Freakin Hysterical

You have probably seen this already. I know I actually saw it live, and then I downloaded about week later because it's absolutely great. This is the angry, white rap from SNL by Chris Parnell and Andy Samberg "Chronic-what-cles of Narnia" about tasty snacks, their favorite mapping software (talk about true street credit), and of course, these two buddies going out to see a movie together (angry!).

What's worth bringing this back up to post, besides still being funny, even if it is old, is that it has now been downloaded by millions of people throughout the country and has sparked a kind of new East Coast - West Coast rap rivalry. Now angry white guys from all over are posting their own versions of angry cracker rap about such thuggish topics as the Color me Mine store (a paint your own pottery venue in California). I have even seen one about Myspace.com. This page has links to other videos entering the competition, such as this low quality attempt Lazy Holy Day -- Chronicles of Jihadia. (some people just have too much time on their hands.)

Yeah, I'm still waiting for the "angry cracker rap" section in the iTunes Music Store.
