This world is filled with a lot of hatred and just plain ole fuckedupedness. The suicide bombings in London this morning are proof positive that we live in a world where people can justify taking the lives of others or harming others to prove a point. I don’t know who’s responsible, nor do I know what point was being proven, but I do know that I’d like to say fuck you to all those individuals who feel the need to kill or maim others for some fucked up ideal they have.
Hmmm…
[***SIDENOTE: I know that many people are able to feel no remorse for attacks like this or even that which happened during September 11, 2001. I've even heard some of my own friends tell me that America had it coming and it's just too damn bad. Well if this is you and you think that countries that expereience terrorist attacks deserve it and can justify the deaths of innocent people due to foreign policy or anything of the sort, then I'd also like to say to YOU, well, fuck you and die. Thank you.***]
To counteract the pain and hurt that the world is feeling, I’ve decided to go the other route. You see, what the world needs now is love, sweet love. In fact, we all need to do a little dance, make a little love, hell, we all need to just get down tonight…get down tonight.
I realized one day that there is a lost art. Well there’s not just one lost art. In fact there are probably lots of lost arts to include underwater basketweaving and snow angels. However, the lost art that I’m speaking of is one that technology has invariably destroyed along with the possible increased laziness of the masses of people.
I’m talking about the art of the slow jamz tape AKA the get the drawz tape. Today we’d have to replace the word tape with CD, but it just doesn’t have the same ring to it. In the ’80s and early ’90s, people used to buy cassette tapes left and right. Men and women alike would craft their own personal get the drawz tapes for those special occasions when that special lady or manfriend was going to be making that stop after the movies at their humble abode. They’d pop in the tape, let the music set the mood, and let the smooth sounds of Christopher Williams or Al B. Sure! get the shaggin’ on and poppin’. And make no mistake, everybody KNEW what was going on when that tape hit the deck.
Times just aren’t that good anymore.
Nowadays, nobody takes time to craft a slow jamz CD that has the intention of laying the soundtrack for that good 2 to 3 minute joyride into erotic pleasure.
Well I have. Sometime last year, a contest was borne between a friend and myself about who could create the best Get The Drawz CD.
I won.
Mostly because she not only didn’t finish her CD, but it just wasn’t as good as mine. Period. You see, there are certain tenets of the get the drawz CD that must be adhered too. You must start it off slow, then speed it up a little bit, and then bring it back home to that point where you know, you’re required to talk or some shit after you get the drawz.
[***ANOTHER SIDENOTE: I'd really like to know the actual correct spelling of "drawz". For instance, is it really "drawers"?? Because that looks dumb. Not that "draws" or "drawz" looks so sexxy either, I'm just saying. Or maybe this is one of those words that should only be said and never written down, like supercallafragrealisticexpeallydocious...or however the fuck you spell that. ***]
Well, to increase the love and love making going on, and because I know none of you bohos out there are making sex tapes, well music sex tapes, not R. Kelly-Eve-Tommy Lee/Pamela Anderson sex tapes, I decided to provide one option for a get the drawz CD with songs mostly from the early ’90s to last year. Please, in order to create the love and further the pheromone phun, strap up.
Without further ado…
Panama Jackson Presents Get The Drawz Deluxe: 16 Tracks For Dat Azz!!
1. Joe-Somebody’s Gotta Be On Top
Now see, if you start the evening off with this song, you set the mood, the purpose, and the point ALL with one song. Joe doesn’t get nearly enough credit for crafting great R&B in the late ’90s like he deserves. Nope, muhfuckas wanna talk about Ginuwine and shit.
2. Boyz II Men-Uhh Ahh
So they’ve fallen off harder than Sean Paul (the Jamaican) that doesn’t change the fact that they were making that straight up good music early on. Now most of their music tends to be on the beautiful and not the sloppy, comefuckmedaddy/ma type songs, however, this song is guaranteed to get it on and poppin’, from the countdown on til Micheal Deepvoicednegro saying “injection”…you KNOW what’s going down.
10…9…8…
Quickbreakinthaentertainment: What the fuck DID happen to Sean Paul. One day he was everywhere the next nobody gave a shit about him. Must be because he’s lightskinneded.
Potentially some of you will have to stop at this point and go thru that little “latency” phase. You know the point where you’re lady kind of waits around while you look at the ceiling and feel ashamed because you are indeed a minuteman. It’s okay, they got Niagra and everything now, though if you have an erection that last more than 4 hours, go see a doctor.
3. Jodeci-Freek ‘N You
Does this song even NEED an explanation. Honestly, this gets my vote as best Jodeci song ever. A close second would be “Cry For You” but it’s open for debate.
