Last week’s iTunes update included a recording by the rapper Lil Wayne. The name got me wondering: How many other Lil’ Rappers are there out there?
By doing a simple artist search in the iTunes store, I came up with this lil’ list:

Soon there will be a new one to add to the list: Lil’ Swede is being groomed to take the rap world by storm.
In a surprising display of street sensibility and hip-hop mentality, Andy “Grampa” DeBoer proposed the Lil’ Swede moniker for the artist commonly known as Ben. Then, to capitalize on the buzz generated by the sobriquet—and to test-market the young rapper’s revolutionary new style—Karl “Big Daddy” Swedberg released Lil’ Swede’s first single in May, 2004 (cf. Ben and Dad Sing “Good Night”).
Fans/parents of Lil’ Swede, who was recently spotted wearing his first Swedish shirt, gave the rising star not only a “shout out” but also “mad props.” Meanwhile, player haters have been put on notice. Whatever that means.
Why should Ben’s Dad be surprised by my street sensibility and hip-hop mentality? I just don’t get it.
Here’s my strategy; Big Daddy releases a bunch of Ben’s stuff, all of which become huge sellers, and then I let Big Daddy know that I’ve got Lil Swede under exclusive contract. Then I watch the royalties roll in and retire to a life of decadent luxury.
I am frankly appalled at the way “some” children’s parents will put them out for stardom without considering the life that might tempt them into ruin. I mean, really. Anyway, I look forward to one day being able to say that I knew Lil’ Swede from back in the day when he was just a nobody sweet boy named Ben; my best friend, in fact.

Dear Julie,
Please read comment #4. Sad to say, nothing has changed since then.
hiya my name is kate courntey i want your babies will you marry me please p.s i love you
Hi Kate,
If you’re referring to my son, Ben, he’s still too young to marry—even in Arkansas. If you’re still interested in 14 years, feel free to get in touch. Furthermore, Ben has no babies to give you. I have two babies, but I plan to keep them.
Thank you for your interest.
hey does anybody knows lil’romeo’s address?
I will say it one last time: Nobody here knows Lil’ Romeo’s address,
email address, phone number, or any other private information. This web
site has nothing to do with Lil’ Romeo. Most people who visit this site
have never even heard of him. So, if you’re trying to get Lil’ Romeo to
marry or you or have your babies, please, please, please try somewhere
else. Comments for this entry are now closed.
