RIP Ron Artest's Death Wish

Posted by on Wed, Jul 8, 2009 at 2:02 PM

NBA player Ron Artest announced this week that for his new team, the LA Lakers, he'll sport the number 37 on his jersey to commemorate Michael Jackson—Thriller was #1 on the charts for 37 weeks, DOY.

But he ain't done commemoratin', naw. Take this golden track, "Michael Michael":


(Google searches for "Ron Artest Michael Jackson" should work if this video is taken down soon)

When you can't even keep up with your fellow rapping Lakers, man, you got problems. And thanks to the apology posted at RonArtest.com, there's no doubt that the following awful rhymes and WTF lines are Ron's own:

red jacket, pimp leather glove / you used to show me love / I know you didn't know me, but you showed me love

MJ, MJ, you in my prayers / I know you in heaven, I hope to see you next year

...you should hip your new bosses in LA to the latter point, Ron. Might be a breach of contract.

Wow. This song has the highest n-word to non n-word ratio for a tribute. The line "see you next year" is hysterical...
