“Runnin’ this sh*t like I got four thighs”
–Lil’ Wayne, “Swagga Like Us”
Kanye has a very wack line on this track too, but we’ll save that for October after Wayne’s month of dominance is over.
Someone was confused why every WLotD lately has been one from Lil’ Wayne, so I’ll remind y’all. Thanks to an epic Jeezy vs. Weezy showdown, Wayne’s prize was an entire month of wack lyric posts. Once September is over, we’ll go back to spreading the wackness around. Ice Cube and LL Cool J should be happy they dropped albums this month…
Today’s WLotD isn’t even a lyric. It’s a quote from a XXL interview with Wayne:
“I don’t read a damn thing. That’s why I don’t write music. I’m too cool to be reading and writing…”
–Lil’ Wayne, XXL, October 2008
“I peel off in the Lamborgh-eeen, like a tangerine/
Got the engine straight shaking like a tambourine”
–Lil’ Wayne, “Upgrade U Freestyle”
“Goin’ at their heads like hair in a comb/
Sittin’ by the window, I just stare at the stone/
Know I might get through it, like hair in a comb”
–Lil’ Wayne, “I’m Me”
So nice, he had to say it twice, I suppose.
Been a little busy, so I missed Monday’s WLotD, my apologies. If it makes up for it, I listened to LL’s new album and heard about 22938129382 wack lines. Some of those will come next month, but for now, it’s still all Wayne:
“I go by the name Carter/
I got more plaques than tartar”
–Lil’ Wayne, “Easy“
Wow. Horrifyingly wack.
(…too easy)
Another day, another puzzling, rambling, pathetic verse from Wayne leaks to the net. Take your pick:
“Sittin’ in the Caddy/(W)right like Betty”
“Hip-hop addict, hip-hop at it/Man I swear I’m on top like the attic”
“We stay clean but we get dirty like Harry”
“I am hotter than the sun day after Saturday”
–Lil’ Wayne, “La La (Remix)”
Third grade similes like what. Even Erick Sermon is cringing. Weezy, what did I tell you about celestial references?! Dammit.
