You guys, I am here to discuss the most important controversy of our generation: Lil Yachty thinking you can blow into a cello.
Let's break this down. In the song "Peek a Boo", Lil Yachty raps "My new bitch yellow / she blow that dick like a cello."
Sure, it rhymes, but it also doesn't make any sense because last time I checked, you play a cello like this:
The best part about this is that Lil Yachty actually took time out to explain the lyrics in an interview with Genius. It is a masterpiece of an apology:
OK, let's stop for a second. Before you come at me, I'mma let you know. I'ma blame my A&R. Because he listened to that song many times and he allowed me to say that. I guess for a second I thought a cello was a woodwind instrument and it is not. And nobody ever said shit. ... Nobody ever pulled up a pic and said, "Hey man. I don't know if you know what this is, but it ain't that." ... I fucked up. I thought Squidward played the cello. He don't. That's a flute. I fucked up.
Any person who uses Squidward Spongebob Squarepants as an example is A-OK in my book. But it's important to note that Squidward played the clarinet, not the flute.
A fact that other people seemed to notice, too:
Anyways, I am here for it. All of it.
Several rounds of applause, Yachty. 👏🎻👏🎻👏🎻
