The article says he did the following: He had been playing a sound bite of Lauryn Hill in which she states that her music is only for black people and that she is ashamed when white fans tell her they like her music.

This article is very lacking on informaiton about his career. It doesn't even mention his syndication at Infinity, for instance. (Though mysteriously mentions him returning to syndication.) I'm going to try to fill the section out a little more. (And, if I have time, expand his radio gimmick section as well.) Dormammu 19:12, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Greaseman should also be credited with creating the pop culture meme "Who's your Daddy?".

  • RE: "Who's your Daddy?": Check out this reference: A slang term meaning "I control you", which is often used in prison and by members of the underworld. The expression, which can be traced back to the mid 1800's, has two sets of connotations: "I am looking after you" or "you are defenseless". The former usage may be derived from the term "sugar daddy," and often has sexually suggestive undertones; the latter usage may allude to parental dominance and authority.

Today, the expression "who's your daddy" is commonly used as an assertion of domination or sexual control in return for payment or protection. It is also sometimes used literally, as an insult questioning a person's parentage.
