^bling bling was the title of a rap song a few years back, referring to the sound that supposedly is made by the jangling of a rappers chain, which is of course an ostentatious piece of diamond studded platinum.

He's right about James Lipton - he did sound pretty good, rapping at the end of the show.

...actually, it's referring to the glint of light off of diamonds and other precious stones, a la cartoons and the like.

Doesn't G-Unit stand for Gangsta Unit. That's what I've heard any way. And i also heard it stood for Guerilla Unit. I'm a bit confused.
