Default Re: Has Bling taken over the world?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bling

Quote:
The word "bling" was first used on record in 1998 by fellow Cash Money Records artist Lil Wayne on the track "Millionaire Dream" ("I got ten around my neck, and baguettes on my wrist, Bling!") from the Big Tymers album How Ya Luv That. The word was coined by Lil Wayne who often used onomatopoeia, he later extended its use to "bling bling" for the hook he wrote and performed on the B.G. track of the same name. "Bling Bling," released in 1999 on B.G.'s album Chopper City in the Ghetto led later in the 2000's to the term proliferating through mainstream hip hop and eventually spilling over into popular culture as a sarcastic term used to mock the perceived vacuousness of hip hop culture.

Now prove yours!
