First off, I'm definitely going to have to pick T.I. You know, the rapper from Atlanta. The super tough guy. The rapper that always talks and dresses like he's so bad ass. I'll bet my favorite care bear stuffed animal that he's not. If you've ever seen him talk on t.v. or in interviews you have probably witnessed his annoying demeanor. T.I. I pick you!
My second pick would be Florida Governor Rick Scott. He not only looks like the crook that he is, but he also looks like a child molester. Doesn't he? Look at those creepy molesting eyes! Oh, my blood boils when I hear how stupid the citizens of this state, and furthermore, this country are. This dumb ass turned down more than two billion dollars from the Federal government to help assist our state in creating a light rail from Orlando to Tampa and possibly Miami. This asshole already ran a health care company into the ground by being corrupt and stealing money from Medicare and Medicaid. And the dumb citizens of this state vote for him. And why? So, Governor Rick Scott, please don't veto my request to kick your ass. I mean, technically you should be in prison right now getting it up your ass anyways.
Finally I would have to pick a royal rumble with Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj. I mean, how in the hell did either one of these ignorant and uneducated kids get so goddamn famous? Lil Wayne, maybe you used to be good. But the fact that you don't even write your lyrics down doesn't mean you're good. It means you're lazy. Here's your talent:
"Excuse my charisma, vodka with a spritzerCase in point. Those lyrics are terrible.
swagger down pat, call my shit Patricia
Young Money militia, and I am the commissioner
you don't want start Weezy, 'cause the F is for Finisher
so misunderstood, but what's a World without enigma?
two bitches at the same time, synchronized swimmers
got the girl twisted 'cause she open when you twist her
never met the bitch, but I fuck her like I missed her
life is the bitch, and death is her sister
sleep is the cousin, what a fuckin' family picture
you know father time, we all know mother nature
it's all in the family, but I am of no relation
no matter who's buying, I'm a celebration
black and white diamonds, fuck segregation
fuck that shit, my money up, you niggas just Honey Nut
Young Money running shit and you niggas just runner-ups
I don't feel I done enough, so I'ma keep on doing this shit
Lil Tunechi or Young Tunafish"
Now what about Nicki Minaj? Yeah, she's just as terrible. Every time I hear her annoying voice on the radio I wanna veer my car into the nearest telephone pole. People think she's so talented because she can do inflection in her voice? Five year old's can do that. Here's a taste of her so called.. "talent".
"Ok i was on my way to school i do's i me hopped out the drab grabbed my juciey i hop skipped and jumped past them hoopdies but wait i forgot to grab my lose sleeves i doubled right b-back like who's that i did a little dance b-kat-b-boom-kat i like how the jocks be watching me me so i grabbed my crotch and say hehe i be like bum stickety bum sticky bum while i popped ma gum they lookin tum tickety tum think they stepped in some uh i said excuse me hunny im b-bugs bunny aint funny got my guarantee aint gona if i may cos we the mean girls yes we're so fetch and when we in the yard be jumpin double dutch with back to the future pearl you were the best now i got everybody lookin at me i got everybody lookin at me"Wow. Sounds like an inner city second grader's attempt at writing an essay. Just plain terrible.
So...who would you take into the octagon?
I agree with you about Lil Wayne's and Nicki Minaj's lyrics. However, they do what they have to to make money. There's no doubt that they do not have the most intellectual lyrics but instead of blaming them, blame the people who listen to their music. These rappers are making their living by supplying the ignorant music to ignorant people who crave it.
ReplyDeleteI understand how you feel about Nicki Minaj, because i think her lyrics are about as dumbed down as they can get. But artist like her couldn't keep making music if people weren't buying it. Nicki's album went platinum in less than two months. Its kind of sad. But in the same light people turn to music for entertainment, not for it to be intellectually simulating. And I would probably take my Boss, My Supervisor and My Last Math Teacher.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way. I can't believe that people really listen to those things they are not saying anything at all it is just ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteI understand what you are saying about having fun picking who you want to fight, and it percisely helps me depict why I hate fighting for entertainment. In my opinion, fighting in a supervised, televised ring is exactly the same as gladiator fighting and as primitive as cavemen fighting over the last hunk of meat. Rap songs promote violence through the media, but ufc and others don't? I don't see why we return to our animalistic instincts of fighting, but since it is for entertainment and people aren't mad at each other it's okay and correct? I'm not trying to pick a fight, but I'd really like it if you could enlighten me to a different view, because for some reason I can't see the glory and interest in it. Likewise, you don't seem like an unintelligent meat head so i'd really like your input and conversation on the topic so I can have a better understanding of the sport generations have come to love. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteYou make a good point SMG. I'm sitting here trying to craft a response to your comment and I admit, it's a little hard to do. I'm no expert on the psychological aspects of the human element. I do believe that fighting is written into our genetic code, the old fight or flight, and I think that it will always be there. Humans have been fighting and killing since the beginning of time, and if you believe in the literal aspects of the Bible, since Cain and Able. (And they were the first children on this Earth) In a way we are similar to Pitbulls (I noticed your blog was about puppies) because pits can be loving and loyal dogs, but they have that killer instinct somewhere inside of them. All it takes is a little nudging and you can bring that instinct out and center. I believe this is the same way we, as humans, have evolved. And I believe we haven't evolved as much as we would like to think.
