Soulja Boy, “May Payne”
Grab the Draco, shoot it up like the Columbine / Call up my jeweler, he pull up wit’ ice chains / Two pistols on my hip like Max Payne
I briefly hung out with Max Payne writer Sam Lake during Summer Game Fest, and I really fucked up by not asking him what he thought about the Soulja Boy song named after the most famous video game character he’s ever created.
This is one of those references that you just know came directly from an artist getting really into a video game—Soulja Boy really digs Rockstar’s neo-noir shooter, and he wants you to know that he’s dual-wielding. It’s that simple.
