swizz /swis/ v. 1 to mess up something
Have you ever farted at a bomb ass party? Crashed a brand-new Lexus? Spilled mustard on your new Afflicted t-shirt? Bought an Afflicted t-shirt? If so, you've swizzed before.
You may be wondering what swizzed is. The phrase is named after the biggest un-talent in hip-hop, Swizz Beatz, and his incredible ability to mess up every piece of music he is involved in. His beats typically suck, but on the rare occasion that he does produce something decent, he either stole it from a Casio keyboard pre-set or ends up ruining it by recording his hideous voice on the track too. He could probably make a track suck just by silently standing in the studio while it's getting recorded.
A prime example of Swizz Beatz swizzing a song can be found on the newly-leaked "Lord Lord Lord" with Mos Def, Kanye West and Raekwon. You'd think the song would be ruined once his horrendous verse starts, but no my friends, it's ruined within the first 15-seconds of the song - at the moment you hear his voice.
So, the next time you have swizzed something, you can at least take solace in the fact that you don't swizz everything. Only one man is capable of doing that.
