hip hop

If last summer was my summer of Harry Potter, this summer is my summer of Lil Wayne. I remember Sherod showing me I'm Me like back in winter. It's so heavy. I like how everyone talks about Kanye being cocky, but no one really gets on Lil Wayne's case for constantly calling himself the best rapper alive because he can back it up.

Alex and I have been talking about the Lollipop remix today. If you haven't heard it you should (http://youtube.com/watch?v=AU0bp_-RQA4). Wayne name checks Hewlett Packard, and by the end he's talking about safe sex.

  3. colin, how do you maintain this inverted world where you listen to bands that maybe a few hundred people have heard of and yet you haven't heard the biggest single of the year. that's not sarcasm, i'm honestly impressed. and if you've listened to the girl talk, you've listened to lil wayne.

  4. does dan mean "if you've listened to girl talk" or does he actually mean "if you've listened to the girl talk"? which girl?
