This single was the 1st original release by Carlton Zeus in August of 2010 as a heads up to the upcoming album.
Since release, Sharpie Solo has caused quite the buzz for its catchy feel and word play, further embraced with national radio play and home made music video that fans believed to be the inspiration behind the concept of Toby Keith's "Red Solo Cup" video; causing such a commotion, that Toby Keith himself had to share his thoughts on it.
In good spirit, Zeus dismissed the ordeal as merely a coincidence as Sharpie Solo continues to make its rounds world-wide.
The Spread is an assortment of remixes put together by Zeus and his high school friend Rob Almaguer with remixes ranging from Cindy Lauper and Brandon Flowers to Edwyn Collins. Upon release in September of 2010, the mixtape spread like wildfire with over 10,000 downloads to date and was listed Top Album of 2011 by The San Antonio Current.
Lyrics
Sharpie Solo
(1st verse)
Hottie Hottie, she likes to party, i was already on Bacardi when i stumbled out the lobby, just as long as i'm out tonight, i might accommodate the Sprite with a toast to life, Chitty Bang Bang rolling with a night rider, like Hasselhoff, and yeah her ass is soft loving how she let go, replay The Cure while we get into Depeche Mode
(chorus)
if we get locked up tonight, make sure that we're doing it right, if i forgot your name, here's a Sharpie and a Solo cup
(2nd verse)
we by the clothes line, she tried to pin me down getting kind of hot, so we simmer down she gave me "good game" and an "at'a boy" told me mama warned her bout them Texas boys she wanted me to take her to the Alamo, see the Spurs and the fans in the battle mode and got a little lost in the convo, talking real estate in a decked out condo, so we back track to basics, head back to the keg, can a lady get a leg lift i'm number 1, 3rd, and the runner up a little bit of crown and a pep-talk we pop lock, we raza - we salsa, this casa, too much kielbasa, lot of actors, no Oscars, cheese pizza, nobody tops us
(chorus)
(3rd verse)
underground, yes, like tarantulas and show a little flash like your camera does, put 5k down and they ran with us, never gonna stop, i got that stamina, 4 am at Chachos, ordering them King Kong nachos, you ain't eating all that, $20 down - all that hold it down, if you throw it up, i make $40 bucks almost got popped for a DUI, until the cop got to see you cry he said "this is a break and you should be gone.. now somebody please take this pussy home"
(chorus)
