I don’t know if I quite understand the phenomenon that is Shwayze. But with his recent single Buzzin’ getting a healthy dose of airplay and a new reality show on Mtv, apparently some people do. First of all, the two words “Malibu” and “rapper” should never belong in the same sentence. And how can anyone ignore the rise of this middle-class lyricist with the annoyingly bad Malibu’s Most Wanted starring Jamie Kennedy:
Isn’t he basically a black version of Vanilla Ice? Anyway, the first time I listened to Buzzin’, I pseudo-liked it until I heard him shout out “representing for the 310″.

Starring a very pre-teen Sarah Jessica Parker 5,000 years before Sex and the City became a movie, the film follows her journey to the one thing every 80′s tween in pink spandex has always dreamed of: dancing on the cinematic equivalent of Mtv (yeah!).

The character was played by Justin Walker who went on to star in such amazing movies as “I Shaved My Legs for This” and “A.P.U.: Art, Pot and Underwear.” Oh, and he runs a restaurant in Palm Desert, CA. This is a movie he did in 2005:
