    If Kermit the frog were human he'd be Lil Jon. :D

    But on the bright side he gives nerds everywhere the hope that they too can be cool when they grow up and turn into millionaires.

    Guys like him were the reason I was nice to all the nerdy guys in HS. They alway turn out to be the millionaires, or the person you need to hire you later on.

    Looks like Sam Cassell's long lost brother in that HS pic. I can't wait to see what some of these guys look like when they're in their 60's and 70's. :D

    yep that is him its the reason you never see him without sunglasses on lol.

    on a side note he is one of the richest musicians around. he is not on a major all of his music is considered indie through tvt. He gets around $0.70 of every dollar with that company.

    Holy geez. That's a deal. Especially in hip-hop, it's the producers who make the real bank. YEEEAAAAAH!

    When you see him on cribs you can tell he is not really that ghetto. It is such an act. Same with Xzibit, he sounds like he went to a new England boarding school

    YEAAAAAH! Love that dude, his beats are always awesome. Crunk isn't dead because he still produces it. I've never seen him without sunglasses on, now I know why.

    I noticed that too. I thought it was great. Terribly funny how kids think he's so hard when he was really that nerdy kid in the front row you wanted to slap...

    Now the real question is if you are a stable middle-class family and your kid isn't really a ghetto thug but makes everyone think he is and makes millions…do you get upset?
