The Rap formula

I'm a fan of anything with a good bass line and people talking over it... as my friends describe some of the music I listen to.

Anyways I was writing the last post and listening to one of my playlists on iTunes when The Game came on. Talk about using a formula: dragged yourself away from the gangs, got shot, it changed your life and here you are enlightening the rest of us, shagged someone before you left the house, doggy style of course, drop a few names and Bob's your uncle. Surprisingly there was no mention of reminiscing...

So I counted, and not including people he mentioned twice, he's dropped 20 names on us in one song alone, The Documentary! Sweet jebus! Does this guy feel so little about himself that he has to use all these other people in his ryhmes to generate a little heat. Oh and he doesn't take pop shots at legends... not half.

If you want a bit of name-dropping, listen to Christy Moore doing Lisdoonvarna!
Anyone for the last few choc ices? Wawawa!
