GOT THE HEAT LIKE INSKEEP OR LINDA WERTHEIMER: Have you ever wanted a rap song about NPR which uses a sample from the All Things Considered theme song as a hook? Well, now you have it.
I always thought that the ATC theme song was ripped from the Beatles (the bit of I Will where they say "Will I wait a lonely lifetime?") but recently I was made aware of another musical connection: http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2009/01/atc-theme-overload.html
This is genius, y'all. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteIs it ok for the commenters to talk about rap when it's a white guy who's not very good at it?

ReplyDeleteWow, great rap. I'm digging the subtext: glowing in one's own incredible geekiness.
ReplyDeleteIt's always okay to talk about it, as long as you understand that in a great many cases, talking about it will make you look foolish.
