Statboogie a.k.a. status started in 1986 with writing lyrics. Slowly he developed himself into a producer. Peep the result.
Status is just a description of this legendary rhyme sayer/producer, soon to be in retrospect. In kinder garten I wrote my rhymes on an etch-a-sketch. Now I sip nothing less than single malt whisky. Cut trees like lumberjacks out of my diet. Maybe two puffs I won't deny it. But my mind state be clear when I perform. I keep it real, for real!

Lyrics
FRIEND Chorus: How can it be That I feel I’ve known you all my life You’re a friend of mine I don’t even know you’re name Still I feel I’ve known you all my life You’re a friend of mine Verse 1: Surprise, surprise The twinkle in your mom’s eyes Made me realize We’d changed for the rest of our lives Positive result of the test Filled my heart with happiness Tears rolled from my cheek to my chest Celebration, I want to tell the whole nation I’ll be a pops With the one I find so amazing, Win Thank you God For giving me this child Please help me now to raise it that it maintains in your light Please help me now to stay strong and be this kid’s guide Please let it know the difference of what’s evil and what’s right Bless us A little stress ‘cause The responsibility for a baby boy or girl Just can’t be taken lightly (I promise) I’ll be there for you every day That’s my word I’ll even be there for you When you make me mad and stuff You heard I just can’t wait to see your face for the first time This song is for you, my friend Consider these your first rhymes Verse 2: I remember how I met your moms It was on a flight from Florida Miami down to Puerto Rico San Juan Mad sparks between the two of us Knew I just Had to play my cards right Couldn't act foolish ‘cause This was a different kind of lady Than the ladies I had met before She never lost my attention The way she smiled When I told her that I liked her Gave me the confidence So I asked her for her number Asked her out to diner that night She said aight yo Later picked her up at the hotel lobby at nine yo Took her to this secret little restaurant down town yo Had filet mignon with a salad on the side yo It’s how your parents met, (Straight up) And that’s the dilly I hope you hear this song clear in your mothers belly I just can’t wait to see your face for the first time This song is for you, my friend Consider these your first rhymes Break: Go shorty! Get busy! Go shorty! Get busy! It don’t matter what the day I keep it real with you It don’t matter what you weigh I keep it real with you Go shorty! Get busy! Go shorty! Get busy! Even though you’re far away I keep it real with you Even when my hair be grey I keep it real with you Verse 3: I put a music box, daily On your mom’s belly button Sometimes you move sumthin’ Sometimes you sit there frontin’ Wonder often if your gonna be my daughter or my son and Just realize you’re welcome in this world when you are coming (The most precious gift) That’s what you are to me I lo’ you kid One day you’re old enough to play this track and understand it I just can’t wait to see your face for the first time This song is for you, my friend Consider these your first rhymes Status, Residence 29/11/2003
