According to Soulshine:

"Executives at fast-food giant McDonalds have apparently noticed rappers habits of unabashedly shouting out brand names in their songs. While it’s usual Cristal or Jacob the Jeweller that gets the biggest mention, McDonalds is looking to change that shout-out to “Big Mac”. They’ve started a campaign that will give rappers incentives to start paying homage to the man with the big red afro."

i am going to buy a cheap AM station in a tiny market, change the format to commerical-free and only play songs with "big mac" in the lyrics. this may be a smart way get rich while making McDonalds poor for being dumb. i enrourage others to do the same.

next i will right my congress critter to see what he can do about putting the "big mac's" Nutrition Value chart on the CDs which contain "big mac" in its lyric, right next to the explicit lyrics label.
