Lil Wayne's "Lollipop" Wins ASCAP Honor

by Jokesta on June 29th, 2009

http://media.defsounds.com/uploads/assets/2195/2249/24452/asset.jpegNew Orleans rapper Lil Wayne has yet another award to add to his already-extensive list of accolades. The "reborn rocker" and writers of his hit single "Lollipop" have won the ASCAP ( American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers) award for Top Rap Song Of 2008.

“Lollipop,” co-written by Darius “Deezle” Harrison and the late Stephen “Static Major” Garrett, was named Top Rap Song, and also claimed an award in the R&B/Hip-Hop category.

The mammoth single, performed by Lil Wayne and featuring “Static Major,” topped both the Top Rap Tracks and R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks charts, and earned “Deezle” and “Static Major” a Grammy Award for Best Rap Song at the 51st Annual Grammy Awards.

Mikkel Eriksen & Tor Hermansen and C. “Tricky” Stewart & The-Dream won the Songwriter Of The Year award for while Alicia Keys took home the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Song award for ” Like You’ll Never See Me Again,” co-written with Kerry “Krucial” Brothers.

@ electrog… Not 100% but I would say 90% of hate is a form of jelousy that probly form beacause someone was better and/or getting more “props”(for lack of a better word) for something then the hater wants. 9% bandwagon and/or just dont know any better; .9% just because they can; .1% (open for debate).

Another disgrace yet again.

Wayne creating his Yung Money label just shows us Hip-Hop’s gonna be in the gutter once again, especially after seeing his wack performance @ the BET awards with that fat, frooty Mcdonalds nigga in yellow hat

…Man if only Underground & Radio could switch places

Good for Wayne. He’s won countless awards over the past couple years, you can’t knock the fact that tons of people like him. Was it the best rap song of 08? No it wasn’t. My problem with this… is the fact that my boy mantis up there says:
“What the fuck is wrong with these people”
Ok I agree with that statement, but he follows it up with:
“Fuck Wayne”
lol it’s not his fault he won.

Congrats on the award I suppose. Do I agree? Absolutely not. Of everything released in 08’ the most overplayed and least artistical seemed to have one IMO.

To be completely honest, I was the opposite. I loved the song when it first came out… I remember thinking “I hope the rest of the Carter 3 is this good”. But then once it hit the radio it got old pretty damn fast. Needless to say I’m glad the rest of the Carter 3 wasn’t like lollipop lol. I guess this is the state of hip hop right now.

If the thought of hoping C3 would be like Lollipop at any point in time crossed your mind, thats a disgrace. I just want to ask, how old are you? how long were you listening to Wayne?

The second I heard that song I pretty much stopped caring about C3 all together. Then he released A Milli and I did stop. At that point I couldn’t have cared less if that album was ever coming out.

People need to realize that just because a “rapper” makes a song, it doesn’t automatically make it a rap song.

I’m 17 and have been listening to Wayne ever since I can remember. And like I said before “Needless to say I’m glad the rest of the Carter 3 wasn’t like lollipop”. I mean come on dude the song was hot when it first came out. And it obviously got a lot of people pumped for c3 considering how much it sold. I’m just saying that I liked it at first. Key words there: At First.

It’s in their DNA they can’t help but to be bitch ass haters, niggas need to evolve. And they always think they know “real Hip Hop”.

it might not have been.. i dont think it was neither .. but they go with numbers… it was the Most played on radio etc.. all commercial n stuff.. so i guess with that approach.. it was the most famous and most played rather than the best..
