Misquoted Beenie Man lyrics are the latest Twitter game
Beenie Man is trending again, BUZZ fam, but this time, it’s not because of his world-famous tummy or hilarious antics during his Verzuz bout against Bounty Killer.
#JamaicanTwitter users are poking fun at a comment made by American comedian Amanda Seales, who enjoying Beenie Man’s hits misquoted the deejay’s 1996 womaniser anthem, Old Dawg.
“Old dawg light weight,†she commented, and
with the advent of screenshots, the mistake was immortalised forever.

After many a meme were made in her honour
on Saturday (May 23), Seales admitted that’s how she’s sung the song ever
since, but will make the effort to get right.

effect.
