  Brouhaha and the Fork is your daily music review, taking a 2004 single and either loving it (the Fork) or hating it (brouhaha).
Listen to the single and tell me if you agree. urlLink I Like That -Houston feat. Chingy, Nate Dogg, and I-20 Current Billboard Hot 100 position: #13 Earlier this year, VH1 and Blender Magazine awarded the #29 spot on their 50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs…Ever countdown to Meat Loaf for his 1993 #1 single from Back into Hell , the sequel to Bat out of Hell . Looking into the bubbly balladeer’s vague lyrics (“I would do anything for love, but I won’t do that”), VH1 asked for the definition of the continually mentioned “that” and got no worthy answer. Eleven years later, it seems that this summer’s hottest rookie, Houston , is rapping himself into the same dilemma with “I Like That,” a club anthem that, while unquestioning getting millions to sing along, offers no valid description for the overused pronoun. Detective listening provides only one hint: Whatever “that” is, it’s bouncing, banging, and hearty, evidence being the beat that fuses digital funk bass, synth trumpet calls, 3000-cool organs, and techno bird whistles.
But wait a second; In 2003, guest lyricist Chingy put out his first single, “Right Thurr,” which featured this chorus line: “I like the way you do that right thurr.” Dammit. It seems that post-2000 Southern rappers have a certain “that” which pleases them, all the while unbeknownst to the rest of the world (read: white people). Putting all those findings together, we define “that” as an action Meat Loaf will not perform but the current urban community loves. So whether you’re head-bobbing to “I Like That” because you know what “that” is or intently listening and awaiting the case-solving clue, Houston seems to have your ears perked, an act that even Meat Loaf would do. The Verdict: 7.7/10 - The Fork (3.85/5) 2004 Wild Card Singles Club Entry
