LWOW ≠ LL Cool J

My good friend KT gave me the nick name "Lwow" to poke fun at my slight obsession with the MTV show “Jersey Shore,” which is similar to one of the characters’ names in the show. This weekend D and I spent the weekend with our friend, who had recently purchased the Wii game called Def Jam RapStar.This game is basically a hip hop karaoke videogame and I was surprised how hooked we got, especially since D tends to shy away from any kind of karaoke situation. He mastered the Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre songs very well, while I was a different story. When it was my turn, everyone encouraged me to do LL Cool J’s “Mama said Knock You Out”. It’s a very angry song and I was getting into the song, swaying in place, waving my arms, and “spittin” the rhymes as best as I could. After the song was done, I triumphantly looked back and D and our friends were rolling on the floor with laughter. Apparently Lwow can’t rap as convincingly as LL Cool J. I think I’ll have to work on my gansta lean before we can try that game again.
