Aand if you'll look to your screen you will see one of the major fall points for black women & women in general in amerikA. Webbie pretty much phucked all of u up wit this1. lbs
Webbie got one of the best word play I heard before the way his verse flowed from one word to the next from one subject to the next was fire and I didn’t realize it until today
@@jordans03 I listen to that album everyday at work cause it’s on my playlist so I just let it play out but definitely no skips , straight fire . If only he had a stronger work ethic and stayed hungry and was more consistent he would’ve definitely been more of a goat . He took too many breaks between albums & didnt drop enough music like he was supposed to
I was writing a paper right. And i forgot how to spell independent for a quick sec and I caught myself singing this song to help me remember. I'm giving credit to where credit is due.
I don't remember exactly when this joint came out 20 years ago almost but it still could get radio play. Sensible rap worthy of its recognition. Good job fellas
Not exactly 20 yrs yet. I think like 18 yrs ago. It came out when I was in 8th grade . That was around the 2007-2008 school years. My niece is only 16 and was born in 06 .
God has provided for me and His people because this has been my dream since I was in my 20's. Again, I didnt know my family was squashing me on purpose, but now I do. We pray. We act. We get it done.
Rockstarr303 that's all you need to. if you gotta a good beat, people won't care what the song is about. Cause all them middle schoolers I went with jammed the shit out of that song lol.
Unfortunately most rappers and record labels figured this out and have thrown out the positive lyrics like in this song and will put anything on a hot beat smh lol
This song is about an independent woman. She takes care if herself; pays her own bills; buys her own cars. He admires the qualities of her independence.
It's a good thing when a girl is like that! Nobody wants a gold digger 😂 there's this song about independent girls, and Ne-Yo has "Miss Independent." And then from the other perspective, Kanye West has "Gold Digger," and Cee Lo Green has "Forget You." Everyone prefers the independent girls 😊
@@StevenRogers268 If a man wants a woman to be completely dependent on him it says a lot about him. I'm glad somebody hasn't bought into the manosphere red pill nonsense.
I remember hearing this song when I was a hell of a lot younger and I watched the mv. This song is the graduation ceremony motivation song because it can at least help me for high school.
When this song would come on in the club, I saluted my recruiter. He's a hero. He helped these rappers and myself. God Bless America. Land of the free, home of the brave. Have a good day all of you. 😘👌💖☘️🌻🌼😎🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉
I wish I was shown this song as a kid. I grew up in a white upper-middle class household and I looked down on rap due to my upbringing and surroundings. I have since discovered a shit ton of rap and hip hop that I love. I wish I was able to appreciate it at a younger age.
I dont ever want a man to say I smell like onion rings, say I got dusty feet, or call me a broke broad. Play this song ever so often to remind yourself of why you work so hard.
Man want independent women so they could use their resources and don't bring anything to the table. They want to runaway from their role of being an alpha male.
@@jaquaveonandress649 why early 2000s babies you guys were in kindergarten or in nappies to young know this song only 90s and late 80s babies can relate to this
I remember when this was hot. 🔥 It was a sweet pocket in rap with a lot of anthems. Webbie was doing his thang. Lil Phat was here. I still remember specifically the women I was hanging with that liked the song. It was a good time.
the only bad thing about this... i see black females filling up colleges and black men sitting at home living off the woman. i thank God he gave me the real man I have from 16yrs old and still to this day at 38. when i can't work he works and pays it all, even with our 4 children. we invest our time in our family. i hate seeing women used by men. i know not all men do it, so please no hate, but our generation is headed that way. sad thing.
I'm glad you've found something that works for your family. One income won't cut it in every case. Inflation has outpaced wages. This isn't our grandparent's era. I'll agree that there's excuse for a man to sit on the couch doing nothing.
Yea I agree. I’m the product of a college educated six figure mommy and a bum brokie roody poo, scrub bug a boo of a father. This man bled my mom to death like a human leech. I REFUSE to be like my mom in that way. So I pray for a man like yours, that will provide and protect selflessly ❤
This is my first time listening to this song and I'm impressed finally a song they're not putting women down. If anything they are proud of us women who are independent don't need no man to define us even if in a relationship she can still be independent
When this came out I was like, "Yeeeeah I'm Independent..I don't need a boy's money, I got my own allowance..I babysit my own neighbor's kids...Ayyyeeeeee!" lmaooo
Listening to this song always makes my eyes well-up with tears a little. I know it's cheesy, but with all of the viciousness and negativity out there, it makes me feel happy to think that some men could actually like and even admire an independent professional woman like myself instead of feeling emasculated and wanting to drag her down and control her. That's so sexy

Webbie got one of the best word play I heard before the way his verse flowed from one word to the next from one subject to the next was fire and I didn’t realize it until today
His whole first album was like that. Savage life was a no skip album & he was 17 when he made it
@@jordans03 I listen to that album everyday at work cause it’s on my playlist so I just let it play out but definitely no skips , straight fire . If only he had a stronger work ethic and stayed hungry and was more consistent he would’ve definitely been more of a goat . He took too many breaks between albums & didnt drop enough music like he was supposed to
I wish more rap songs had positive messages like this track. People still think about this song and reference this song, badass song too.

I have always felt this song deep in my spirit, especially Boosie's part (bouncing). #issabop
I'm very independent. I don't chase men. My family knows this. They've made my life difficult to hurt me and to hurt others.
I remember hearing this song when I was a hell of a lot younger and I watched the mv. This song is the graduation ceremony motivation song because it can at least help me for high school.
🔥🔥🔥 Video just radiating that mid 2000s energy! Shout out ladies! ♥️🙌🏿👑 Love the hype in this song

2022 still rocking this like it's my national anthem!!! This is my sound track to the beginning of my movie ;)
Rip phat listening to this during covid 19 pandemic
This song singlehandedly started modern feminism and taught people how to spell independent.
I remember when this was hot. 🔥
It was a sweet pocket in rap with a lot of anthems. Webbie was doing his thang. Lil Phat was here. I still remember specifically the women I was hanging with that liked the song. It was a good time.
You can take care of yourself that's the greatest feeling in the whole entire world
Enough can’t be said about this one. Independent!! Love you Guys for recognizing and celebrating woman!

I will give the credit to this song for helping me on a spelling test back in 2006👌😂
Lil Crazy lol
Lmao right
song was a better at teaching kids then teachers
True
The song came out in late 2007 though .-.
Refused to believe that Lil Phat was 15 when they made this lol, R.I.P.
Not only is this jam for the women but for the fellas. Real G’s
This song is perfect for whenever you're in a rush to get somewhere!
Drive fast and play this song. It's strangely the perfect race song.
Damn havent heard this since a youngin especially on them subs. On that 2000's r&b rap nostalgia shit miss these bangers💯
I guess this song proves that rap doesnt always objectify women.
Jeremy Seal well this is actually made way back 8 years ago so it hasn't reached the expectations of 2016 limits
Jeremy Seal indeed
Jeremy Seal Amen

Sexualizing and objectification aren't necessarily the same thing.
