I just feel so blessed at every opportunity to be on that stage with the biggest artist in the world. He really works hard; he's similar to me in that aspect. I've learned a lot from him.

...seconds as The Badunk proceeds to grind the shit out of him. And, by the second verse of “Gansta’s Paradise,” he is just loving the ride. She moves back and forth, up and down, like a lust-charged roller coaster. I’m mesmerized by her ass-shacking fury, but I quickly stop staring as I see that The Badunk is coming for me. She has danced a mere one song with her last badunkee, and may or may not return...
