The recording artist Eminem (real name Slim Shady) just released Shady XV, a two-disc compilation. One CD features a collection of Shady Record’s greatest hits, while the other offers new material from Eminem, Slaughterhouse, Bad Meets Evil, D12, and Yelawolf.
The release’s title track contains a reference to UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey:
I got a Magic Johnson
It’s like a Magic Wand allows me to not let a blonde arouse me
If Ronda Rousey was on the couch with the condoms out
Holding a thousand Magnums at once to pounce me
I’ll laugh in response to how she dances and flaunts it around me
Her flat little badonkadonk is bouncing around
And all I see is Paulie Malignaggi, she’s slaughterhouse in a blouse
(2:34 mark)
Eminem is not alone in using mixed martial arts and associated arts in lyrics. Master rap lyricist and producer Ralek Gracie’s G-In-a-Gi also boasts some potent rhymes:
A G in a gi might start the party
But you don’t need a gi, all you need is Bacardi
Bring a CD and some Bob Marley
This s— could get heavy like tons of broccoli!
And Jersey Shore’s Vinny G(uadagnino)’s Hit A Milli is said here to be referencing fellow Long Islander former UFC lightweight champion Frankie “The Answer” Edgar.
V is for victory
I is for I’m innocent
double N, baby, because I am never negligent
the Y is for young
and G is for greatness
U is for my ultimate, ultimate statements
A for the ass I get
D for my douchebags
A I’m The Answer and
G I got you guys
etc
If you know any other great rap lyrics that refer to mixed martial arts, please post below!
