Houston We Will NOT: A Plea to Stop “The Kim Kardashian”
July 7, 2009 by Keisha Jenkins
A cursory visit to YouTube left theblvdmag.com speechless. There is a competition for Houstonians and others to create a dance for the city’s first Dallas era tune, “The Kim Kardashian.” Lil’ Flip’s ode to her, Kim Kardashian is a result of a mixture of the need for “artists” to create a dance to some known chicks name so we can, well, dance. It’s the ugly cousin of Hurricane Chris’s ”Halle Berry” and some of that good ol’ Dallas dude music.
Make no mistake, theblvdmag.com has no issue with Kim Kardashian, and we kind of don’t have an issue with Lil’ Flip, but we do have an issue with said song and dance.
Houston, c’mon, we’re known for making classics. Classics that wannabe “artists” steal for their personal ambitions. June 27 ring a bell anyone? Remember Gangsta’s don’t dance, we boogie, and Boulevardiers don’t do none of that either. So how about you sign this petition and keep the Houston tradition alive.

I would like to challenge rappers to make a song without a reference to cars, women, bling, or money and see who steps up to the challenge. It won’t be Lil’ Flip. These girls might have future in choreography though-lol.
those girls worked really hard on that dance, a little too hard.
Speechless…
Lawd…..I had to put my head down for this. The guy in black; a hot mess. If we would half as much mental energy into our education and/or careers, we would be fierce! But instead, we play into foolishness and lower ourselves to dancing and bucking all over the place. Wow people! AND Lil’ Flip! You have lost me. You been gone ALL this time and this is the best you can do? I see you have not grown up. Chasing and making music after money-hungry whores. What a contradiction for you.
