    HELL NO it isn't plagarism, and people who are telling you that it is are either trolling you or just ignorant. He doesn't have sole right to ownership over those two words next to each other. Hell no. that's not even how it works, that's NOT what plagarism is. First of all, "walking paradox" is not trademarked or copywritten and even if it was, you can still say it, those are words in the English language. Second of all, rappers do that ALLLLLLLLLLL THE TIME... sometimes it's because they are paying homage, sometimes it's for other reasons. Third of all, you're not even making any money off of saying that, so really, nobody would even care. No offense but you're not famous or anything, it doesn't matter what you say.

    you could technically call it an allusion. Tons of people allude to "The Yellow Brick Road" and nobody says they are plagiarizing the Wizard of Oz.
