~~~ NOTE FROM CHRIS: ~~~
In a recent issue of Blender magazine, rapper Ludacris
said one of his favorite tour bus activities is
playing "hip-hop Scrabble," where only words such
as "bling" and "hizzo" are allowed on the board.
The Top 15 Things Overheard
at a Hip-Hop Scrabble Tournament
- "I'm sorry, that word is spelled correctly -- no points for you."
- "It has to be a regulation Scrabble set, Mr. Dogg. I can't just let you bring in a bag of extra Z's."
- "For the last time, will you *please* stop saying 'Word!' after each turn?"
- "Bitch better have my E."
- "No fair! Snoop's making up words again!"
- "Hey! P. Diddy keeps stealing my tiles and rearranging them for more points."
- "Aw, man... I keep drawing vizzowels!"
- "Well in *Detroit*, the plural of 'ho' is 'hoz,' sucka."
- "How many times do I have to tell you? You can't turn an N sideways and call it a Z."
- "Yoyoyo! 'Yoyoyoyo' ain't a word, yo!"
- "You play on that E I'm scopin' and I may just have to triple-letter-score a cap in yo' ass."
- "Nice rack!"
- "Check this: Vanilla Ice is trying to pass off 'nifty' again."
- "Let's see: 'Shizznizzywizzle' on a triple word score gives you... 87,000 points."
and the Number 1 Thing Overheard at a Hip-Hop Scrabble Tournament...
- "Why, yes, Mr. Cent, that's a word. Of *course* it's a word. I wouldn't dream of challenging it."
