The Rich Little Of Hip-Hop

MADtv alum Aries Spears stopped into the Live 105 radio show for a freestyle rap, joined by LL Cool J, Snoop, DMX, and Jay-Z. Honestly only two words needed to kick this off: Fucking amazing.

I heard that live on the radio, thought all of the artists he was impersonating were in the studio for a second. Then I remebered it was a modern rock station.

WOW! I saw a headline for that clip yesterday but I didn't even watch because, well...Aries Spears isn't funny. But that was fucking insane.

I wonder who else he does. You'd think Eminem would be easy.

couldn't listen to it because corporation gots the lockdown on streaming media. big brother and whatnot.

anyway, they should have had ras kass in the studio. he could easily "impersonate" most popular emcees because he's the dude who ghostwrites all their lyrics.

Yes, that was sweet. I just was amused by the nerdy guy in the striped shirt standing behind him that had stripes the exact thickness of the CD cases on the wall. It was like some strange radio studio camoflage.
