"If yo' ho only know dat she was gettin' f___ed on the 7th flo'!" (UM Hurricane rap)
Just wow...
Here's the song: hxxp://x500.putfile.com/videos/a8-31812063186.mp3
EDIT: Another link to the song: hxxp://media.putfile.com/7th-Floor-Crew
Suffice it to say that the song isn't remotely SFW. ;)
Quote:
It’s extremely charming; imagine Matthew Sweet meets Jim Nabors meets whatever the opposite of Kenny Chesney is. We’ve yet to confirm the identities of all the players involved, save for linebacker Tavares Gooden, who drops this:
“and he brought in all his 7th floor friends
She found it was [unintelligible] the Miami Football Team
It’s also the 7th floor king ding-a-lings
She thought Five Two was just my number then she realized
you multiply the bitch up then you get my dick size.”

UM FOOTBALL
Players' crude rap draws ire, fire
A sexually explicit song made by some Hurricanes players two years ago came to light on the Internet.

University of Miami athletic director Paul Dee said Thursday that a sexually explicit rap recording made two years ago by a group that included student-athletes was ''offensive and demeaning'' and not condoned by the university. But he also said it should be put in perspective as something done privately with no intention of becoming public.
The nine-minute song surfaced Tuesday on the Internet. The rappers include current members of UM's third-ranked football team. One player, who was identified as ''T Gooden'' and called himself number ''Five Two,'' likely is linebacker Tavares Gooden, a junior who wears No. 52 and is out for the season after shoulder surgery.
Dee said separately in a written statement that ''any students whose voices can be identified will be subject to appropriate discipline and/or counseling,'' but he told reporters late Thursday afternoon there had been no immediate discipline.
NO PUNISHMENT YET
''I haven't seen anything yet. There hasn't been any [punishment] at this point,'' Dee said. ``It will be dealt with within the department, and hopefully we'll deal with it in a number of ways, including talking to people about what's appropriate and what's inappropriate in certain circumstances. . . . [UM coach] Larry [Coker] and I will discuss the matter.''
A blog describing the audio tape was written Tuesday on a Miamity.com website authored by a Miami student, whom ESPN.com identified as Kyle Munzenrieder. The site had a link to the song, featuring several males describing lewd sexual acts in detail, including group sex references. The group calls itself ''The Seventh Floor Crew,'' Munzenrieder wrote, referring to team members who lived in Mahoney Residential College (campus housing).
''Sorry for the crudity,'' wrote ESPN.com columnist Pat Forde, 'but there's really no other way to convey the subject matter. My tally of the profanities laced throughout this song: 29 F-bombs, 15 references to `hos' and 18 references to 'bitches.' Plus many other words and phrases unfit even for cyberprint.''
Forde also relayed an exchange from an ESPN.com chat with Sinorice Moss on Wednesday: Mike (Boston): ``Sinorice!!!! What do you think about the rap song that some of your teammates put out? Seventh floor crew or something like that.''
Moss: ``That's something that they did like two years ago. A couple of freshmen and older guys made a rap song. It was a really cool song.''
Some of the rappers who identified themselves on the recording: ''Marvelous,'' ''Big Nick,'' 'Lil' New,'' ''T Buck,'' ''Dub C,'' ''G Reg,'' ''Big Beast,'' ''T Red'' and ``Modern Man.''
UM president Donna Shalala was out of town Thursday and referred all calls, through a university spokeswoman, to Dee. Coker spoke to reporters but would not elaborate.
''The concern on this audio thing that's out there, the statement has been made on it,'' Coker said. ``It was two years ago. Some of our players were involved in it. We know that. Paul Dee made a statement on it. Case closed. Any questions on Georgia Tech?''
Coker was asked, ``Are you concerned about focus with all the stuff going on now?''
TEAM STILL FOCUSED
''Well,'' he replied, ``There's no stuff going on. The only stuff we have going on is Georgia Tech, and there's no problem with focus, because all we have control of is what we do on Saturday.''
The Hurricanes have spent the past several years trying to erase a thug image that plummeted in Dennis Erickson's tenure (1989 through '94) and perpetuated early in the Butch Davis years, when several of the players he inherited from Erickson were arrested.
In late 1995, the NCAA put the Hurricanes on probation and took away 24 scholarships over two years -- not including seven self-imposed scholarship losses. The violations included Pell Grant fraud, improper employment compensation and failed drug tests resulting in no suspensions.
Davis and now Coker, well respected around the nation for his character, turned around the program's image almost full circle.
''We care about our image,'' Dee said Thursday. ``But we have to keep this in perspective. This was a private group of people sitting in a dorm room.''
Georgia Tech has its own image problems. Not only did the NCAA place Georgia Tech on two years' probation Thursday for using 17 academically ineligible athletes in four sports, including 11 football players, a Fulton County judge also ordered the school to reinstate defensive back Reuben Houston to the team.
Houston was suspended from the team this season after being arrested in connection with a marijuana distribution operation.
