Title: Poker and Hip Hop music. Post by: SimonH on April 02, 2006, 11:02:26 PM Whilst checking out my newly purchased album '20/20' by US rappers 'Dilated Peoples' I heard Phil Ivey's name mentioned in a song. I played the track again, track 8 'Rapid Transit', and discovered the lyrics went as follows :- Packing more bowls than college football But still lively Poker face Playing my cards like Phil Ivey I know Phil listens to Hip Hop in the early stages of big comps, but to get a name drop in a tune must feel incredible. What next? 50 Cent biggin' up Jac Arama, Eminem respecting Joe 'The Elegance' Beevers? Big times for poker. Title: Re: Poker and Hip Hop music.

Earl "the pearl" Strickland has his name featured in not 1 but 4 songs by various artisits.
Surely having a nickname that is easy to rhyme helps........hmmmm the only thing i can come up with for Kendall is f... ... no better not, its a family forum!! ;tk; |
