Will Ferrell the world-renowned funnyman breaks down his two cameos on Jay-Z and Kanye West’s chart topping Watch The Throne single, “N***** In Paris.” The Hit-Boy-produced anthem not only comes correct with a nearly untouchable verse from Hov, the year’s most ingenious double entendre (“That shit Kray”), and a beat so infectious just hearing it incites riots but subtly, at song’s beginning and again in the middle, there are two snippets from the former SNL star’s comical film, Blades Of Glory. The first is of Ferrell’s “Chaz Michael Michaels” character commanding “We’re going to skate to one song and one song only,” and in the second, most recognizable snippet he states, “No one knows what it means, but it’s provocative…it gets the people going!”
Will Ferrell adds : “Kanye reached out to me and I said, Of course” says Ferrell via email to MTV detailing how the collaboration originated. “I was completely flattered when they asked if they could sample me into the song and when I heard it for the first time, I just started to laugh because it felt so surreal. But I really did like the song.” The actor also explains that there were plans to create a film piece to be used on the video boards when Jay and Ye’ perform “N***** In Paris” during their sold out Watch The Throne tour, but unfortunately the three “haven’t gotten it together.”
Well Can’t wait to see that Happen Meanwhile we are waiting for the video to Drop Anytime soon, Time to go Paris Trick…
Old School Cat and Hip-Hop pioneer Heavy D passed away at age 44, Born Dwight Arrington Myers, Heavy was the first act signed to acclaimed record label, Uptown Records. He is best known for the commercially successful albums such as Livin Large, Big Tyme and Nuttin’ But Love among others. He also appeared in movies like Life, and Big Trouble, as well as television series, “Livin’ Single,” and “A Different World.”
While popular singles “Girls, They Love Me,” “Now That We Found Love,” “Nuttin’ But Love,” and “Is It Good To You” are forever embedded in rap history, “The Overweight Lover” is perhaps best remembered for becoming hip-hop’s first Big sex symbol paving the way for The Notorious B.I.G and Big Pun. He embraced his weight and mentioned it often in his rhymes, removing the stigma that being slim was required to be attractive.
Rest in peace, Heavy D. You will be missed.
