Early life and carrer [link]
Born in England, Moss was raised in Australia—staying with her father when her parents divorced and her mother moved to the United States. While visiting her mother in southern California, she caught the attention of a producer, who asked her to sing backup vocals for a project that he was working on. That led to an internship at Total Access Recording Studios in Redondo Beach, where she worked on records by artists including Long Beach Dub Allstars and Dio. In 2003 she released her debut solo album, Street Knuckles, on DreamWorks Records. She co-produced the record with Rick Hahn, Camara Kambon, and Butch Vig.[1] That August, she was part of the Sprite Liquid Mix Tour with groups like N.E.R.D, The Roots, and Robert Randolph & the Family Band.[2]
After DreamWorks shut down their record label, Moss self-released her second album, Fast and Cheap, in 2005. "Sugar", a song from that album, appeared on Armand Van Helden's 2005 Ultra Records mix CD, Nympho. Ultra released "Sugar" as a single in early 2006 (as Armand Van Helden featuring Jessy Moss) and managed to chart as high as #25 on the Billboard Hot Dance Singles Sales chart.[3] Moss also released her third album, Down at the Disco, in 2006.
Personal life [link]
In November 2008, she married drummer Steve Jocz of Sum 41. The couple have a son together, born April 2011.

Moss
Mosses are small flowerless plants that typically grow in dense green clumps or mats, often in damp or shady locations. The individual plants are usually composed of simple, one-cell thick leaves, attached to a stem that may be branched or unbranched and has only a limited role in conducting water and nutrients. Although some species have vascular tissue this is generally poorly developed and structurally different from similar tissue found in other plants. They do not have seeds and after fertilisation develop sporophytes (unbranched stalks topped with single capsules containing spores). They are typically 0.2–10 cm (0.1–3.9 in) tall, though some species are much larger, like Dawsonia, the tallest moss in the world, which can grow to 50 cm (20 in) in height.
Mosses are commonly confused with lichens, hornworts, and liverworts. Lichens may superficially look like mosses, and have common names that include the word "moss" (e.g., "reindeer moss" or "iceland moss"), but are not related to mosses. Mosses, hornworts, and liverworts are collectively called "bryophytes". Bryophytes share the property of having the haploid gametophyte generation as the dominant phase of the life cycle. This contrasts with the pattern in all "vascular" plants (seed plants and pteridophytes), where the diploid sporophyte generation is dominant.
Mossé
Mossé is a French family name:
Mossø
Mossø is Denmark's third largest freshwater lake and Jutland's largest, as measured by surface area. The lake is located just east of the city of Skanderborg in east Jutland, but is part of both Skanderborg Municipality and Horsens Municipality. Mossø lies in the middle of the area and landscape known as Søhøjlandet (English: The Lake-highland).
There is a small lake named Mossø in the forest of Rold Skov in Himmerland.
Nature
Both ospreys and white-tailed eagle is regularly observed at Mossø and the later have recently established here as a breeding bird, which is rare in Denmark.
Mossø is part of the 4,470 ha Natura 2000 protection area, designated as number 52. The lake is also designated as an international bird protection area, with number F35.

The Baddest
by: Froggy Fresh[Intro]
Krispy Kreme!
2012, yeah, we back up in this
Y'all already know
Cause
[Hook]
I am the baddest of them all
If you ain't 'bout money, then I don't mess with y'all
Y'all think I don't get girls, cause I ain't very tall
If she see my stacks, I bet you that she calls
I am the baddest of them all
If you ain't 'bout money, then I don't mess with y'all
Y'all think I don't get girls, cause I ain't very tall
If she see my stacks, I bet you that she calls
[Verse 1]
I had to fight my whole life
I could beat you up even if you had one thousand knives
Even if you had infinity knives
I would punch you up into the air like a kite
I bet you sleep with a nightlight
Cause you're scared of the dark
Cause you stink like a fart
Well I'll light your fart on fire with my rounds
You think I won't? I do it all the time
I bet I got more money than Jay-Z
Compared to me, Jay-Z is Lay-Z
Plus Beyonce thinks that I'm cute
It's okay Beyonce, I think you're cute too
I made out with so many girls
Made out with every girl in the world
I might look small, but I'm not
I don't care if you're big, I'll fight you a lot
You know that
[Hook]
I am the baddest of them all
If you ain't 'bout money, then I don't mess with y'all
Y'all think I don't get girls, cause I ain't very tall
If she see my stacks, I bet you that she calls
I am the baddest of them all
If you ain't 'bout money, then I don't mess with y'all
Y'all think I don't get girls, cause I ain't very tall
If she see my stacks, I bet you that she calls
[Verse 2]
I have four hundred cars
I have four hundred scars and four hundred guitars
I have four hundred houses
I have four hundred mouses and four hundred houses
Bet you I can dance better than you
I bet you you don't know two plus two
It's four! It's four!
Now go and shut the door
Cause nobody wants to see your face no more
I'm tough as nails
You're slower than a snail
I beat up every single person in jail
I dare you to try and punch me
My face is so hard you'll say, "Ouch, you crunched me"
I fought two lions and won
And I don't even carry a gun
But I never run, but I never run
But I never r-r-r-r, but I never run
You know you know that
[Hook]
I am the baddest of them all
If you ain't 'bout money, then I don't mess with y'all
Y'all think I don't get girls, cause I ain't very tall
If she see my stacks, I bet you that she calls
I am the baddest of them all
If you ain't 'bout money, then I don't mess with y'all
Y'all think I don't get girls, cause I ain't very tall
If she see my stacks, I bet you that she calls
[Outro]
Uhh, Krispy Kreme
I already told you we back up in this
2012 to infinity
