Misc ="I Wanna Talk About Me" is a single, released in 2001, by American
country music artistToby Keith . The song was his seventh Number One single on the "Billboard" Hot Country Singles & Tracks charts.Like Keith's 1998 single "Getcha Some", "I Wanna Talk About Me" is cited as an example of
country rap , due to the use of a strong beat and rhythmically spoken lyrics.cite web |url=http://www.songwriteruniverse.com/braddock.htm |title=Bobby Braddock article |accessdate=2007-07-19 |last=Crossan |first=Jeff |work=Songwriter Universe] cite web |url=http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename=article&node=&contentId=A58685-2002Jan16 |title="Talk": Singing In the Key of Me |accessdate=2007-07-19 |last=Farhi |first=Paul |year=2002 |month=January |work=WashingtonPost.com |publisher=Washington Post] "I Wanna Talk About Me" tells of a male's frustration in his inability to converse with his partner, who wants to talk about herself. In the chorus, the singer states "I like talking about you, you, you, you, usually / But occasionally / I wanna talk about me".Blake Shelton was originally slated to record the song. However, his label turned it down, as they thought it would be too risky of a debut single.Chart performance
