Separated at Birth? Lil Wayne and Shenehneh from Martin
You know, these days you can’t swing a bottle of Hennessy without hitting a Lil Wayne verse. Homeboy’s got his little turtle head up in errrrythang: from Robin Thicke collabs to Q-Tip joints, Weezy’s crazy croak is in the air! For real, he’s like a photobomb, but for rap music.
But this isn’t the first time we’ve seen this kind of scene stealing. Back in the day, the Martin show had a character named Sheneneh Jenkins who had jack game proper.
How can these two possibly be related? I’m glad you asked. Let’s analyze:
| Weezy | Sheneneh | |
| Hometown | New Orleans | Detroit |
| Hair | Dreads | Braids |
| Drink | Sizzurp | Malt liquor, 40 oz |
| Disposition | About to pass out | Angry Black Woman |
| Love Life | Inexplicably keeps getting women to bear his children | Inexplicably had dates with Chris Rock and Kid of Kid ‘N’ Play |
| Looks Like | A turtle with dreads | Mr. Ed with braids |
| Work Ethic | If you have a track, Weezy got a verse. | Has a job as a weave technician, but never seems to leave the apartment hallway |
| Best Known For | Raps about aliens | Snaps about yo momma |
| Level of Self Delusion | “I am a martian.” | “I’m a lady, and you don’t disrespect no lady!” |
| Quote | “Talk to me like you talking to Martin Luther King or Malcolm X.” | “I like to stay cute in the face, and thin in the waist.” |
But on the real, Weezy shows up and gets himself into some nice music. A few samples:
