I generally have tolerance for other people's musical interests, even if they don't match my own. I can usually at least see the talent and the appeal to some forms of music I dislike. But that 'song' is seriously the worst piece of crap my ears have ever been subjected to.

Ya the song is a tad annoying, I'm not going to lie.

Again, I just can't see the word Iginla being split into 3 syllabols and sounding even remotely okay.
Ig-in-la just sounds so odd to me.

Oh my freakin' ears!

Did he call himself a venereal disease in that video? I swear he did. And you think if he was a milli he could at least afford a shirt or pants that fit.

If you ever get bored one day (or need an excuse to put off studying for finals like I was) you should google Lil' Wayne's lyrics.. some mindboggling one liners there.

I also learned that he's won a grammy for A Milli. Chew on that for awhile..

Yeah. I googled the lyrics for A Milli specifically to see how he referenced a venereal disease to a bleed

It's completely nonsensical. How does he remember all the jibberish when he does live shows?

lol.. i dunno it sounds right in my head.

I actually don't mind the beat in that song... can't stand his voice on that track. Add fact that I was in New York City this past summer and couldn't go more than 30 seconds without hearing that track.. and yeah annoying.

No kidding. I remember when I first heard that track, I definitley had to do a doubletake to make sure that's what i heard... just flat out weird.

I actually listen to a bunch of hip-hop (grew up in the States so you get used to it a lot more than up in Canada i find)... but Lil Wayne's brutal.

I fully support this endeavor, if only for the comedic value the OP has and will provide us during his "creation" process. Word.

I honestly have lost respect for anyone I know that thinks that is music, let alone good music.

I think my IQ dropped 50 points after reading some of those lyrics.

The idea would work. I can easily hear A Milli replaced by Iginla droning in the background.

It doesn't make the "song" any less absolute and total crap by any means. The video is giving me brain damage and wishing violence upon all that participated in it...and all the people who like this terrible "music".

And I listen to Tupac.

I thought some of his earlier work with the Hot Boys and the earlier albums was actually pretty decent. You wouldn't be able to tell based on the quality of his work now, but the guy used to be pretty creative when it came to penning lyrics. Then he decided he wanted to break it out in the mainstream and the Carter's II and III occurred... and well you know the rest.

It's too bad this is the stuff that you find in the mainstream representing hip-hop... because there's stuff out there that's a million times better than this.

As a pretty big fan of lil wayne (own all his records dating back to da drought and da block is hot) Tha Carter III is a pretty good album.. you gotta listen to the lyrics and just laugh thats why hes the best rapper alive haha. you wanna hear a crazy song? I feel like dying is so messed up you will have to listen at least twice to realize you werent dreaming.

IMO lil wayne has a pretty awesome voice but his older and underground stuff is way better than the mainstream

heres I feel like dying by the way haha enjoy!
