The Jigga-man himself is once again the victim in a dispute with goofy, GOOFY China. Jay-Z's scheduled performance at Shanghai's Honkou Stadium on October 23 has been hella cancelled. However, this time around Jahova wasn't discriminated because he "was black," or because he was "driving 55 in a 54." (You know... that line has always bothered me.) Anyway, China disapproved of Jay-Z's rompish lyrics and declared the rapper too vulgar for the Communist country.
China has been censoring the arts and the media since the senselessly racist Wang Chung had their senselessly racist mega-hit "Everybody Wang Chung Tonight (That's What Every Guy's Name Is In China)." If you recall, the FCC did not go as far as to ban the song in America, but instead made a deal where those bastard racists removed the parenthetical. And in actualness, The Rolling Stones were almost banned earlier this year as well. But they weren't because they agreed not to play their filthy sex anthems, "Honkey Tonk Women" and "Brown Sugar." (And then Cockle wrote an amazing review of it!)
Jay-Z, real name Sean Carter (that's news in itself!), was probably smoking a fatty when he heard this news, and I'm going to go out on a limb and assume he was crushed. Poor man was probably waiting for the Chinese Culture Ministry to josh him big with a clichéd, "I make joke/ I go pee pee in your coke." Funny story, but my Asian friend Paul actually did that to me once.
In due respect to rapper/mogul/retiree/Jayonce/out-of-retirement/we-get-it Jay's current turmoil, I have rewritten the lyrics to the date-rape classic "Big Pimpin" to make it racist of the postmodern sort (ex: haha, world is all good, haha):
"Big Pimpin (Nasty China Version)" feat. emceegreg and Three-six Mafia:
You know I
Thug em
FUCK em
Hug em
Leave em
Cause I don't FUCKIN' need em
Woodchucks chuck wood
But China ain't no good
Yeah, I don't FUCKIN' feed em
They wanna start a fuss I'm breezin'
Talking 'bout
Censorship reasons
I'm a pimp all over the world, BITCH
I don't trust or believe em
In my butt, that's where I keep em
'Til I need to nut
All up in that China gut
Y'all be frontin'
Me give my heart to a Chinaman
Not for nothin'
Never happened
I be forever whackin'
More hardcore than anal assassins
I got no passion
You're just no longer finger lickin?
When I boycott General Tso's chicken
Ho get your ass in
And let's RI-I-I-I-I-IDE
(This is the chorus guys)
We doin' Big pimpin
I don't like the Chinese
Kick em out now
Big pimpin'
Smokin' some trees
We doin' Big pimpin' I think I gots a disease
It's just that Jigga-man
Jackie Chan and maybe Jet Li
Check em out now (Repeat)
