Youtube search for "Lil Wayne"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Artistry Rules For Newcomers:
- If one wishes to enter (entry in all rounds is not compulsory), entry must be written (or selected from back catalog) within two weeks of the posting of the entry thread
- Voting runs during the same two-week period as the next entry thread, so organise your time wisely
- All participants must comment on all entrants and vote by the deadline.  Failure to vote will forfeit all points from that round, but it won't disqualify you from participating in the next round
- Voting will take place by replying to the appropriate voting thread
- If a person withdraws from an Artistry Round prior to the end of a round, all entrants who voted for that person's entry will be permitted to pick one new song to earn a bonus point, all other songs will be realigned accordingly.  There will be no penalty on those who don't change their vote.
- Once a vote is posted, it cannot be changed UNLESS rule 3 applies OR there was a double-vote by accident.
- Late entries will be accepted until the 1st vote has been posted.
- The deadline is a strict deadline, the moment the date has reached the day after the deadline, no votes will count, this is to reduce last minute voting, or sympathy/favoritism towards different entrants.

Don't know much of Lil Wayne's stuff but I looked him up on Youtube and saw the song "God Bless America". I think I'm going to turn that into "God Damn Autocorrect" about failing at texting...

Also "No Worries" I might turn into "No Furries" about that creepy animal dressing up as and sex having lifestyle

Ugh, kinda hoping you won't do that second one, Matty. Not 'cause I hate furries or anything, it'll just set off my "vocal minority" alarm.

Anyway, coming at a time "Glitches Bug Me" about videogame bugs or something.

Question:  is any song that credits "featuring Lil Wayne" eligible?

The general rule of thumb is "equal or greater than 50% vocal contribution*". So unfortunately you're gonna have to stomach Weezy F** Baby for more than 16 bars 8-P

* The Timbland round is gonna be weird...
** The F is for Fishsticks

Would "Let It Rock" count? I've been wanting to parody that song.

Unfortunately, no. I may allow that for the one-hit wonders round, don't think Kevin Rudolph had any other hits.

Basically, featuring spots only count if the main artist is a producer who doesn't do any vocals. So David Guetta's "Turn Me On" will count for the Nicki Minaj round, "Let's Go" by Calvin Harris will work for the Ne-Yo round, etc. Again, Timbaland round's gonna be confusing in this regard. And I shotgun those songs for those respective rounds, BTW.

Sorry, but I could not come up with anything good for this round. Y'all are stuck with an oldie.

I was gonna write a parody of "Lollipop" for this round, but I figured that'd be done a couple of times (I might still write it at some point though). But coming tomorrow, the story of a wild and crazy party...that the host didn't even get to enjoy!
