Lyfe Jennings Smile lyrics & video : 1st Verse: Feels like Im in heaven Rollin my 67 Cadillac DeVille bumpin that old Sugar Hill Today Im living proof your worst fear cam.

But now, he’s back with his personal, passionate brand of R&B music. He went back to jail for three years following and altercation with his children’s mother. His first release came out after he’d spent 10 years in jail. Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, while making it to 5 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. Ohio native Jennings has a history, as most of his fans know, of trouble with the law. The metaphor-free track is a stark portrayal of "this crazy, lazy lady" who is using a baby for revenge, and when Jennings sings about his friends dismissing him as a worrywart, it captures with crystal clarity the isolation that so many experience when confronting a crisis. About Must Be Nice 'Must Be Nice' was the 2004 first single released from R&B/soul musician Lyfe Jennings debut album, Lyfe 268-192.
It's only one side of what is a most definitely a complicated story, but "Greedy"'s tale of being chased by the cops for child support is a chilling can of worms few artists could open so confidently. "Made Up My Mind," "She's Got Kids," and "Must Be Nice" all display the kind of Gil Scott-Heron realism meets D'Angelo smokiness and Bilal soul-searching that had Jennings take the amateur title five times at the Apollo, but "Greedy" is the album's centerpiece.

Opening with an intro and going right into a talky interlude, you just know Lyfe 268-192 is a heavy-with-message, ambitious album that's going to flirt with ponderous disaster.
