Washington D.C. Represent, Yo!

Another MTV U video I saw while working out. A very unimpressive song but it had one of the best lines I had ever heard: "I Remain A Giant And You Jeremy Shockey". There's also some other sports references like him getting "A-Rod Money" but I just loved that Shockey line. You can watch the video here

Another thing, the dudes from D.C., why's he wearing a SF Giants hat? I realize the Nationals are bad and it would be embarrassing to rock a Nats hat, but to go with the Giants, really? I mean he's not Asian so he's of course not wearing a Red Sox hat and I'm glad he's not a dumbass fair whether fan so, gladly, he's not wearing a Yankees hat, but Giants? What's up with that dude!?

Speaking of black guys wearing hats, one funny anecdote. I was in a speech class with an Illini receiver and he always wore a baseball hat, mainly a Tampa Bay Rays hat. One day, like half way through the semester we asked him (BTW the baseball season was underway) to name five Rays players. He named Ryan Howard.

  1. My name Wale and I'm here to git it!

    I love Wale. His wordplay is so clever. He has one song where he rhymes water with water six times in a row. He also has another song where he drops the n-bomb about 15 times in a 30-second span.

    The Giants hat is a classic look, except I hate it now because I associate with this idiot hipster kid at school. I like the Nats hat with DC on it. I once got into a conversation with a guy rocking a Nats hat about the merits of Adam Dunn. It was also at a Harvard party.
