Rapper Lil Mama tries to make a comeback with new video, Black Twitter tells her to stop it
Poor Lil Mama.
The rapper just released a brand new video called Sausage (don't judge a song by its title) and, well, Black Twitter is being super mean about it. The song is a bit of a mess direction-wise (it seems to jump between different sounds at the drop of a hat), and the lyrics are a bit weird, but guys, Lil Mama can actually rap.
That's what makes this new video so sad: the artist who had a promising career and seemed like a trailblazer for young female rappers a decade ago is now trying so hard to be like everyone else.
She's Ciara, she's Mary J Blige, she's Nicki Minaj, she's DMX... We can't deal. We were so willing to give the video a chance until it hit the 1:56 mark and suddenly Lil Mama was Mary J Blige - voice, look and all.
It's bloody weird. Then she becomes Gaga, and Rihanna and... ugh.
This is what Black Twitter has had to say:
Went to sleep...woke up...Lil Mama on my TL...what have you guys done? How could you let her back?

Lil Mama, for you consistent releases of mediocre lyrics, you are first on our list for sacrificing.
