Lil Jon

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH-UUUUUUUHHHHH - Lil Jon, regarding everything |
 |
The originator of "Crunk" Hip-Hop, Lil Jon is the resident Large Ham of the hip-hop world. He has had several hits, most notably "Get Low" and the Usher-fronted "Yeah!".
Lil Jon provides examples of the following tropes:
- WHAT?!!!!!
- YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH-UUUUUUUHHHHH!!!!!
- OOOOHHHHHHH-KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!
- Catch Phrase - YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH-UUUUUUUHHHHHHHH on every song he's ever been on, ever.
- Not quite true. One of his earlier songs isn't much like what people expect from him today. I miss that Lil Jon, quite frankly.
- Todd in the Shadows even speculated on a Lil Jon appearance in a ballet ("YEAH Swan Lake!").
- Bowdlerisation - Used frequently, though the clean versions of the songs often make more sense than the explicit versions.
- Cluster F-Bomb - No fucking kidding. His song "Real Nigga Roll Call" is said to contain more swear words than any other single ever released, and its chorus contains more words that had to be removed in the clean version than words that were allowed to stay.
- Crunk Rock - Not only does Lil Jon describe "Crunk" as an extension of Punk Rock attitude, he also released an album called Crunk Rock, which highlights the Rap Rock aspect of his music.
- Large Ham - and how
- One of Us - Apparently, he is a fan of Dragon Quest.
- Rap Metal - "Stop Fuckin' Wit Me"
- Sampling - "Stop Fuckin' Wit Me" was put together by Rick Rubin entirely with guitar riffs from Slayer recordings that Rubin produced.
