ok so B.o.B. has officially changed his name to bobby ray. i’m not a fan of the name change at all, considering the answer he gave us in his interview:
B.o.B. stands for — me just blasting outta barriers, putting brains over bullets and battling our brothers. And in the meanwhile, I’m staying in a bubble of bliss, because you know, there’s a lot of hate out there. This is the year of Barack Obama, and everyone is ecstatic over Barack over Bush, and in the meantime I’m just celebrating by burning on blunts. I actually don’t smoke anymore, but it’s mainly just the celebration factor. B.o.B. is many many different acronyms and they’re always changing. They just come to me as I go through life, cause I catch a new meaning. I just add them up in my mental rolodex of B.o.Bs.
anyway, here’s his newest track. the hook (is it a chorus now?) has a reggae tinge to it. it’s entertaining, but it ain’t “i’ll be in the sky.” we’ll see what comes from this. i hope he’s not totally ditching his previous sound, considering it was eclectic enough.
him and kid cudi have been losing it lately. industry must be a bitch.
