  • Josh from Champaign, IlDon't you touch my PBJ.
  • George from Vancouver, CanadaI don't condone messin' with other people's pu--y, but the song isn't saying go do it, they're asking if you do, &, seemingly, claimig they're okay with it.
  • Camille from Toronto, Oh I don’t condone cheating in any way, but these cleverly naughty yet clean lyrics mixed with the innocent, upbeat Jackson 5 ABC tune looping in the background and easy-to-sing-along-to chorus is extremely fun to listen to.
  • John from Sunshine Coast, AustraliaExcuse me you need to listen to this song properly: O is for other P is for people the last P well that's not that simple. It's kinda like another way to call a cat a kitty.

    It depends on your views but the last P stands for partners or if you are possessive it stands for property - people who realize they don't own their partners are down with OPP but the gender relative alternatives are other peoples pussy or other peoples penis.
  • Yaakov Globman from Illadel/philly, PaOPP used to mean, "Only Peppa's Property!" On youtube, you can find a lot of people jackin' (rapping on top of) the beat,
    check it out, don't sleep! Also, check out Trigga Treach's mixtape, "tribal treach." I used to have da god's ill Naughty by Nature watch, which their management says they can't replace cuz the guy who made it doesn't work there anymore, but someone's gotta have it, willing 2 pay mad loot to replace it, help!
    When I had their watch, some girl told me, "they're old, played out," I wuz like, "my watch says I'm naughty by my nature, but don't mentally rape a brotha talkin' bout how they played out, old, cuz I ain't tryna hear that crap, so put that ish on hold as i wrecks, cuz ain't nobody can spit like Treach snaps necks as he wrecks, so don't eff wit da blessed, unless u can do better, if not, shut up and get yer ish 2gether!" having shared that, I feel so much better!
  • Lara from Hackensack, NjIn "Sister Act II" they sing "You know me, I'm down with G-O-D" in their finale.
  • Jared from Memphis, TnTreach was in lots of movies including Juice, The Playas Ball, Jasons Lyric, Metoer Man, and 3am. He was also on a couple of episodes of Oz, Third Watch, and Living Single.
