More Things I Learned From Watching Rap Videos
-There is a specific age somewhere between 35 and 50 when African-American women go from being skinny with huge breasts and huge asses to being overweight and wearing goofy hats. This change happens apprently overnight, as there are no examples of any in between stage. As the creationists would say, there's no missing link.
-Rap video fans buy one of a certain group of products. These products are: overpriced sneakers, soda, and rap CDs. Although judging by the videos, they also purchase NFL jerseys.
-No single rap artist could possibly get through a song on his own. Music has more credibility, or "cred", if it involves, or "features", as many random rappers as possible, even if these rappers have no name recognition. By this logic, I should have released my EP as "Chris Hill featuring Michael Dixon". I wonder if I could just record Michael's voice as he sings along to one of his CDs in his bedroom and sample it without him being wise to it? Would I still have to pay him royalties? Kind of like Bowfinger with music instead of movies.
Ah, the things I learn while running on a treadmill at the gym...
