Rapper Lil’ Wayne’s hit “Lollipop” has reached rock star status-literally!
Nashville, TN rock band “Framing Hanley,” recorded a rock version of the hit song, which has reached number 37 on Billboard’s Modern Rock Tracks Chart. The rock-remake is currently making its rounds on Youtube and Myspace. The band’s lead singer, Kenneth Nixon, tells Billboard that he is a huge fan of Wayne.
“He’s the originator and I hope he believes imitation is the sincerest form of flattery,” says Nixon.
Let’s just hope a royalty check comes with this rock band’s form of flattery. Lil' Wayne may be singing about "Lollipops," but I doubt he will let these rockers play him for a sucker!
