Why This Song Sucks: The Worst Rap Tracks of 2012


4. LL Cool J, "Ratchet"

---------

Dear LL,

Sincerely,

S

LL? "Ratchet"? I mean, c'mon. Remember "Bad"? Remember "Rock The Bells"? Remember "Big Ole Butt"? Remember "Around The Way Girl"? Remember "Mama Said Knock You Out"? Remember "Hey Lover"?

This has to be that girl from the "I Need Love" video's fault. SMH.

3. Fat Joe, "Instagram That Hoe," featuring Rick Ross, Juicy J

Dear Fat Joe,

Sincerely,

S

Fat Joe and the transitive fallacy:

Given that you enjoy rap music, and given that you enjoy Instagram, you will enjoy rap music about Instagram.

Except you won't. You'll think it's death. You'll think it's like the way it feels to put your tongue on a battery. You'll think it's like Dwight Howard's defense against the pick and roll this season. You'll think it's like the time you ate four Snickers candy bars for dinner.

I almost took you dissing lil b seriously, until i looked at your "the best rap singles of 2012" and saw swimming pools at number one. hahahah I'd rather listen to keke purrrr so hard than listen to that lame ass hook.

Lil b is making history, and i don't think you are ready for it.

Shouldn't it be "these songs" not "this songs"? Am I missing some kind of irony or is the editing at LA Weekly that pathetic?

@SheaSerrano @LAWeeklyMusic Life is too short and joyless to hate on "Cashin' Out."

@AUgetoffmygold @SheaSerrano But this kind of hating is full of joy and actually extends life and helps one afford condos-on-wrists

@LAWeeklyMusic @SheaSerrano I will need to see proper documentation of this before I accept this explanation.
