Blog #23: Dear Lil Mama - You're so Deep

I was inspired to write this piece after watching the first episode of Season 5 of ABDC (aka America's Best Dance Crew on MTV).

I've always had something I wanted to say to one of the judges, Lil Mama, since viewing Season 1. So here it goes...

Dear Lil Mama,




The most recognizable song/rap that you have done is Lip Gloss, G-Slide...and maybe Shawty Get Loose.  I thought "Lip Gloss" was cute since  you were still in your early teens at that time, and I really didn't want you to end up like Vanessa Hudgens (naked pictures of yourself), Miley Cyrus (you took Lindsay Lohan off the radar in 2009), or the other Disney folks who turned into...well little hostess' hohos.  And thank goodness you didn't. 


But do tell me something, for someone who has only had 3 songs make it somewhere on the charts (by the way, you never made it to Platinum record), you sure are wise beyond your 20 years of existence.  I know what you're thinking Lil Mama, I know you don't care what I think because in the end, you're the one laughing to the bank, not me. But as wise as you are, why Lil Mama, did you interrupt Jay-Z and Alicia Keys performance - a bit immature.  I know you're from Brooklyn, I saw you cry...but man, you're interupping THE Jay-Z and THE Alicia Keys.


By the way, half the ish you say while you're a judge doesn't make sense to me.  I'm just saying...


Anyway, I just wanted to let you know how I felt - I guess it's better to pretend to know what you're talking about when you obviously don't versus being a hoho.


Thanks.
