No this is not a post about R. Kelly, but if you happened to have wasted 3 hours of your life watching the BET awards this past Sunday, you probably caught the Young Money performance.If you saw the performance and didn't find it offensive and repulsive, please leave this site immediately. If you didn't see it consider yourself lucky. Why? Well here's what happened...
The performance starts with Drake sittin'
Well during their performance a group of girls come out on stage, surround the rappers and began to dance. Sounds like an ordinary rap performance right? Well when I said "girls" I meant that shit literally. These weren't scantily clad grown ass video vixens...these were like 10 yr old little girls with Hello Kitty t-shirts on.
Now you're probably familiar with both of the previously mentioned songs, but just so you can understand why this wasn't a good thing, I thought I'd point out a few lyrics from each one...
Drake - "Best I Ever Had"
"I be hittin' all the spots you even know was there..."
"My shirt ain't got no stripes but I can make that pussy whiiiiiistle..."
Lil' Wayne - "Every Girl"
"I like a long haired thick redbone, open up her legs to filet mignon that pussy / I'm a get in and own that pussy / if she let me in, I'm a own that pussy / gone throw it back, bust it open like you pose to / girl I got that dope dick, now come here let me dope you..."
"But you can't call me choosy / I'll fuck the whole group, baby I'm a groupie..."
Oh, btw Drake was the only one who rapped the clean version.
Now at first I thought these were just random ass pre-teens that ran on stage and I was truly disgusted with the whole thing. But I made an assumption and I was dead wrong. I feel bad because I was really about to go in on Lil' Wayne and his crew for subjecting random little girls to that type of music.
Well, it turns out that the girls weren't random at all!!! One was Lil' Wayne's daughter Reginae (9), another was Tiny's daughter Zonnique (12) and the others were their friends. Apparently, Wayne's daughter was upset because she didn't have the opportunity to come on stage with him when he accepted his award earlier. Wayne being the great father that he is, decided to make up for it by letting her join him on stage as him and his crew performed the uncensored version of their ode to women across the world..."I wish I could fuck every girl in the world". Wayne only told his daughter that she could come on stage, but I think she took the whole "every girl" concept and ran with it, inviting the rest of the girls to join her.
So there you have it...it was all a big misunderstanding and Lil' Wayne wins "Father of The Year".
In all fairness, word is that Wayne is actually a good father and he's very involved in Reginae's life, which is somethin' that can't be said for a lot of fathers, whether they're rappers or everyday Joe Smoes. But damn, talk about bad parenting skills....that was an extremely bad call on his part.
In other news, Drake signed with Young Money/Universal. If you care to read about it go here. No surprises there, but I gotta say I'm little disappointed. I was a fan of Drake's music prior to his whole Lil' Wayne/Young Money affiliation and I feel like he's talented enough to the point where he can make his own lane...not ride in Wayne's.

I feel you on the whole thing about Drake signing to Young Money. I was a little disappointed too. I looked at it as a Beacon of hope for the indie artist. I thought he'd go indie for the first album (Online distribution along with Best Buy, Wal-mart, Target, Circuit City) and then sign a deal after that. But in reality, he isn't as well off as people think and no doubt tearing that ACL, will hinder his show schedule, and slow up some of his cash flow.
So he signed with the home team for a reported 4 album deal witha contract full of guarantee's. Not a bad move, but not the best one either.
As far as the little girls onstage, I am not a fan of it either. I don't believe in censorship of my future children but I don't believe in "setting them out" either. I admit that was a weird sight to see.
