That Chicken Noodle Soup Dance Shyt...

(UPDATE: Billy Sunday's explanation of Chicken Noodle Soup. Graphic but interesting)

Some of ya'll MIGHT be mad at me, but I don't really have a problem with THIS...



As long as it's kids dancing like this. To me, it's just kids having fun and dancing. It's no different than the Harlem Shake or the Snap dance stuff we've all come to either love or hate. I personally don't like the chicken noodle soup dance crap, but I wouldn't be mad if I saw my lil cousins doing it just to have fun and wild out for a second.

Now if adults do this dance, I think it's something a little different. First and foremost, as a grown-a$$ adult, you shouldn't be doing dances with names like "Chicken Noodle Soup" or "Beat Your Feet". Point blank. Just think about that for a hot second! Stick to Leaning Back, letting ya shoulda lean, and Ponin' de river and all that simple shyt. Or perhaps just "Twist your body from Side 2 Side."

But aside from that. If you are a grown and somewhat edu-ma-cated adult, you can see that this dance may be interpreted as blackface-ish. So for that reason, as an educated adult, you should stop trying to do the dance and just go eat yourself a nice hot bowl of chicken noodle soup (I prefer Lipton's Soup Secrets).

This might just be the next big dance craze for the "kids" so expect to get more familiar with this crap. I'm trying to be open-minded here for the kids because I'd rather see this than see them poppin their booties, doing Michael Jackson pelvic thrusts, or some other ghetto a$$ shyt they've seen in a video. ANYTHING that's does not have sexual innuendos as part of the dance is okay by me when it comes to kids. Sexual innuendos or violent innuendos. But of course, the jury's out and people are really blow by the fact that this dance is picking up steam.

Watch. We are ALL going to be doing this stupid dance in the club, just to try to see if we can do it!

You should see Chris Brown do it. You know he tears it up.

Aside from the dumbness of the dance, the lyrics actually say "Chicken noodle soup with a soda on the side"???? Please tell me I'm WRONG! Please tell me they aren't saying something that makes absolutely NO SENSE! "...with a soda on the side"

Come on man!

Then again, I must say that MOST rappers to the same thing..."Paddy cake paddy cake microwave"...Now that's a cooking coke reference but it STILL doesn't make sense even if you understand the words and their figurative meaning.

I listen to hip-hop all the time and find shyt that just doesn't make sense at all. I guess I just write it off and don't really speak on it unless it's blatantly bad usage. But I see Imma have to be a little more critical with my ears.
