Noah Raymond Brickley (born February 10, 1978), better known by his stage name Noah23, is a Canadian-American hip hop artist from Guelph, Ontario, currently based in Los Angeles, California. He is co-founder of the Plague Language collective and record label, and has been described as "one of Canada's best, most underrated MCs".
Noah Raymond Brickly was born in 1978 in Natchez, Mississippi, and moved to Guelph, Ontario at the age of 4. He began rapping in the early 1990s and released his first album, originally entitled Plague Language, in 1999. This album, initially released on cassette, was remastered and released on CD in 2006 under the name Cytoplasm Pixel.
In the late 1990s, Noah23 started the record label Plague Language with producer Orphan (real name Kingston Maguire, who went on to become one half of production duo Blue Sky Black Death). In the early 2000s the Plague Language label released music from artists such as Baracuda,Livestock,Orko the Sycotik Alien,Penny, The Main, and Madadam. In 2004, following the departure of Orphan, the label entered into a period of indefinite hiatus. Plague Language continues to exist, however, as both an imprint on associated Canadian label Legendary Entertainment and as a loose collective of Guelph-based hip-hop artists.
I was 18 she was 45
I met her in some sleazy dive
I bought her a drink, she bought me five
She tells me that she lives nearby
She has this (?) look in her eyes
I say ok, let's go there now
Oh yeah, oh wow, so good, oh yeah
(I'm in love with the forty and above)
Oh yeah, oh wow, oh please, oh yeah
(I'm in love with the forty and above)
She tells me that she has a friend
And that she's into younger men
I say ok, let's call her then
Oh yeah, oh wow, so good, oh yeah
(I'm in love with the forty and above)
Oh yeah, oh wow, oh please, oh yeah
(I'm in love with the forty and above)

Oh yeah, oh wow, so good, oh yeah
(I'm in love with the forty and above)
Oh yeah, oh wow, oh please, oh yeah
(I'm in love with the forty and above)

Oh yeah, oh wow, so good, don't stop,
Oh yeah, oh wow, so good, don't stop
Oh yeah, oh wow, so good, oh yeah
