    Hearing these sponsors on rap songs is sickening and really annoying.

    It definitely started out with Run DMC and that song "My Adidas" but you hear that song about Holiday Inn with Chingy called "Holidae Inn", J Cole talks about Bowflex on "Immortal", but Eminem is the worst with mentioning Target, McDonalds, Burger King (multiple times), and worst of all his chorus has "im down your throat like Chloroseptic". Like they can think of many other lyrics that don't have to rhyme with a company but they must pay some mad money just to get these rappers to rap their lyrics so people remember them and have their fans repeat them so you remember their brand and mention it to others.

    Anyone else notice this?

    Probably not but im sure the labels make him mention in their rap. Like...why do they have to be mentioned?? He says, "Makes me want to go to Target just to look at sh*t." in that song. I was like...why Target?

    This is either a GOAT thread or WOAT thread. It all depends on whether the OP is being serious or not. And honestly, I'm not sure I want to know the truth because i laughed so d--- hard reading the OP.

    Such a terrible post but so d--- funny at the same time.

    Do you understand how rhyming, writing lyrics, and wordplay works?
