HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I
HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I (usually shortened to HIStory) is the ninth overall studio album and his fifth under Epic Records by American recording artist Michael Jackson. It was released on June 16, 1995 by Epic Records. This is Jackson's first album on his own label, MJJ Productions, and consists of two discs: the first disc (HIStory Begins) is a compilation of some of his greatest hits from 1979 onward, while the second disc (HIStory Continues) is a studio album composed entirely of new material. The majority of the second disc's tracks were written and produced by Jackson, often in conjunction with collaborators.
HIStory was Jackson's return to releasing music following the accusation of child sexual abuse in August 1993. Many of the 15 songs pertain to the accusations and Jackson's mistreatment in the media, specifically the tabloids. The songs' themes include environmental awareness, isolation, greed, suicide and injustice.
HIStory is Jackson's most controversial album. Jackson was accused of using anti-Semitic lyrics in "They Don't Care About Us". Jackson stated that he did not mean any offense and on multiple occasions denied anti-Semitism. The dispute regarding the lyrics ended with Jackson re-recording them. R. Kelly was accused of plagiarizing one of the album's songs, "You Are Not Alone". In 2007 a judge ruled that the song was plagiarized and the song was subsequently banned from radio stations in Belgium.
Money (Blackadder)
"Money" is the fourth episode of the BBC sitcom Blackadder II, the second series of Blackadder, which was set in Elizabethan England from 1558 to 1603.
Plot
Blackadder owes one thousand pounds to the Bishop of Bath and Wells, who threatens to have him killed if he does not pay. Blackadder tries unsuccessfully to blackmail the Bishop. He has only 85 pounds, which he loses when the Queen wins a bet about him with Lord Melchett.
Blackadder and Baldrick manage to get sixpence from a sailor, which is also taken by the Queen. Lord Percy tries to make them money by alchemy, without success, only producing a green substance, which he seems convinced is valuable. Blackadder manages to bully a couple into buying his house for 1100 pounds, but is again tricked out of the money by the Queen.
Finally, Blackadder drugs the Bishop and has a painting made of him in a highly compromising position. He uses this to successfully blackmail the Bishop into writing off the debt and giving him enough money to buy back his house and live in comfort. The Bishop is impressed by his treachery, but asks who the other figure in the painting is, at which Blackadder reveals Percy.

No Money
by: Phyzical Thurapy[Intro: Thurapy]
Aiyo man... Ya know I lost my job right?
But I'm still goin' to da club tonight,
I ain't got no money... but I don't need dat to party.
[Verse 1: Phyzical]
Aiyo... check it... yo!
I ain't got no money girl, I'm just tryna keep it real,
I just cut a check, and then I blew it on some Roca-Wear,
Do you see a pattern here? I'm not here to interfere,
I'm just here to get my dough,
Spend it all, and then be broke,
And why you tryna pull my pocket,
I done told you "I don't got it! "
What the h*** would make you happy?
Tom Brady... Please Lady!
I ain't losin' like his ass,
I'm just out to get it fast,
Rock it out and hit the gas,
Turn it up and let it blast,
Take another look at me,
You ain't gettin' nuttin' free!
I can't even pay my rent,
I just blew it on a Benz,
Why you askin' fo' amounts?
You don't get my bank accounts,
You ain't rollin' in my clique,
You don't like it? Throw a fit!
I ain't workin' 9 to 5,
I'm just clubbin' everynight,
Spendin' all my money waste time,
Call me Johnny Wright,
You could find me at the mall,
Buyin' everything I saw,
And this would be the reason I ain't got no money at all...
[Chorus: Phyzical]
If you with' my crew, VIP through the door,
Call a cab for these girls gettin' drunk on the floor,
We grindin' on that ass and we sippin' on the bub,
They know Phyzical Thurapy own the damn club,
Get loose like a child if you steppin' in the crowd,
Keep it bangin' keep it loud like some girls gone wild,
I ain't got a job, I got fired so I'm beat,
I ain't got no money cause I spent it last week...
[Verse 2: Thurapy]
Thurapy...
I spend my money, pump the gas,
In da club I'm on dat ass,
Scopin' out like a bird,
I make my move like a herd,
Can you dig it like a warrior on the run (run!),
The way I see it I ain't got no money for you hun (hun!),
Got the looks, got the luck,
Like to look, love to f***,
In da club, keep it buck,
Shirt untuck, open bub,
Chick wanna bottle but I gotta say no!,
The ice I serve is around my throat,
Tonight I ride solo, so get'cha own drink ho!,
I keep the momentum hot,
Like Clinton & O-bama,
Shawty be on me first thing I think she be my suga' ma,
But hold up wait a minute,
This chick believe I live it,
I fo' sho' to double hit it,
Like the Manning brothers did it,
'Dis chick bump her booty like da bass bump da speakers,
Homie I spent rent on these new pair of sneakers,
If ya got a man babe I promise that I won't tell,
I just needa place to stay, can we do it at'cha hotel?
[Chorus x2: Phyzical]
If you with' my crew, VIP through the door,
Call a cab for these girls gettin' drunk on the floor,
We grindin' on that ass and we sippin' on the bub,
They know Phyzical Thurapy own the damn club,
Get loose like a child if you steppin' in the crowd,
Keep it bangin' keep it loud like some girls gone wild,
I ain't got a job, I got fired so I'm beat,
