“I was an ugly-duckling kid. Nobody liked me. My lips were this size when I was 12. You can imagine what I looked like. I had a big-ass head, big lips, and I used to like to read so much that I would walk down the street literally with my head in a book, only looking up to cross the street. They used to call me ‘Old Man Artis’ ” — Coolio, real name Artis Ivey Jr., on the Radio Happy Hour on DrBlogstein.com . . .
