car. My dad was sitting in my Beetle with the convertible top down, in the garage. He had his phone plugged into the radio with a charging cord. While dad is in my car the rest of us where inside, but out of no where we hear "Baby Got Back" by Sir-Mix-A lot booming from the garage.

Bruises hurt. Growing up with the uncomfortable yellow-green of an old battle wound sustained from being an adventurous kid wasn't much of a surprise. The off-shade violet of a deep one, or the angry red of an underdeveloped one, on the other hand, is a more recent discovery.

Colors were first discovered by Sir Isaac Newton, he created a prism that turned sunlight into the colors that we know as “the rainbow.” Newton concluded that “white” contains all of the colors at the same time. Black, therefore, is the absence of color. Whenever Newton tested his prism, he found that red bent far less than violet (red and violet are at the…

Sexual references and lewd lyrics sell more. Records companies support lyrics like this because this generation buys ands likes to listen to songs like this. It says a lot about the artists, especially Lil Wayne’s character because he is making music like this. I was in fifth grade when this song came out, my friends and I would sing this song loudly, without knowing the meaning. It makes me wonder what he thinks about…
