Thou Shalt Love This Video
A good friend of mine Kirsten Joy sent me this video one day through facebook. I was a little hesitant at first because of the fact im not really into these cyber youtube stars. But I gave it a chance knowing Kirsten and her good taste in music. I'm glad I did. The lyrics are stupendous, clever and hilarious. Scroobius pip is the name of the rapper, throwing down with a thick english accent his raps are made up gibberish. His name actually comes from a poem of the same name written by Edward Lear and left unfinished by him after his death. It was later finished by Ogden Nash and tells of a unknown animal named the Scroobius Pip and its attempts at classifying itself. Just like the poem of the same name Scroobius' raps are nonsense but still great and is a mix of between hip hop and jazz. Check out Scroobius right now and you'll be glad you did just like i was.
