https://peertube.weidensees.net/videos/watch/a0432e90-3564-4c1a-a973-2b4ea0011825 "It's A Shame (My Sister)" ist ein weltweiter Hip-Hop-Hit der britischen Rapperin Monie Love aus dem Jahr 1990. Der Song ist Teil ihres Debütalbums Down To Earth und wurde vor allem durch seinen souligen Refrain, der von der Band The Spinners geborgt wurde, sowie die starken Rap-Strophen bekannt. Der Track ist eine Ode an die Selbstbestimmung und eine Ermutigung an Freundinnen, sich aus toxischen oder schlechten Beziehungen zu lösen. Die Single erreichte Anfang der 90er Jahre internationale Top-Ten-Platzierungen und gehört bis heute zu den bekanntesten Klassikern des Conscious- und Golden-Era-Hip-Hop. Monie Love (geboren als Simone Wilson in London) gilt als eine Pionierin des britischen Hip-Hop. In den USA machte sie sich als Schützling von Queen Latifah einen Namen. Lyrics: My sister, my sister, tell me what the trouble is I'll try to listen good and give the best advice that I can give so, what's up with you this time? Your honey took a dive and now he's playin with your mind? Oh no, this can not be accepted The feelings that belong to you must be protected Hold up, time out, I shout, get it together sister Tell him to be nice or ditch the mister It's a shame, the way you mess around with my heart It's a shame, the way you, hurt me! Get back on your feet please I'm beggin you to check out all your own needs Don't let nobody see you in a state of grievin, over the brother there's another possibility Which is for you to work out where you went wrong I guarantee to you that it will not take long For you to make your mind up if the two of you belong You know where honey's head at, and where he's comin from Get it out your system, don't be another victim This took the nerve, oh boy, he really picked em, whaddya know It's time for you to show you're not sleepin A progress report on the two of you, you're keepin Peekin through the peephole, to see if honey's sneakin You estimated right, that night the other weekend Collectively the facts should conclude the decision You caught the brother in a terrible disposition It's a shame, the way you mess around with my heart It's a shame, the way you, hurt me! That's it, pack it up, be wise my sister cause the facts keep stackin up, tell him, to kiss the you know what Make sure the door is shut, behind you I do believe the brother's out of luck, and stuck But that's not, your P-are-O-be -L-E-M You gotta let him go and let him know this is the end You've been kissed, dissed, listed as a dumb one I hope he likes sad songs, he's gonna hum one He's been a dumb dumb and that's the way it is forever There comes a time, when you're at the end of your tether and you know, I think you went FAR beyond that So it was bound to backtrack And smack you with an irksome vengeance as it attacks you Makin sure you get the full entire view of who's to blame, at the end, of the game Things will never be the same And it's a cryin shame It's a shame, the way you mess around with my heart It's a shame, the way you, hurt me! #90shiphop #MonieLove Thu, 04 Jun 2026 20:24:43 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://peertube.weidensees.net https://peertube.weidensees.net/client/assets/images/icons/icon-1500x1500.png https://peertube.weidensees.net/videos/watch/a0432e90-3564-4c1a-a973-2b4ea0011825 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://peertube.weidensees.net/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
