Some of these songs are down right classics and we can’t fault them. We can however, have a laugh at how old they sound now in 2014. From fax machines to pagers, here are some of the best outdated rap lyrics!

1. ‘They get jealous when they see you with your mobile phone.’

2Pac – Changes (1998)

Mmmhmm. So jel.

2. N***a get the phone book look up in the yellow page, Lemme tell you how we finna get paid’.

Dead Prez – Hell Yea (2004)

Are phone books are still made? Anyone?!

3. ‘Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, when I was dead broke man I couldn’t picture this’

Notorious B.I.G – Juicy (1994)

Well no one can picture this anymore.





4. ‘I got this young chick, she so immature, She like, “Why you don’t buy me Reeboks no more?’

Jay Z – Girls (2001)

Ain’t nobody buy Reeboks no mo.

5. ‘I go to TRL, look how many hugs I get’

Eminem – White America (2002)

Well I’d imagine none, seen as MTV don’t even play music anymore.

6. ‘Actually, anything you got to ask me, Fax me’

Mase – Wanna Hurt Mase? (1997)

Ok cool. Let me know in a couple of days if it comes through?

7. ‘And although it seems heaven-sent, We ain’t ready to see a black president’

2Pac – Changes (1998)

Oh contraire Tupac.

8. ‘You make me wanna throw my pager out the window, tell MCI to cut the phone calls’

Destiny’s Child – Bug a Boo (1998)

I’d imagine the girls have found other ways of venting their anger by now.

9. ‘Beep me 911 or call me on my cell phone, I’ll call you back to see what you gon’ tell me’

Missy Elliot – Beep me 911 (1998)

Yeah, I’ll just call ya Missy. K?
