FRIDAY YOUTUBE: WEST F'N VIRGINIA.

That.was.awful.

Crystal meth is a helluva drug.

Profit Money….

“Gold Jerry! Gold!”

“The W”? Is that anything like “the O.B.”? Now, I know (because Lamar Thomas told me) that I cannot go into The O.B. playing that stuff, but what about The W? Am I allowed to play that stuff there?

Won’t be able to listen for a while. I am guessing the lead rapper sounds like Randy Moss, circa ’97?

Just another example of how right Time was in naming YouTube “Invention of the Year” for ‘06. It’s also a good real-life illustration of how deadly White, Slaton and Co. can be to their video game counterparts on NCAA ’07.

It almost makes me wish for a Florida one set to Neil Diamond’s “Forever In Blue Jeans[shorts]”. Almost.

Man, I can’t even imagine how bad this is. I don’t know whether to be happy or sad that I can’t watch Youtube at work. Probably the former.

Wu Tang will not be pleased at their referencing the W

you stay classy, west virginia!

“Mr. D-Why/Profit Money, what you’ve just sung is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent rap song were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul”

“home of the retards and trailer park hustlers”?

 Pitt Panther boards must be forwarding this link as fast as their little paws allow them to type.

I’m shortlisting Profit Money and D-Why for the Nobel Prize in reprazizzenting. Around the 4 min mark, they clinch it by dropping a rhododendron reference.

Here are some thoughts:

“The Gold and the Blue” is a better rap song.
WV has trailer park hustlers?
I thought “the W” was a hotel chain.
The second verse is a solid (and accurate) WV History lesson.
It’s Mason Dixon Line, not “Mason-Dixie” line.
“Golden cap on the dome of the cap…” makes me laugh.
It’s not often that you hear a Chuck Yeager shout-out.

How does one take pride, or attempt to glorify, West Virginia?

How is that possible?

Was the rhododendron reference a Rhododendron Hell reference? Although, unlike a Rhododendron Hell, WVU’s defense is not remotely impassable.

Well, it was mercifully free of 1st quarter Sugar Bowl highlights. There. I said something nice.

I be up in ur internetz sukking at the rapz & pwn’n ur hai skool teems deefense, k thnx bai

He was just saying they have some rhododendrons in West Virginia. And he is proud of this.

Entertaining and informative. West Virginia is the 35th state and has 55 counties.

Now that West Virgina is on the map, how will Wyoming respond?

“we deserve more respect, people think we just hillbillies and rednecks”

I’ve been to West Virginia, and you are a bunch of hillbillies and rednecks. Its like me being mad cuz people think I can’t tan cuz I have red hair. Facts are facts.

#18…Because you have red hair you probably consider yourself Irish as well when, really, you’re just a mutt like 92% of the rest of this country. Get over yourself.

OT, the Ol’ Ball Coach is whipping it out over on Deadspin.

Holy crap, West Virginia is going to assrape my MSU Bulldogs this fall.

(Yes, I said “West Virginia” and “assrape” in the same sentence.)

To add with what Phil is saying…

Check the lead story for us—it’s up.

Clickclack. Golf sucks.

Any highlight of Pat White should only be accompanied by the music of Mos Def, since Pat White in his footbaw helmet is a dead ringer for Mos.

“Blowin’ up like Nitro”

Sorry, I think this is genius.

If that’ not the focal point of West Virginia’s Official Office of Tourism Office (I’m just taking a stab @ the name) it TOTALLY needs to be. Is it wrong that I just burned my couch cuz I wanna b lyke da W?

Where are Al and Jesse when you really need them?

55 counties ? Is that alot ?

unlike sunshine on my shoulder, this did not make me happy.

Funny, but not nearly as bad as the aggie raise up bcs video.

It’s been three years and I still get a chuckle out of that.

re: #28. I’m from Connecticut, we onyl have 8 counties. they also disbanded the sheriff’s offices because they didn’t really need them. Think about that. No county cops.

Now you know why everyone wants to live in CT as opposed to Dirty Jerz.

Iowa has 99 counties. Why?—who knows…

I(owa) got 99 counties but a bitch ain’t one.

after this, sufjan stevens won’t have to work on his WV opus: “Smell the Couches Burnin’”

First, I give WVU and Rich Rodriguez all the credit in the world for creating a first-class football program. However, the same cannot be said for the inhabitants of the ‘Wild and Wonderful.’ Living in Maryland, we’ve always looked at West Virginia as our drunken uncle, the black sheep of the family that you will be forever associated with. This song only solidifies their second class status.

What’s next? Maybe Marshall could do Leaving on an Experimental Jet plane.

