2011 Year in Rap: Example

‘Bout got into fist-a-cuffs with a trust-a-far-ian¹

Over the Ninety-nine Percent

And I’m a liber-tar-ian

It’s easy to dismiss the Movement² when you’re all grown

your ‘rents still payin’ your rent

And you livin’ on your own

Get off my back MISSION ACCOMPLISHED Obama ends War in Iraq

Eyes on the prize, no made up WMD’s

SEAL Team Six ran the QB-sneak like a ring wearin’ Drew Brees

Were it not for that burned out hull of a Sikorsky ³

Our man in Pakistan wouldn’t’ve known ‘bout our attack

Osama Bin Laden buried at sea

And now twenty-eleven comes to end

‘Nother byte outta the Apple, the Woz⁴ lost his best friend
