Biographical information is incorrect
[edit]The article states that Burd graduated summa cum laude (this is the highest possible level). Although this varies from school to school, Burd states in this interview he graduated with a 3.03. That is not cum laude, let alone summa cum laude. The article should be amended to state that he graduated from the University of Richmond. https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/rdaxm6/lil-dicky-isnt-a-white-supremacist-hes-just-an-asshole Burd states: "I worked at an advertising agency. Graduated college University of Richmond with a 3.03 GPA. I got a job at an advertising agency in San Francisco."
yup. he's right. the article doesnt say anything about college honors. 2600:387:8:9:0:0:0:B3 (talk) 03:47, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

Add into musical styles and influences: Burd has said in an interview that during his time studying in Melbourne, Australia, Umar Khasanov, close friend, aided his decision to become a rapper.

The line mentioning Lil Dicky has a step brother is not true. That sentence needs to be removed. The exact sentence is below. "...where Burd's step brother and comedy rapper Phatdik also attended at the same time." Referencing his show page: https://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/dave - his new show DAVE reflects on Lil Dicky's early life and now shows his experiences as an adult aspiring to be a rapper. His childhood is just him, with his parents (there is also an episode where he goes home as an adult and he is again an only child in that scene). Musicfan202020 (talk) 17:18, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Musicfan202020: Done - reverted the vandalism and added an archive-url to the reference. GoingBatty (talk) 03:28, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

It would be great to include a section of Lil Dicky's nicknames. A lot of his songs start with him calling himself a different nickname. Having them all gathered in one place would be fun page unique to his music and personality Mess588 (talk) 16:16, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

Minor Edit Suggestion: Add GaTA As a Cast Member of the Show
[edit]The credits list Dave, Taylor Misiak, and Christine Ko, but I'd humbly suggest giving dude a nod as well. I know it's not feasible to list every cast member, but it seems as if he's a prominent figure in Dave's life both on the show and IRL:
