World of Weird Al Yankovic

I have the edited version on "Now! Vol 18." It just blanks out the words 'nigga' and 'weed'.

So there'll probably be a sound effect. Do you think Al would say "weed" in a song? I think it'd be pretty lame if he didn't, yet I can't see it happening.

The funny thing about that is, over the summer, at Lollapalooza, Kanye let everyone know that it was OK for all the white people to say nigga during his song - I guess he'd rather have everyone sing along, rather than feel racially awkward - he knew that we didn't mean anything bad .

Not that that has any bearing whatsoever on the content of the song, but just a fun thing that happened.

That'd be strange because really, it's no different than "crack" (Well....it's different...but that's another story )

Yeah, this goes on my list of things I feel I shouldn't have laughed at, but did...

About the "weed" thing-- I honestly don't know. I mean, he's said crack before, so it wouldn't be terribly out of the question, but, I dunno. I just get the feeling he censored it.

He'll probably say "weed". He's already used the word "ganja" before as well, and it's the same thing.

Really?

What song?

That would be "Buy Me A Condo" from 'In 3D'.

Yup, that's the one. He says:

Wo, gonna cut off me dreadlocks,
T'row away all me ganja.
I'll have a Tupperware party,
Maybe join me a health spa. . .

So, it wouldn't surprise me if he used "weed".

*I just got an image of Al with dreadlocks. That would be kinda cool, actually*

Oh, yeah!

I just listened to that today...
