07.31.07 NBA RAP ALBUMS ARE AWESOME
Joining the storied ranks of Shaquille O'Neal, Allen Iverson, Ron Artest, and probably some other people, Minnesota Timberwolf Troy Hudson became the latest NBA player to release a rap CD. And as you can probably guess, it's a huge hit.
Timberwolves guard Troy Hudson's first rap album, "Undrafted," sold 78 copies in the first week after it was released on July 17.
Seventy-eight thousand? Hundred? Is that number supposed to be in dozens? Because I could write a book and get at least 80 people to buy it in the first week. And people fucking hate books. But I could do it. My mom and dad would buy two apiece, then from there it's just calling in favors and threatening to stab bookstore customers. Piece of cake.
Expect Hudson's follow-up album "Unpurchased" to be released never.

I'm actually surprised his album is moving that well. If I buy one, will he cut his ride-me-I'm-a-pony tails?
I traded my copy for a 3rd Bass CD and a cassette to be named later.
Troy obviously didn't get the memo. You gotta ask for time off to promote the CD, and when the request is denied, get your ass suspended for the year so you can promote the CD on Good Morning America. Duh.
I didn't have enough money under my shitty album salary cap.
Shaq Diesel is one of the finest albums ever recorded.
Do you want me to shoot it? Do you want me to pass it? Do you want me to SLAM?
By the way, who in the name of Rob Van Winkle's taint is RJ Helton?
I'm thinking of names for the followup album (or EP):
Foul Trouble
Three Game Suspension
Back Court Violation
Does it come with the bonus LP “Unlistenable?”
Who the fuck is RJ Helton?
Oops, Burnsy.
I looked for his album online. I couldn't find it. It could be a rare collector's item in a few years. Is it being released on vinyl?
Enrico: No, no, yes. I'll getouttheway getouttheway getouttheway.
This epic performance is available on Amazon. According to Amazon statistics, the album is currently #75,643 in sales amongst "Music." However, much to Hudson's delight, it comes in at a cool #8 in sales amongst "Comedy."
It should be noted here that Hudson's rap alias is "T-Hud." That's right, this album is literally arriving with a thud.

I'm assuming you clowns have heard of Google. Look up RJ yourselves.
That's "Rim Job" Helton to you.
I actually bought this album. I tried to leak it onto the internet, but Firefox gave me this error message:
that the music you purchase isn't so fucking awful.
The best song is " Shootin up 28% of fools from the floor". Its an instant classic!
Google? We're not all tech geeks, buddy. What the fuck is a google?
"Because I could write a book and get at least 80 people to buy it in the first week." That's what you think.
Here you go:

Anyone remember the classic piece of wax that is K.O.B.E.?
Hey I have the Best Of Big Daddy Drew. I painfully copied it off KSK and put it all in a PDF format.
Drew, if you knew the title of Matt's book, it may change your mind: Whiskey-A-No-No: How I Slept My Way to the Top of Fat Penguin Media.
And is "google" where I check my e-mails?
Thanks to Google i am now enlightened as to who the fuck Rim Job (© Pauly) is. Shakes fist Damn you Google! Damn you all to hell!
