Fo' Shizzle
The debate over whether to rename Crenshaw Blvd. after late Mayor Tom Bradley rages. City Councilman Nate Holden wants to do it, but most of the steet's residents and businesses say it would take away the Crenshaw area identity.
What this L.A. Times story doesn't mention is how Crenshaw (as in "rollin' down Crizz-enshaw in my Hizz-ummer") is a regular name check in west coast hip-hop songs. Some how rapping about "Mayor Tom Bradley Boulevard" doesn't have the same ring.
