What we learn about Ron Artest from his Michael Jackson Tribute Song
October 15th, 2009
Unintentional comedy is still comedy nonethelesss. So bad, that it is good, this “rap” by The True Warrior gives us some insight into his personality, character… even at the expense of our respective eardrums while we listen to his *very* poor attempt at finding rhythm and rhyme.
I post this in lieu of the realization that the Lakers [essentially] traded good-guy, high upside, athlete and team-player Trevor Ariza for Ron Artest and Khloe Kardasian.

Lakers traded for this?
Ron, simply, is a nut as we learn from listening to his song. Here is what we learn about Ron Artest from Ron Artest:
- That Michael was his N-word
- He wanted to touch Michael’s hand
- He cried for Mike (often and repeatedly, based on the chorus)
- He understands controversy
- He understands about people wanting to hurt him
- He understands about having to grow up ‘early’
- He knows what it likes to not feel worthy
- Mike (MJ) showed him ‘love’… even if he didn’t know it
- MJ never knew him
- He thinks Mike’s music was ’straight crack’.
- The heartbeat of MJ is living inside Ron’s body (and apparently in ours too).
- MJ is the most official and inspired Usher and Jaime Foxx
- He believes that MJ is still alive; or that someone is keeping him alive. Could be figurative, though I’m not sure Ron really understands that based on this song.
- Ron is moving to the moon… or to sand dunes.
- Ron is strapped, always.. but he put it down for Mike… not sure how long the non-strappness is going to last.
