Tiger Style: A History of Tiger Woods Shout-Outs In Rap Lyrics

Tiger Style: A History of Tiger Woods Shout-Outs In Rap Lyrics

luda625luda

LISTEN:Ludacris "My Chick Bad" (2010)

LYRIC:"Now your girl might be sick, but my girl sicker/She rides that dick and she handles her liquor/Knock a bitch out/Annnd fight!/Coming out swinging like Tiger Woods wife."
GOLF SCORE: PAR. It's kind of noble that Luda is doing his part to help Tiger repair his marriage. You know, in trying to veil what may or may not have been an attempt on Tiger's life with a salute to a ride or die chick. Brothers gotta stick together, right? The question is, does Tiger recognize brotherhood outside of his Cablinasian roots?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
trifedagod

LISTEN: Trife Da God "Grew Up Hard" (2006)

LYRIC: "He coulda been the next Jordan, who knows, the next Emmitt/Young Tiger Woods or the new Aurthur Ashe in tennis."
GOLF SCORE: PAR. By this point rapping about Tiger as a benchmark of greatness was commendable, if not predictable but it's good to know that you can grow up in Staten Island and idolize someone other than Rod Strickland. Wu-Tang is for the children.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
nas2

LISTEN: Nas "These Are Our Heroes" (2004)

LYRIC: "Yeah, I wanna give a special shoutout to the, y'know, the crew doin' they thing out there reppin' us hard. Big up to Tiger Woods. Yeah, ya don't stop. Big up to Cuba Gooding Jr. Y'know, yeah, y'know. Tay Diggs what up my nigga. Yeah, ha-ha. And you don't quit, and you don't quit."
GOLF SCORE BOGEY. Really, it makes perfect sense that "God's Son," while releasing an album called Streets Disciple would use his platform to shit on Tiger and the others for what we can only presume is having white wives. Well, what if God was one us? At least now we can eliminate one of us.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LISTEN: Mos Def "Body Rock" (1999)

LYRIC: "Relax and pull a seat up, make your landlord turn the heat up/Got the opposition shook like Tiger Woods about to tee up."
GOLF SCORE: PAR. When it comes to referencing Tiger, Mos fared much better than his partner Kweli with this simple-yet-effective jab that plays up Tiger's intimidating side—ask Annie Leibovitz if you don't think he has one!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LISTEN: Chris Rock f/ Kool Rock Ski "No Sex In The Champagne Room" (1999)
LYRIC: "I drink champagne in the hood/I drink champagne with Tiger Woods (With Tiger Woods)/Huh!
(Tiger Woods y'all, Tiger Woods y'all, it's all good y'all, Tiger Woods y'all/It's all good y'all, Tiger Woods y'all, it's all good y'all."
GOLF SCORE: ALBATROSS. At the time it was alllll good.
