All of my favorite radio stations are playing the same stupid rap music, if you can call it music. Who exactly listens to that junk? “Andele andele mami e.i e.i. Uh-ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! what’s poppin tonight?” I’m sorry, but that’s just plain stupid. ---

That’s Nelly, jackass. And you should see the way the honnies bounce when I drop that shit. Your just afraid of the flava. But when you see two model type chics grinding on each other and then they come up and tell you how dope you are for droppin’ the big beats, well that’s just golden. Guess you’ll never find that out though. Hater. DaLovin’ Dj ---

It’s time to let you in on one of the more unfortunate realities of life. You might want to be sitting down. _The overwhelming majority of the music that gets played on commercial radio is shit._ However, anything that can get a man props from a couple of fine, mutually affectionate ladies is OK in my book. ---

Good god. Actually, if there is one, he isn’t. Anyway, suffice to say I don’t listen to any radio at all. I stay at home and listen to pretentiously-lyricked Canadian bands that nobody in Mississippi has ever heard of, and obscure alt.country artists that can’t be found in stores. I blast the latter (especially Hank Williams III) at top volume to drown out the stereo next door, which is constantly blaring hip-hop. ---
