I love this! Need to learn English?! Just listen to a few rap legends. They will help you. Lol. Lions kicker Havard Rugland needed help with his english, so what did he do? Turned to music.
Check it out…
Via FoxSports:
Detroit Lions kicker Havard Rugland is Norwegian, and discovered he could learn English by listening to the Staten Island-based rap outfit Wu-Tang Clan.
“The first day we’re hanging out in the hot tub, right?” Lions guard Rob Sims told The Detroit Free Press. “I’m just talking to him and I was like, ‘You speak English really well. Man, where’d you learn English?’ He was like, ‘Mostly from movies and listening to Wu-Tang.’ It blew my mind.”
This makes sense, actually. Because rap music is so lyrically oriented, it makes sense for someone trying to learn the language. And although the Wu-Tang Clan was not the most radio-friendly rap act of the 1990s, they were one of the best at enunciation, and their minimalist production allowed the lyrics to stand out.
