Scott Pilgrim is a series of graphic stories by Bryan Lee O'Malley. It consists of six digest size black-and-white volumes, released between August 2004 and July 2010, by Portland-based independent comic book publisher Oni Press. It was later republished by Fourth Estate, an imprint of HarperCollins. The series is about 23-year-old Canadian Scott Pilgrim, a slacker and part-time musician who lives in Toronto and plays bass guitar in the band Sex Bob-Omb. He falls in love with American delivery girl Ramona Flowers, but must defeat her seven evil exes in order to date her.
A film adaptation of the series titled Scott Pilgrim vs. the World starring actor Michael Cera in the title role was released in August 2010. A videogame of the same name developed by Ubisoft for PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade was released the same month.
Creator Bryan Lee O'Malley was inspired to create the series and eponymous character of Scott Pilgrim after listening to Canadian band Plumtree's 1998 single "Scott Pilgrim", a song then-Plumtree singer Carla Gillis describes as "positive, but...also bitter sweet." In particular, O'Malley was inspired by the lyric "I’ve liked you for a thousand years,".
Andre Romelle Young (born February 18, 1965), better known by his stage name Dr. Dre, is an American rapper, record producer, record executive, entrepreneur, and occasional actor. He is the founder and current CEO of Aftermath Entertainment and a former co-owner and artist of Death Row Records. He has produced albums for and overseen the careers of many rappers, including Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent and Game. As a producer he is credited as a key figure in the popularization of West Coast G-funk, a style of rap music characterized as synthesizer-based with slow, heavy beats. As of 2011, Dr. Dre is ranked as the third richest figure in the American hip hop scene by Forbes with a net worth of $250 million.
Dre began his career in music as a member of the World Class Wreckin' Cru and he later found fame with the influential gangsta rap group N.W.A with Eazy-E, Ice Cube, MC Ren, and DJ Yella which popularized the use of explicit lyrics in rap to detail the violence of street life. His 1992 solo debut, The Chronic, released under Death Row Records, led him to become one of the best-selling American performing artists of 1993 and to win a Grammy Award for the single "Let Me Ride". In 1996, he left Death Row to establish his own label, Aftermath Entertainment. Under that label, he produced a compilation album titled Dr. Dre Presents the Aftermath in 1996, and released a solo album titled 2001 in 1999, for which he won the Grammy producer's award the next year.
If that is what you're making then why are children naked
Dying in the streets of the day
Homeless this man on a corner begging for a quarter saying sir can you spare some change, oh
I wish that I could take all the pain in the world and make it go away, but I can't
The work you do will sure inspire you
To go loud, scream out, don't stay in a box, break out
Every boy and every girl gotta make a difference in this world,
Gotta make a difference in this world, gotta make a difference in this world
Gotta make, gotta make, gotta make, gotta make, gotta make a difference in this world
Don't go acting like a fool, shoot some schools, violence escalating everyday
Has the world gone mad, looking at we're at?
I'm afraid to have a baby cause it's not safe
I wish that I could take all the pain in the world and make it go away, but I can't
The work you do will sure inspire you
To go loud, scream out, don't stay in a box, break out
Every boy and every girl gotta make a difference in this world,
Gotta make a difference in this world, gotta make a difference in this world
Gotta make, gotta make, gotta make, gotta make, gotta make a difference in this world
I still believe that with love we can conquer
All men are equal and God is our Father
Ain't nobody gotta hate tonight, nobody got a dynamite, oh
Now we will join hands tonight six billion straw won't stop them go
Go loud, scream out, don't stay in a box, break out
Every boy and every girl gotta make a difference in this world,
Gotta make a difference in this world, gotta make a difference in this world
Gotta make, gotta make, gotta make, gotta make, gotta make a difference in this world
I still believe that with love we can conquer
All men are equal and God is our Father
Gotta make a difference in this world, gotta make a difference in this world
