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.
#17 (Myspace Songs): Lady Gaga – Poker Face
I love you, but I’m having you all arrested.
FUN FACT: Lady Gaga is right in the middle of a massive world tour, but she rented a house in Peru and flew her family there so she could spend Thanksgiving with them. It’s way easier to put up with Aunt Jean’s stories and tolerate Uncle Jim’s farting when you’re in South America.
(Uncharted): Lil B – Crime Fetish
Here’s proof that Lil loves all humans, unconditionally.
FUN FACT: Lil B just released a new mixtape called Crime Fetish. Not to be outdone, Lil B’s cat Keke also released its first song this week.
#3: Ke$ha – Die Young
“Best”? You must mean “only.”
FUN FACT: It’s true: Ke$ha just wrote a book. How annoying do you think it is to read? Here’s the first sentence:
“It w@$ thE bE$t Of tImE$, It w@$ thE wOr$t Of tImE$. ❤❤”
#61: Pitbull – Don’t Stop The Party feat. TJR
Since we’re getting hypothetical, if dogs didn’t exist, there’s a chance his rapper name would be Mr. Kitty Cat Man. Actually, I’d like his music a lot more if that were the case.
FUN FACT: Pitbull says that he took his rap moniker based on the fact that pitbulls are “too stupid to lose.” This guy is starting to make a lot of sense to me, all of a sudden.
#30 (R&B/Hip-Hop Songs): Wiz Khalifa – Remember You feat. The Weeknd
Skating, colouring, and the endless pursuit of a retromutagen gun that could turn your mutant rat sensei ninja master back into a human. You think you know, but you have no idea. This is the diary of Wiz Khalifa.
FUN FACT: Wiz Khalifa recently got the full human serviette treatment while on a tour stop in Vancouver. Nardwuar gifts Wiz Khalifa with a Cheech & Chong record, and surprises him with knowledge about the childhood library where Wiz used to look up rap lyrics on the Internet. Watch below:
