The Eight Ball [8Ball]

It does’t take much to ‘feature’ in someone elses song these days. Akon is more famous for performing in other peoples music than his own, sometimes just for making wooping sounds and not even words as heard in Gwen Stefani’s “Great Escape”.

Not only does he act like a dick he looks like one too!

These days it’s really bordering on ridiculous what it takes to feature in someone elses track though.  The best and most recent example I’ve found is Kanye West.  Not only is he undoubtedly the most arrogant musician around at the moment, he is so big that he ‘featured’ on Michael Jackons’s Thriller 25 Year anniversary remix track “Billy Jean” with the following ground breaking contributions:

“Yeah, uh, uh huh” before the first verse and ending the song with a breath taking, “”Uh huh, Y-Y-Yeah, Number 1!”

Thanks Kanye, you really rescued this remix from becoming an absolute disaster.  I suppose the next step is nominating yourself for some kind of award for this now?
