RiFF 'RO

TKO Capone been had a fairly accurate facsimile of a Z-Ro song already, so I guess RiFF RAFF felt like he had up the Houston-Rap ante and go get himself a thinly-veiled approximation of a Lil' Flip song Z-Ro appeared on as an apology for the duo's Iced Out My Lighthouse mixtape now being due for release on the same tuesday that Detox and the Nas & Primo album come out :

RiFF RAFF - Lil' Mama I'm Sorry
(From Youtube; 2012)


Other than the glaringly obvious exception of Larry Bird, I only listen to the Rice Emperor when he's paired with black ppl because - DUH! - the rest of his solo material has zero replay value beyond its initial novelty factor and - MEGA DUH! - he tends to reign his excesses in when he's alongside someone from the motherland, but Lil' Mama I'm Sorry is hitting all the right notes for ya boy Richie AKA the Blog Game Gordon Burns/Rap Game Pete Burns this morning. Maybe it's just because I'm in dire need of one good song by a Caucasoid Rapper this year after Yelawolf's new "I'M BACK AFTER MY SHADY RECORDS DEBACLE, GUYS!!!!" mixtape continues his current wretched streak and contains the single worst song of the past 7 months; seriously, can anyone listen to Father's Day without honestly wanting Obama to implement a Eugenics program immediately afterwards?

  2. most of riff raffs stuff is embarrassing, but he does have a few gems. riff raff is best when he sings, thus "time" is my favorite riff raff song. he does such a good fat pat impression on lil mama im sorry, im diggin this song.

  3. ANYONE WHO DENIES THE CHORUS IS JUST HATING FOR THE SAKE OF HATING.

    Bonus points for driving a BMW in the video when the lyrics explicitly state he's balling in a Ferrari.

    Riff Raff is the definition of: *The Rock* IT DOESN'T MATTER *The Rock*

  4. I thought that too. It's all about perception, yo : if you think it's a ferrari then that's what it is.

  5. HOLD UP. DID RIFF RAFF JUST DROP NEXT LEVEL SOME PHILOSOPHY ON US?

    By having a different car in the video to the one in his lyrics, Riff Raff just expressed the post-structuralist idea that language constitutes reality. YO SON RIFF RAFF JUST QUESTIONED THE ROLE OF LANGUAGE IN OUR CONSTRUCTION OF REALITY BY BALLING TOO HARD. See ma? Media degrees are actually useful after all.

    Riff Riff is the truly rap game Michel Foucault.

  6. "Jumpin' out a caravan, eyes like a Chinaman" = rap game Burt Kwouk's character in Last Of The Summer Wine?
