Petey Pablo = Sensitive Soul

I was listening to my Pitbull Pandora radio station when all of a sudden, "Freak-A-Leak" by Petey Pablo comes on. At first, I said to myself, "how dare they do this to me!" because this song is not bomb.com. Then I noticed Petey Pablo's album was called : Still Writing in my Diary: 2nd Entry. 

 Say what? For reals? That has got to be the most un-thug album name of all time. His street cred needs to be revoked immediately. Twelve year-old girls who read Sweet Valley High keep diaries, not rappers who talk about bitches, hoes, and ca$h. Adults keep journals or logs, Petey, not diaries. Shit, you could have even called it "Captain's Log" a lá Star Trek and it would have been ten times better.

I hope he wrote "Freak-A-Leak "and  "Raise Up" in his Lisa Frank diary. I'm sure he used all the awesome unicorn stickers in those pages.



For his sake, I hope the cover was at least the Lisa Frank's hip-hop bears (featured below). They were so ahead of their time, Kanye even bit their steez! I swear they were used as inspiration for his album cover for Graduation!
