American Culture on the Skids
Okay, I might just be getting old, or maybe I am not in touch with today’s urban culture, but there is a song I heard this weekend when hanging around with Bam’s fourteen year old daughter that I thought at first Weird Al Yankovich had stretched his repertoire to include Hip/Hop.
It is called “Do Da Heizman” by a group called The Heizman Boys. Talk about realizing you might be a one hit wonder...if you name your group after the song, you are not anticipating much of a follow up career. Billy “Achy Breaky” Cyrus should have thought of that.
It even comes with a line dance. I appreciate songs that come with instructions on dancing. It takes the guess work out of my time on the dance floor.
I am including two videos. The first is just a static image of what appears to be a Heisman trophy (Finally the heisman gets it’s own dance!) and the words to the song. The words are what makes it so special. I also love the fact that they spelled all the words phonetically using Ebonics. The second is a video of people doing the dance. It was not easy to choose which was best. Youtube was loaded with people submitting them and friends doing the dance.
The large number of videos just served to remind me of how out of touch with current trends I am. If you don’t hear from me for a few days, it is because I am learning the dance so I can impress the ladies.
Except the ladies with the “Stank Breath” I be doing da heizman on does hoes.

My name is Kelsea and I am an associate casting producer for MTV. I am currently working on casting a new docu-series and we’re looking for young adults who have really stepped up to the plate and are helping their mom out who’s going through a hard time, whether it be going back to school, full-time job or even partying too much. We really want to congratulate these teens and document what they’ve been going through on a daily basis, as well as see if we can help in some way.
MTV NETWORK is currently seeking people that…

I wonder if anyone could teach OJ Simpson to “Do Da Heizman” since
he has such a penchant for sports memorabilia?
He’ll need something do fill up his time in jail perhaps.

I hate it when the hos have such stank breaf. it’s probably better to stay away from teenagers altogether so that you don’t get introduced to such things.

Mayren:
I’m sure OJ can do the Heizman, he won one a long time ago, before he got all stabby with the knife and shit.
Churlita:
Teenagers should come with a warning label.

This ain’t nutin’ mo than “talk to the hand” ‘07 style.
AND I LOVE IT!!! I’m very glad video 1 came with words. VERY. I can’t believe that BAM is letting his daughter listen to this! Ha. Funny.

well im glad it came with words ........but i still didnt understand what they were saying. :( if i sing along and say nigga will i be attacked for using the “N” word?
i agree with liz, i cant believe he lets his daughter listen to this, we correct our kids for saying the f word but they can sing it?
one last thought, is the pulling up of the pants part of the dance?
