Jack's musical preferences
Of all the different musical selections we've tried, Jack seems to be partial to Wu-Tang Clan. On the one hand, I should be happy about this because while I am not a fan of hip hop in general, I have always had a secret fondness for Wu-Tang. There, I admitted it. I don't know why. Their lyrics represent everything I hate about the genre. They are particularly offensive and misogynistic. I just really like their voices, and their beats make me feel like dancin'. It's hard to dance from up here on my high, hip-hop-hating horse though. So, because I don't want to be one of "those" parents, I am going to make an effort to lighten up and dance with my son to Wu-Tang at least once a day. It'll do us both some good. I just hope the first words out of his precious little mouth aren't "bitch gimme my money".

How precious! Remember that episode of friends where they kept singing "Baby Got Back" to baby Emma? Try Sir-Mix-Alot.
Love, Aunt Alicia
The next step is to narrow down which of the Killer Bees Jack is particularly fond of. My guess is he's a Dirt McGirt or Inspectah Deck fan.
To be fair, "bitch gimmie my money" is from a straight up ODB track. Not a Wu-Ensemble track.
I know (sadly), but I couldn't think of an equally funny lyric from Wu-Tang.
