At the end of each week, #Top40Tweets lists a cross-section of artists on the current pop charts and puts their tweets on display (along with their current chart number) for your enjoyment/scrutiny. This week, we look at 5 artists on the Billboard Music Charts.
#84: Wiz Khalifa – No Sleep
Weed-piphanies, with Wiz Khalifa.
FUN FACT: If you ever doubted that Wiz was serious about marijuana, just know that Wiz Khalifa & Snoop Dogg are set to star together in a movie called High School, which is currently in pre-production. I can’t wait.
#3: Lil Wayne – She Will feat. Drake
Shortly after, Weezy released updated cover art for Tha Carter IV:
FUN FACT: Tha Carter IV leaked a couple of days ago, and the internet is buzzing about a song called “It’s Good” which is being interpreted as a Jay-Z diss track. Check out the lyrics here, but here’s the most notable dig at Jigga: “Two glock 40′s / nigga you got 80 problems.” Damn, that’s cold.
#36: Chris Brown –She Ain’t You
This is definitely the tweet everyone was talking about this week. I wanted to share it with you guys, so I could also post this video of Andy Levy “apologizing” to Breezy:
FUN FACT: Andy Levy is officially THE BEST DUDE.
#2: LMFAO – Party Rock Anthem
The hazards of shuffling, with Stefan Kendall “Redfoo” Gordy.
Also, maybe the last guy I want driving me to the hospital is a guy named “Party Mike.”
FUN FACT: Just released a few days ago, LMFAO have once again teamed up with Lil Jon to bring you a new collaboration. It’s hard to know how they’re going to top the 2009 booze-anthem “Shots,” but let’s see what they came up with:
So it’s the same song, but they just replaced the word “Shots” with “Drink”? Yup.
(Uncharted) Mike Posner –Please Don’t Go
It’s so genius, it’s like selling bottled water. Get well soon, Steve Jobs.
FUN FACT: Mike Posner was recently in the studio writing a song with Rivers Cuomo. If you’re in need of a personal assistant, or a babysitter or something, try giving Rivers a call. It seems like that dude will literally do anything.
And now, a message from Snoop Dogg:
As far as I can tell, this week’s cyber blunt tweet was passed (re-tweeted) 17 thousand times. Nothing unites the proletariat like the world’s biggest virtual doobie.
