“Baby ain’t got no back:” Sir Mix a-lot Shuns Moldova
Hip Hop star Sir Mix a-lot, most famous for his 1991 smash hit “Baby got Back,” declined an invitation from the Ministry of Culture to perform in Moldova over what his manager called “weighty cultural differences.”
While his representative didn't elaborate further, one can speculate that Sir Mix A-lot's well known bias for large bottomed woman, as well as his harsh critiques of Eastern European diets, factored into the declination. “When a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist and a flat butt in your face you don't get sprung,” Sir Mix lamented in an interview for this magazine last year during which he also characterized Moldovan culture as “rearcist.”
Sir Mix's condemnations of Moldovan eating habits have been no less severe. When asked about the vegetable rich diet preferred by Moldovans at a charity event last fall the rapper replied that, “I wouldn't feed my ladies borsh for the same reason I wouldn't pour it into the gas tank of my Hummer.”
Sir Mix's manager, well not exactly specifying what it would take to entice Sir Mix-a-lot to come to Moldova, did say that a nationwide ban on exercise, as well as the construction of more Mexican fast food restaurants, could help ease tensions between Moldova and the famous rapper.
