So Apparently ‘Wale’ Is A Big Deal Now

Not sooo apparent though, at least not to me. *scratches my head* I went to high school with Wale‘ apparently. LOL. Yet, I don’t consider him on my very exclusive, influence-peddling radar. Does that make me a subconscious hater? I don’t think it’s a personal barb against Wale’ -I am just a self-hating DC-ian. The thought of anything good coming out of this area is like some War of the Worlds type shit to me. It’s really weird hearing a rapper throwing out uber localized references and slang, “Joe”, “MoCo”, “DMV” etc. I def- don’t remember the cat though from back in the day, except for the fact that my two best friends from high school do and are friends with him, and bring him up constantly. So anyways, let me get on board, esp. now that he has his own Dreamworks CGI-animated motion picture!

(Joke)

So, now that I am officially on board the Wale tip, I’ve added him on the Space Of My (http://www.myspace.com/wale202) 3020427 profile views…nice. The mother fucker is the FireFox3.0 of the D.C. hiphop game.

AHAHAHAH I just had an epifany. You know how you know cats, and you don’t really recognize ‘em in pictures? Okay, I found a pic of Wale in which I now def recognize him and def knew him. Gimmie a break. B-ball courts and me? It was a wrap, so I am sure we balled before. Here’s the pic where he actually looks like he did in high school:

*SPITTAKE*
Mad at Wale being with mah shortie, Lindsay Lohan:

Damnit… aight he officially pimped.

Go download his free mixtape (cover at top), here.

Here’s his latest music video.

Wale “W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E.” from Elitaste on Vimeo.

Look for Wale on the Rock The Bells 08 Tour this summer. HOLLA!

And to answer your question, yes Wale would recognize me.
