When this particular scene came on I was like "This my shit". I felt that nigga energy, it was the most defining part of the whole movie to me. As a rapper you had tah feel this. You in yah homie's studio/bedroom and the beat is slappin' and you on the mic killin it and EVERYBODY in the house is like DAMN! You remember this screne when that beat first start hittin' when you was in the theater? God Damn!!! In 2005 I modeled my Hustle @ Flow Awards after the feel of this moment.

I remember it was in San Leandro and it was my first ever show I had thrown. My Dj was Dj-X1 from KPOO 89.5FM out of San Francisco. When the place started to pack in, around 11pm, X1 put this song, Whoop That Trick, on and the club went bananas. This movie been my anthem for the longest, I'll never stop pushin. I wonder if anyone else eas affected by this movie to that degree?

yea you might want to smack up your graphic artist too, the flyers you have all say that, they should have double checked.

otherwise I feel you, that part of the movie was juiced up. its a good feeling to have laid out a beat, and just fuck around and freestyle. good energy

I could get with that track in the club, but otherwise i couldn't ride to it, id feel like I was cruising around for a fight or something

Don't get so seroius about @ thats' how I meant it. Do you question phresh when you know it's fresh? This is rap bend the rules. When I'm in the streets niggas read it and don't take a second look they just read it and know what it means. "Online" hip hop cats start breakin' out thesaurses and shit. Who tha next nigga gone start whinin' bout ah symbol? "I aint gonna hate on you but...nigga please."

Aint nothin serious, except some serious grammar issues going on with your ideology.

Who the fuck uses the AT symbol & thinks everyone is going to just know off hand it's supposed to mean AND? C'mon man, use your head for something other than a place to put your doo-rag.



No I do not because I realize, that in the English language ph makes an F sound, while in all reality, the @ symbol certainly does not imply the & sound. or anything like it.... in fact they mean 2 completely different things.

Like I said I aint been on here hating on your silly antics, I read & laugh a bit, but I aint said one damn word to you aside from this game-goofy bullshit.

Nigga what is you babblin' about? Read the bottom informantion.

What do you call the @ symbol used in e-mail addresses?

That little "a" with a circle curling around it that is found in email addresses is most commonly referred to as the "at" symbol.

Surprisingly though, there is no official, universal name for this sign. There are dozens of strange terms to describe the @ symbol.

Several languages use words that associate the shape of the symbol with some type of animal.

For instance, some quirky names for the @ symbol include:
apenstaartje - Dutch for "monkey's tail"
snabel - Danish for "elephant's trunk"
kissanhnta - Finnish for "cat's tail"
klammeraffe - German for "hanging monkey"
papaki - Greek for "little duck"
kukac - Hungarian for "worm"
dalphaengi - Korean for "snail"
grisehale - Norwegian for "pig's tail"
sobachka - Russian for "little dog"
Before it became the standard symbol for electronic mail, the @ symbol was used to represent the cost or weight of something. For instance, if you purchased 6 apples, you might write it as 6 apples @ $1.10 each.

With the introduction of e-mail came the popularity of the @ symbol. The @ symbol or the "at sign" separates a person's online user name from his mail server address. For instance, [email protected]. Its widespread use on the Internet made it necessary to put this symbol on keyboards in other countries that have never seen or used the symbol before. As a result, there is really no official name for this symbol.

The actual origin of the @ symbol remains an enigma.

History tells us that the @ symbol stemmed from the tired hands of the medieval monks. During the Middle Ages before the invention of printing presses, every letter of a word had to be painstakingly transcribed by hand for each copy of a published book. The monks that performed these long, tedious copying duties looked for ways to reduce the number of individual strokes per word for common words. Although the word "at" is quite short to begin with, it was a common enough word in texts and documents that medieval monks thought it would be quicker and easier to shorten the word "at" even more. As a result, the monks looped the "t" around the "a" and created it into a circle-eliminating two strokes of the pen.

Another story tells the @ symbol was used as an abbreviation for the word amphora. Amphora was the unit of measurement that determined the amount held by the large terra cotta jars that were used to ship grain, spices and wine. Giorgio Stabile, an Italian scholar, discovered the @ symbol in a letter written in 1536 by a Florentine trader named Francesco Lapi. It seems likely that some industrious trader saw the @ symbol in a book transcribed by monks using the symbol and appropriated it for use as the amphora abbreviation. This would also explain why it became common to use the symbol in relation to quantities of something.
