, ʿAlī) is a male Arabic name derived from the Arabic root ʕ-l-w, which literally means "high" or "elevated". It is a common name in Arab countries and the rest of the Muslim world. Islamic traditional use of the name goes back to the Islamic leader Ali ibn Abi Talib but the name is identical in form and meaning to the Hebrew: עֵלִי , Eli, which goes back to the High Priest Eli in the biblical Books of Samuel.

    The name Ali also arises in other traditions. Among English-speakers as short for male and female names starting with "Al-", or the Old Norse man's name Áli. It can also be an English nickname, as a shortened form of Alexandra, Alison, Alice, Alistair, or Alexander.

    Ali is also a Finnish male given name, derived from Aleksanteri.

    Islam

  • al-'Ali (The Sublimely Exalted), one of the 99 names of God in Islam
  • Ali ('Ali ibn Abi Talib), cousin and son-in-law of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, the first infallible imam (leader) of the Muslim ummah (community) in Twelver Shi'a thought
  • Ali (singer)

    Cho Yong-Jin (Korean: 조용진), famously known as Ali (stylized as ALi), is a South Korean singer-songwriter famous for her work on Korean pop music in the early twenty-first century. Her stage name is a motif from Muhammad Ali. This is so that it can be engraved easily by the masses. Following her debut in 2009, she is primarily known for her strong vocals and her time as a contestant on the KBS program Immortal Songs 2.

    Career

    Following her debut in 2009, she had already gained fame for her appearances on music shows, most notably Immortal Songs 2 on KBS2. She also worked as a professor in applied musical arts at the Seoul Technical Arts College.

    ALi released her first album SOULri in December 2011 which was strangely two years after her official debut. One released track, "Na Young", garnered immediate controversy as its lyrics referenced a case of sexual assault that had been a very public case in South Korea, with many detractors criticizing the song to be insensitive to its subject. ALi would later address this controversy by revealing that she herself was a survivor of sexual assault.

    List of House characters

    This page is a comprehensive listing and detailing of the various characters who appear, from time to time, in the television series House. The list is divided episode-wise, as well as character-wise, and includes recurring characters, such as Dr. James Wilson, Cuddy, Foreman, Rachel Taub, and Dominika, as well as characters who appear in only a few episodes, such as Steve McQueen (the rat) and House's stalker, Ali.

    Main characters

    Senior doctors

  • Dr. Gregory House (Hugh Laurie) – Department Head: Diagnostic Medicine. Dr. Gregory House is a maverick diagnostician with a double specialty in infectious disease and nephrology. Dr. House utterly lacks bedside manner and prefers to avoid direct contact with his patients whenever possible. Due to an infarction in his right thigh, House lost a substantial portion of the muscle in his upper leg and must use a cane to assist with walking. As a result, House is also forced to deal with constant physical pain, which he manages through a dependency on the prescription pain medication Vicodin. Although his behavior can border on antisocial, misanthropic or Sociopathic, House is viewed as a genius physician whose unconventional thinking and excellent instincts have afforded him a great deal of respect and an unusual level of tolerance from his colleagues and the medical world. House is eventually replaced by Chase after he fakes his death in the series finale, "Everybody Dies."

    Back Then

    by: CITIZEN COPE

    Before the laws and the social orders
    Before the calls of our lieutenants arrived
    Before the rise of pop culture
    Before the guards at the borders
    Before the expectations
    Led to last frustrations
    Before the path to salvation was clouded
    By the deep depths of temptation
    Back then
    It was alright to pretend
    But all we really have is within
    And we disguised expected
    Back then
    Love had a place to stay
    It wasnt getting turned away
    It took my whole life just to realize
    This has to make a way to back then
    Back then
    Back then
    Back then
    Well holy sons, holy daughters, holy sisters, holy brothers
    Holy skies, holy waters
    For those who came before us
    But on the way to work come before us
    Before the expectations
    Led to last frustrations
    Before the path to salvation was clouded
    By the deep depths of temptation
    Back then
    It was alright to pretend
    But all we really have is within
    And we disguised expected
    Back then
    Love had a place to stay
    It wasnt getting turned away
    It took my whole life just to realize
    This has to make a way to back then
    Back then
    Back then
    Back then
    Back then
