There comes a time in every rapper’s career where he must ask himself the ever-important question, “Can I really keep living my life making up these meaningless songs about money and hoes?” Most rappers pause for a minute, polish their bling, look at their mansion full of “tip-drills” and “baby mamas” and then answer this question with a resounding, “Yes.”

Apparently, Lil’ Wayne found himself at this familiar crossroad recently, but he decided to stand up and go against the grain, this time writing a song about money and underage jail-bait.

Wayne’s new single,”Prom Queen” is definitely on the experimental side. And by experimental, I mean you might have to experiment with mind-altering drugs before listening to it.

While I can always appreciate when a musician decides to step outside of the what the mainstream radio-listening-audience considers to be normal, I consider this to be nothing more than an attempt to see if people would justify buying a piece of crap as long as it has his name on it….and I like where he’s going with this.

As horrifying as this single is (how else would one describe Wayne’s wailings over a rock-inspired beat and lyrics that include, “I love the fancy underwear, I sit behind her every year”), watch it sell, and catch on big time, proving that most people lose all proper sense of judgement after a hit record. That said, I’d like to take this moment to admit that I did purchase “Tha Carter III,” and think it’s was the best rap album of 2008. Lil’ Wayne, it’s about time you released a bad single. If you haven’t heard it yet, check out one of the first You Tube videos of “Prom Queen.” DISCLAIMER: THE POP FIX is not responsible for any ear, or brain damage one might experience after watching this clip.
