Lil Jon Isn’t Happy With A Republican Congressman Citing His Lyrics

Lil Jon has found himself in the midst of a Twitter feud with a conservative politician. Arizona Congressman Paul Gosar, who was up for reelection this year, tagged the rapper in a tweet which (incorrectly) cited his lyrics — and Lil Jon wasn’t having it.
Gosar, who proudly proclaims himself a MAGA “constitutional conservative,” was running for office against his Democratic challenger Delina DiSanto. At the time, Gosar was holding 69.69 percent of the votes, so he tried to land a joke about the number by referencing Lil Jon’s 2002 hit “Get Low.” Gosar tagged Lil Jon in the tweet, and the rapper wasn’t pleased.
Responding to Gosar’s dig, Lil Jon wrote, “DONT QUOTE MY SONGS BRUH,” then asked if the congressman was going to help Trump pack up and leave the White House.
DONT QUOTE MY SONGS BRUH. ON ANOTHER NOTE R You GONN HELP 45 PACK HIS SHIT UP

Lil Jon isn’t the only rapper who has recently clashed with a Republican politician over social media. When Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion released their internet-breaking collaboration “WAP,” many had their opinions about the raunchy track — including a few conservative politicians. A Republican running for Congress in California’s 33rd District was in an uproar about the song, tweeting that the rappers are “what happens when children are raised without God and without a strong father figure.” He added that he had to “pour holy water” in his ears upon hearing it.

Eylsia explores courage, identity and the unknown on latest release “What Will Become of Me”
Eylsia’s latest release, “What Will Become of Me,” is a cool pop starter that is built on catchy piano chords and synths. The song’s real strength lies in its honest questions about identity, courage, and what might lie beneath the surface. It is a dialogue with yourself, asking what happens when you stop looking outside and start looking inside.
Eylsia sings about finding courage within herself, a little light on her own, more than any mirror shows. It’s nice not to know, to feel like all the answers don’t have to be figured out today. The song isn’t seeking an ending or trying to resolve the question it is based on.
“What Will Become of Me” centers on the emotional core of self-discovery. The song has a very personal sense of independence, with lyrics about leaving a frame on the wall and not letting anyone else paint the answers in the sky. But Eylsia delivers a contemplative pop moment, with catchy musical elements and a message that leaves the listener with a question that could linger long after the song ends, and the courage at its heart to face the unknown.

Little Quirks expose perfectly timed romance on “Game Boy”
If every move is timed perfectly, romance can feel believable. Shiny charm comes from Little Quirks’ new single, “Game Boy,” which makes it a little more playful and a little more edgy. This is a rock-pop song for the smooth-talking romantic, the one who has all the moves down pat, from flowers on cue to moments that feel a little too cinematic.
This tension fuels the “Gameboy,” and Little Quirks balances an immediate hook with a darker undercurrent. That restlessness is key to the song’s appeal, and it gives the release a sense of constant movement, making its playful attitude active rather than passive. Beneath that happy surface is a smart doubt about romantic performances that are clearly designed to attract people.
“Game Boy” also clearly indicates an artistic shift for the New South Wales band. The track offers another glimpse into a bolder, darker chapter and a glimpse of their upcoming album, “She’s Wild.” Little Quirks never loses sight of the accessible qualities that make pop and rock so immediate, and it expresses the desirable ease of someone who always seems to know what to say or do.
The result is a release built on distinction, playful but pointed, catchy, energetic, and more questioning. “Game Boy” suggests Little Quirks is crafting a space between upbeat musical energy and downbeat emotional concepts. This new music comes from a band that is in a more confident, restless phase of their creative life.
