Osci
The Osci (also called Opici, Opsci, Obsci, Opicans, Ancient Greek: Όπικοί, Όσκοί), were an Italic people of Campania and Latium adiectum during Roman times. They spoke the Oscan language, also spoken by the Samnites of Southern Italy. Although the language of the Samnites was called Oscan, the Samnites were never called Osci, or the Osci Samnites.
Traditions of the Opici fall into the legendary period of Italian history, approximately the first half of the first millennium BC, down to the foundation of the Roman Republic. No agreement can be reached concerning their location and language. At the end of that time, the Oscan language appeared and was spoken by a number of sovereign tribal states. By far the most important in military prowess and wealth was the Samnites. They rivalled Rome for about 50 years in the 2nd half of the 4th century BC, sometimes siding with it, and sometimes being against it, until they were finally subdued with considerable difficulty by the unique Roman military system and were incorporated into the Roman state.

Hot It Up
by: Mr Vegas[Verse 1:]
We come a long way what a sweet love story
Memba the days when you used to adore me
All the lovin and the time you gave me
A weh mi a go get that from now baby
A three months now mi can't believe that ya gone
It's like you leave mi pon di great China Wall
Can't believe stay bad man like me ya'll dem all
A every night a your name mi call
[Chorus:]
Do you know how to miss someone
If your in love you'll understand
Cause when you love someone
And you lost that one
It's time to carry on, so hard to carry on
I say do you know how to miss someone
If your in love you'll understand
Because I loved someone
But I lost that one
[Verse 2:]
Now mi come home from work and the house feel empty
Not even da scent of di food fi greet mi
Mi shouldn't a pick the message you a sent mi
A from di day that you stopped a mi laundry
Three months now mi can't believe that you gone
Mi house empty like when Gaddafi keep dance
My sound a play and you not there inna di lawn
Woman tell me what part you gone
[Chorus:]
Do you know how to miss someone
If your in love you'll understand
Cause when you love someone
And you lost that one
It's time to carry on, so hard to carry on
I say do you know how to miss someone
If your in love you'll understand
Because I loved someone
But I lost that one
Do you know how to miss someone
If your in love you'll understand
Cause when you love someone
And you lost that one
It's time to carry on, so hard to carry on
I say do you know how to miss someone
If your in love you'll understand
Because I loved someone
But I lost that one
