Mr. Ghetto
A trip to Wal-Mart has never been this shaking!
Summary
Mr. Ghetto is a New Orleans rapper who made a song about Wal-Mart... titled Wal-Mart.
It was removed from YouTube for a while but it's back up now.
Music video
The song has a music video where the rapper goes to Wal-Mart because all the girls are at Wal-Mart apparently. He meets a couple of girls with floral-print booty shorts who shake their butts a lot. They purchase groceries, boyshorts, pantyhose, and douche products. In between this they shake their butts as usual. How did they sit down afterward?
At the end of the video, Mr. Ghetto gets their numbers.
Reactions
Some people laughed at how stupid the video was. Others were offended by it, because they felt the video stereotyped black women from the New Orleans area.
