I was driving down the road this morning listening to NPR, and an ad came on for an interview with a local Durham rap group. After the plug the DJ played a small snippet of one of the rap groups songs. From what I heard the group sounded politically motivated, enough to warrant a weekend edition spot, and a chat with some old white people. Ok, let me get to the point - when I was listening to the small sample song, I thought of two things immediately. One, the majority of the NPR listeners in North Carolina, are probably white and over the age of 50. Two, all I could picture was old white women dancing to hip-hop. Come kids you know what I am talking about, we have all been a witness to this. Weddings, Christmas parties, whatever, they all dance the same way. Let me explain.
All white women 48+ do the same move, they raise both hands above their head, pucker their lips, and feel the overwhelming need to butt bump in one direction with whoever is next to them at the time. Not to mention the plant one-foot pivot in a jerky circle kind of thing. The whole thing is embarrassing and painful to watch but hey. If gam gam wants to have a few pops and get down with Dr. Dre I am all for it! Fuck, I will even give her a few butt bumps!
So pucker those lips, shake those hips, and do the old white women dancing to hip hop dance!
sorry I do not have any pictures of this phenomenon, but if anyone finds a pic or pics, I will gladly make it an installment on EHS!
All I could find was some young women training for their golden years of but bumping and lip puckerin'.