Anyone from Pitt who has seen this video hasn’t passed it around. They’ve been having nightmares about the last 2 years and they are probably still trying to figure out how the heck they are going to stop Pat White, Steve Slaton, Owen Schmit and Darious Reynaud this season.

I desperately need to see fat, rythmless, middle-aged white people awkwardly gyrating in a hideous simulacrum of dancing to this song. It would be even better if the governor was involved.

I’m not sure what the education is like up in WV but someone should probably point those guys to this…..

It’ll be like Christmas in May for them.

#22, MSU has responded:

that was awesome!! hey don’t diss the rhododendron biatch…I’m also putting in some echinacea amongst other flowering perenials this year…but I’m zone 6a…what zone is west virginia aargh I’ll have to listen to that song again.

btw this was way way superior to the aggies song ..that really did suck.

Go mountaineers..we may be a bunch of rednecks but our football team wil kick any of yall’s butt

i beleive they are talking about rhododendrans because it is the state flower

You people may not have liked the song, but then you go on a rant about nonsense as if the places that you live are the most immaculate locations in the USA. Get real, a lot of you people probably thought that West Virginia was the western part of Virginia until you watched ESPN and saw some highlights. I’m not saying West Virginia is the pillar of culture existence, but that hasn’t stopped out of state business ventures from coming in and buying up land, and let’s not forget the massive tourism that comes through the state every year. Oh, West Virginia University has a high out of state enrollment because schools in other states charge way too much for the same (or lesser) amount of education.

he says reconz and trailer park hustlers, in reference to local legends 304 reconz and 6’6 240…haters can eat a dick…nice video montage of the soon to be 2008 national champions as well

the comments of each of you putting down and discrediting this song are not only ignorant but lacking in rationality. ive heard just a few reasonings behind the negativity being displayed by you naysayers. First and foremost you bash the song because of the fact that you hold stereotypical views of West Virginia as a state. Secondly, you are dragging the song through the mud because you either dont care for hiphop as a form of music or are just not intelligent enough or hold enough knowledge of the state of West Virginia to accurately know what the meanings are in the verses.

In the first verse there are many plays on names of WV towns such as Nitro, War, and others. Those of you lacking the knowledge of WV geography fail to see the clever use of those names in crafting a solid verse. The second verse was a WV history lesson of sorts, citing such things as Chuck Yeager, the state capitols gold dome in Charleston, the amount of counties we have, etc, etc, etc.

I dare one person with negative comments about this song to come with a sound and reasonable argument as to your dislike of it. This argument should include not only reasoning but a knowledge of things West Virginia over a 2nd grade level. It would be appreciated. Oh and before the detractors decide that Im commenting based on the fact that im associated with hiphop, these artists possibly, or any other reaason, just know that this song isnt one of my favorites but I respect it. Hell I dont even care for one of the artists personally as in I actually know him. However I will not sit by and let a bunch of ignorant, close-minded, or unknowledgeable idiots drag a significant peice of WV artistry through the mud. Thanks for the time mindless flock

WEST VIRGINIA I LOVE THESE MOUNTAINSSS

SO WHAT……I DRINK DA BEAST AND FUCK FAT BITCHES IN HAY STACKS. WV IS THE SHITTTTT

“It’s Mason Dixon Line, not "Mason-Dixie" line.
"Golden cap on the dome of the cap…" makes me laugh.”- Said by post #12

Wow Couchburnin’girl you are a certified idiot. First of all, Mason-dixon is the correct spelling indeed but i have heard many many people call it the Mason-Dixie. Now here comes the part where you feel dumb for living. If you had ears that worked you could easily hear that D-Why says “Got gold at the top of the dome of the cap, cause i’m from charleytown.” So let’s put it this way….I think before you criticize music, or rather listen to music at all, you should go see an Otologist. Don’t try to make funny remarks about a song when you don’t even know the words to it.

And if you all don’t like this song that’s fine, just don’t criticize it when you don’t know what you’re talking about. How about you all check out their other music and see if you feel the same about it as you do about this? I bet you won’t…

yo, the sound is mad corny because:
-the second MC sounds like he just picked up a mic for the first time
-The first MC can barely finish a bar without chopping up his cadence
-John Denver? Come on. The royalties on this would be thru the roof. I could see maybe a small snippet, but the whole thing?
-The first MC challenging everyone to get their ass whooped. How original.

Can’t believe John Denver is still making music. I’ll have to try to catch him the next time he plays in Monterey.

We here in the ATL laugh at your feeble attempts to make a regionalized rap song. However, we do not laugh at your QB’s ability to warp space and time with his feet.