Actually no its not. What I say is law!
4. Xscape-Softest Place On Earth
I’m sure some of you have never heard this song. For the love of everything velvet, this song is that crack when it comes to between the sheetedness. You need this in your life.
5. LSG-My Body
The fact that all three of these men could quite easily be gay and actually singing to eachother is of no consequence, this song is guaranteed to start to speed things up a little. Though it also began the annoying trend of songs that sounded exactly like this shit from Silk and other no name ass singers that you don’t know of today. All produced by the same negro, De-Lite something or other.
6. Usher-That’s What It’s Made For
(And you guys should be ready to go again by this point, if not, she must REALLY love you.)
Hands down, the most focused song on Usher’s Confessions album. It’s a little faster and let’s you know exactly what its made for. Though I do have some beef with the fact that he “accidentally” went raw…eh…shit happens, right??? Right???
By the way, to all those folks out there who think its just men who will look past the fact that they have no protection, its pure and utter bullshit. Women do the same thing. Apparently, when you’re REALLY feeling it, sometimes folks just lose all sense of logic and say fuck it, literally and figuratively. It ain’t just men!!!
Yes…men ain’t the only ones who don’t think!!!!
7. Silk-Freak Me
Yes, everybody’s favorite group that fell the fuck off has made an appearance. Personally, “Lose Control” is my favorite song on this album but this song just adds a more playful tinge to the festivities. Hmm…you know what, this is a classic R&B album.
Panama has proclaimed that Silk’s Lose Control is a classic album.
It was written.
8. Profyle-Damn
Now I see the WTF??? expressions on faces right now. Probably because you don’t know who Profyle is. But yes, I have this album and yes I like it and yes this song has the perfect speed, to include the stoccato stops and starts to give you the perfect rhythm. Damn indeed…DAMN…indeed! Trust me on this one.
9. 112-Anywhere
“we can do it anywhere…”
Nothing more needs to be said. That’s not true, the rap at the end is pointless but it fit at the time, now Lil Zane is a hasbeen that never was. BUT…he can do it anywhere!! Great ass song! Pun intended.
10. Jodeci-Alone
It is not possible to make an ass CD without Jodeci showing up more than once. It just isn’t. They were kings of getting ass back in the day. Hell there music proved that as an ugly singing ass black man, you too can pull Mary J. Blige. Yes, there music taught us to not only love, it also taught us about loving somebody for whats on the inside…umm…
I’m sorry but that last line is just funny.
11. Jagged Edge-Slow Motion
This is the point where we start slowing it down a little bit. You know after you’re both (or all 3/4/5) of you are tired from all that sped up action that occured in the middle of the CD. I mean you still got your motion going, but its just slow…ya know??!!!?!
That rhymed.
12. Tevin Campbell-Shhhh
“I wanna do you after school like some homework…”
Hmm…sounds like some shit R. Kelly would say. However, this song is damn near perfect.
13. Boyz II Men-50 Candles
I don’t know how many people remember this song from the NathanMichaelShawnWanya album but I’ll be DAMNED if it ain’t the perfect oil your woman down smack it up flip it rub it down song. That way you can feel the sweat runnin’ all ova yo boooooooooooooody.
14. Johnny Gill-Let’s Just Run Away
This was on the Mo’ Money soundtrack, one of the best soundtracks EVER. Okay, that’s not true, but it was good and this song just topped it all off. If you haven’t heard this song, PLEASE go find a copy of this. You’re life will be better and you’ll get points for coming up with a song that most folks don’t even remember. You might get some extra hip rotator cuff action or something off this shit…you know, if that’s your thing. Hell you might get flipped upside down and…well, you do the imaginationeering, which is a side profession of engineering.
It’s the prequel.
15. Janet Jackson-Anytime, Anyplace
I’m sure this needs no explanation as EVERYBODY would think to put this on an ass CD. Plus its Janet. She has to make an appearance somewhere.
16. Usher-Can You Handle It??
I just like this song for its erotic questionasking ass feel. While you’re sitting there talking its like, “girl, can you handle it???” Fellas, if she says yes…I got one more song as a bonus cut that will make sure you can put youre best “foot” forward, one more time to prove your point!!!
Bonus Cut: Mad Cobra-Flexx
This encore should be enough for both parties to feel good and gully and simultaneously drift off to sleep, assuming it was “knock me out with one shot for the rest of the night” type pleasure…if not, then just go home.
Feel free to use this mixtape at your desire (pun intended) and get the drawz…
…for the love of mankind.
It seemed like I was the only one of my friends who knew about that Profyle!
