Puns!!! George Burns and William Holden are famous dead actors who both had long careers. If you don’t know what a blunt is, then you also might be old or dead.

On November 12, 1981, Holden was alone and intoxicated in his apartment in Santa Monica, California, when he slipped on a throw rug, severely lacerated his forehead on a teak bedside table, and bled to death. Evidence suggests he was conscious for at least half an hour after the fall. It is probable that he may not have realized the severity of the injury and did not summon aid, or was unable to call for help. His body was found 4 days later.

“DL” is an abbreviation of down-low – meaning quietly or secretly. In the context of the next line, he further emphasises his quiet and mysterious nature with “low-key” – one of the meanings of which is similar to down-low.

In the context of seashells, when certain ones are held to the ear they produce a low, deep and engulfing sound that resembles the ocean. GZA is similarly low-key; a rapper’s dream. In music terms, a “key” is the measurement of the pitch of the note(s) or sound. Therefore, the sound you hear in seashells is literally low-key.

The word ‘seashells’ may also be a pun. Instead of simply referring to the obvious, it’s also a homophone for C-shells. C-notes are not particularly low-key per se, but they are often the lowest key on keyboards and basic scales―then again, they’re also the highest.

Dad: Listen to the GZA son. Listen to the sound of the Wu.
Son: Dad you were right. Wu Tang is for the Children

Pictured is Dr. Rockzo – the Rock N Roll Clown. Not a Juggalo.

But tyler knows after he hears this song they’ll ride his dick.
