McSweeney’s has a funny article translating rap lyrics into… dated vernacular. I seem to recall that we’ve done something similar here in the past.
I am embarrassed to admit that I can’t place some of the lyrics. I’ve got (spoilered in case people want to try to figure them out themselves) “I Wish”, “Baby Got Back”, “Whoomp, There it is”, and of course “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air” but I can’t figure out the others. Little help?
I think the fifth one is produced by a fabrication plant owned by Messrs. Robert Clivillés **and **David Cole. If my hypothesis is correct, the objective is mass perspiration.
