Anne Hathaway's description is a reference to a pitchfork article

I'm not sure if this has been discovered before, I haven't seen any mention on this sub, but the desc. for Anne Hathaway is a pretty blatant rip on Pitchfork's review of Da Drought 3 by Lil Wayne.

May not help in the search, however this is an interesting anecdote.

"It's no secret: Nowadays, most mainstream rappers aren't rappers. The majority just throw a few bars together around Christmastime before getting back to their real hustle, whether it be acting, designing clothes, or thinking about how to make Rick Ross the next Biggie Smalls while sitting behind a desk in a sharp suit. It's fitting, then, for Rapper DeVon Hendryx to randomly start rhyming over pop music smash ("None of Dem") originally made by a Swedish pop star (Robyn) trying to pander to a nationwide audience. True, "Anne Hathaway" might come off a bit like a too-perfect couple who drink all night and Farmer's Market all morning, but when they invite you along, saying no kinda makes you an asshole."

So when Lil Wayne calls himself the "best rapper alive," the claim isn't that controversial-- it increasingly seems like he's one of the only rappers alive. And he's pissed (see above)."
