the daily beacon (UT's esteemed newspaper) has an article about swiperboy in today's edition:
Like many basketball players before him, including Shaquille O'Neal, Ron Artest and Allen Iverson, Woolridge not only excels on the court, but also in the studio. In fact, it could be argued that Woolridge is known almost more for his rap persona of "Swiperboy" than he is for anything else.
Swiperboy burst onto the scene last year with his song "Eric Berry," a tribute and Heisman campaign for then-UT football star Eric Berry. Following that song's success, Woolridge has gone on to produce his own music, and he even created his own label, Swiperboy Entertainment. Despite all of his successes in the music world, Woolridge remains adamantly focused on basketball.
"I had a record label offer that I turned down to come back to school," Woolridge said.
And in a hypothetical choice of either another season of UT basketball or a chance to work with Dr. Dre, Woolridge said simply, "I'm going with basketball." (via)
