…& then you blow the joint – Pain In Da Ass…or Henry Hill

This past Monday, I had the fortunate/unfortunate opportunity to catch Shawty Lo on Rap City. Now I’m not one to hate on the next man’s ability to get in the rap game & have some sort of career, but they had the audacity to put this fool in the booth. Yes the BOOTH! I know Rap City has fallen off hard, but since when is Shawty Lo deemed an acceptable booth participant?

I will give him credit for actually trying to freestyle, but when your written rhymes are as weak as his, that’s not gonna get you over. The look of accomplishment on his face when he was done had me & my people busting out laughing well beyond the ensuing commercial break. My friend’s brother summed it up perfectly when he said: “Why would anyone buy his album after seeing that?” To see Q-45′s sorry ass vouch for that pathetic display almost guarantees him a spot whenever Nas decides to do a “These Are Our Heros Pt. 2.”

Please bow your heads & give a moment of silence to the booth. While not dead in real life, it’s been put in hospice to carry out it’s last days; a shell of it’s former self.
