SWAGGA JACKIN' THA STANKY LEG

By Mike Boyd JR

It saddens my heart to hear people revolt against the word swag.



I love having Gucci Mane La Flare, Shawty Lo, Soulja Boy, OJ DA JUICE MAN, Yung Joc, and Young Dro spit various usages of the word swag into my ear. By various usages of the word swag I mean "Stupid Swag" "Fruity Swag" "Gucci Swag" etc.


The people who are revolting against the usage of the word swag are saying that it has been overused. That it has become an extremely mainstream word that no longer is fun/cool to say. They are claiming that not only is it being overused by southern rap artists, but that it is being used quite frequently in the media. (sports tv & radio, the local news, etc)


I heard Kurt Warner use the word swag in an interview after his Arizona Cardinals won their first NFL playoff game a few days ago. He was using the word to describe his team and how they came together during the game and "got their swag back."


In other news,


Doin Tha Stanky Leg could quite possibly be the most popular dance move since cranking dat Soulja Boy!


I have heard people talking about this dance in Boston, and Saint Louis radio stations are practically playing the song on repeat:
