I just wanted to give a shot-out to yung mula and Myself sense we both rep the packers hard.
Wayne has done a lot for bringing notoriety to the generally white bread culture of green bay:
"However, this past year when the Packers won the Superbowl, Lil’ Wayne released his hit “Green ‘n Yellow,” which was a tribute song about being a self-proclaimed Packer fan for a life. Weezy’s song provided this city with a new tier of national publicity because it illustrated this famous black man’s validation of our culture. I thought maybe this obsession would only manifest itself in my generation, but I recently asked my elementary school teacher mother if she had heard “Green ‘n Yellow” and she responded, “Heard of it? My entire school sung it during an assembly dedicated to the Pack after they won!” I’ll assume it was the edited version, but regardless, that’s a scene that never would have been embraced 15 years ago. Green Bay has the Packers to thank for that"