This is a great list. Memories!!! Good baby makin music.
And its SO sad about the people in London.
Someone was just telling me last night he compiled a “baby making” cd. I ain’t trying to make no damn babies, but I’d still listen to the cd, in the right company that is.
“5. LSG-My Body

Damn Panama, did I miss the memo on LeVert, Sweat and Gill being gay? Johnny Gill is the first man that made me feel like a woman, I swear he still gets me hot. So back off on him at least!
How can you forget Brown Skin, by India.Arie? I know she’s pretensious as hell and you hate her, but that is THE 2nd best song to get it on to (first is Between the Sheets). Unless you only do light-skinndeded people, you must add Brown Skin to your collection.
you a fool boy. your list is a trip.
YES! YES! YES! I was almost done taking off the drawz by the time I got finished reading your list. I must say, you have very good taste in ‘Drawz Getting’ music. Especially JJ’s “Anytime, Anyplace,” and you even had that Joe song “Somebody’s Got To Be On Top.” Usher’s “That’s What It’s Made For”… uh, let’s just say I can’t listen to that song in the daytime. If I do, I play it really low because I don’t want anybody to hear it ’cause it’s so nasty LOL. And you even mentioned my favorite, 112. Are you selling copies?
your list was quite on point… may have to steal some of your songs
Shhiiiiitttt! I’ve got a good number of these songs on a CD I made not too long ago. One of my favorites that was not mentioned is Prince’s Insatiable. It’s a great song and it last for a good time. Man, you had some GREAT picks…….to bad I won’t be using a “get the draws” CD to actually get the draws any time soon. Maybe I should give mine to somebody else, lol!
Can I get one of those CD’s? My $9.99 is in the mail. Thanks!
I’m so proud that you had not ONE reference to an R-ah Kelly song on the list as I am not a fan for many reasons. (Listen to “S*x Weed”, one of the all time worst songs ever written, on Tp3: Reloaded and you will know why.)
I love all of the songs on your booty getting cd and there are quite a few I could add. Anything slow by JOE is guaranteed to make me do a lot of things that can’t be mentioned here. Another one is “Seduction” by Ursher – it’s so sexxxy, just like you P
LOL@Donna. Shiiiiiit…you need to know that it’s Johnny Gill who is the main target of all the gay rumors.
Great list, Dr. Jackson. Between this list and the slow jams CD I got in May….lawd, it’s gonna be a grrrrrrreat summer.
Respect…
Ha ha I remember when you made this CD. Good selection my dear pal.
“SHHHhh” is my fav.
No Tony Toni Tone’? The Prince version of Shhhh was better. But I guess Tevin gets the point across. Profyle…hummm…how much did they play their video on Video Soul.
Love It!!! You should also add Marques Houston’s “NAKED” mmmmmmmmmm…..
FYI Marques Houston’s Naked will be on my Making Myself Throw Up Until I Pass Out CD. Little Roger needs to quit.
I have to add “your body’s callin’” by R. kelly to that list. That first album is just unreal.
I agree with V… “Your Body’s Callin” will forever be a favorite of mine.
Testimonial: As an owner of the aformentioned CD, I can testify to it’s… uh… effectiveness. The shit gets the job done. You sir, reign slightly supreme (minus points for JE even though I like that song).
Hmm… interesting list. Ya’ll whipper-snappers don’t know nothing bout no ‘bed-squeakin’ music. LOL… while I like a lot of the songs on this list… when it comes to getting down… I go back to the old school… The O’Jays, The Isleys, Marvin…mmph. Nothing like the masters to put an old chick in the mood. LOL
And Will – glad I could make your summer a little brighter! LOL
Oooh… I didn’t see the Lose Control mention. All I can say is wooow… couple that with Comforter by Shai, and we’re in business. LOL
Just like some old fogey (pointing at X) to come thru here talking about us young whippersnappers don’t know nothing about that bed-squeakin’ music…
I can get down with marvin but i know how to jangalang to some new school to…diversity my sister, is not just a term but a way of life!
I’m dumb.
haha..sum good stuff on there. keep sum compilation disks comin, ima have to start buyin blanks CDs industrial size
I think you need to put a little disclaimer here somewhere…If I showed up with this CD, I would be laughed out of the bedroom.
…Just sayin’.
I’ve NEVER gotten through a WHOLE ‘gettin the drawz’ CD so I’d like to offer an EP as oppose to a whole disk:

4. ‘Dat’s What I’m Talkin’ Bout’ Missy & R.Kelly (tryin to make it last)
5. ‘In The Air Of The Night’ Phil Collins (starts off slow and xplodes at the end…perfect for orgasm)
