Least Favorite Music Video

Currently my least favorite video is the song "Yahhh". The artist of the song is rapper Soulja Boy Tell'em and the song features rapper Arab. Soulja Boy Tell'em and Arab are friends who have making music together since 2003. In the video "Yahhh", Soulja Boy Tell'em talks about fans and other people who are always in his face when he goes out into public. Soulja Boy Tell'em says that he is always being nagged on and just wants people to leave him alone. When he wants somebody to leave him alone he says to them, "Yahhh Trick, Yahhh" which is supposed to mean go away.
This video is my least favorite video right now because it takes zero talent to make it. The lyrics for one make no sense and Soulja Boy Tell'em just repeats saying "Yahhh Trick, Yahhh" over and over again. After hearing the song one time I was completely annoyed by it and do not want to hear it again. What irritates me is that there are people who think this is a good song but those people obviously have no idea what real music sounds like.
In the video there is also a little toy that is supposed to be a replica of Soulja Boy Tell'em and the toy just sits in Soulja Boy Tell'em's back pocket and yells "get out my face" over and over again. Another reason I do not like this video is because Soulja Boy Tell'em yells at his fans to get away from him. That is not how a music artist should treat their fans at all. If a kid comes up to Soulja Boy Tell'em and wants his autograph, Soulja Boy Tell'em should not tell the kid to scram or get lost. It is disrespectful and if he keeps doing it he will start to lose his fans.

Favorite Video

My Dougie VideoCurrently my favorite music video is by the artist Lil' Wil. Lil' Wil is a rap/hip hop artist from Dallas, Texas. The name of the song is called "My Dougie". It is Lil' Wil's first single on his upcoming debut album. Most of you probably do not know what "My Dougie" means and to be honest I did not know what it meant when I first heard the song either. "My Dougie" is another way of talking about someone's swag or swagger. It can also mean to have cool or hip style.
In the early 1980's an artist by the name of Doug E. Fresh had a dance called the "Doug E. Fresh". In Lil' Wil's music video he combines the "Doug E. Fresh" dance with the Dallas Boogie, a.k.a. the D-Town Boogie. The song features another rapper named Lil' Spain and the song is produced by Big E. In the original remix of the song the rapidly growing popular rap artist Soulja Boy is featured in it.
How you do the "My Dougie" dance is very simple actually. Even if you do not have any dancing abilities at all I guarantee anybody can do the "My Dougie" dance. All you have to do is slide your hands alongside your hand and you alternate back and forth between your right and left hands. While you are doing this you need to have a swagger or cockiness about yourself. In the song there is a part where the lyrics are, "fly then a mu*fucka", and when it says that you are supposed to flap your arms up and down as if you were flying.
I know some of you probably think this is the dumbest video you have ever seen and I can not completely disagree with you. The lyrics are not very good and I still am not sure what is being talked about in the song sometimes but I like it because it has a catchy beat and I think it is funny.

NBA Playoffs

The NBA (National Basketball Association) Playoffs started yesterday, April 29th, 2008. I am the type of fan that does not watch the NBA during the season very often because the games are not nearly as exciting as they are during the playoffs. The games during the regular season are much less interesting and I do not like to watch them as much because I do not think that the players are trying nearly as hard in regular season games. When playoff time comes though I rarely miss a game. I am actually watching the Los Angeles Lakers play against the Denver Nuggetts while I am typing this blog.
One reason that this years NBA playoffs are going to be the best that I have ever seen is because of the pairity in the western conference. The western conference is so close that during the regular season there was nine different teams that were the number one team in the western conference at one point or another during the regular season. Each of the match-ups in the western conference are so evenly match that there is no clear cut team that everyone agrees is going to win. In my personal opinion I think that the Los Angeles Lakers are going to win the western conference because they have the best players in the league in Kobe Bryant and several key role players who all know what they need to do to be successful in the playoffs.
In the eastern conference there are two teams that most everybody thinks is going to win and those two teams are the Boston Celtics and the Detroit Pistons. The Boston Celtics have had the best record in the NBA the entire season and during the last offseason they added Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen which have given them the extra talent to win an NBA championship.
I also enjoy the NBA playoffs because I do a fantasy game during the NBA playoffs. I pick a different player each day during the playoffs that I think is going to have a good game that day. The trick is I can only pick that player once throughout the entire playoffs, so I must choose wisely. Playing a fantasy game is a great way to be more involved in the playoffs and it also makes you that much more interested in all of the games.
