Grandparents Rapping Baby Got Back (Vid)


Finally.  Just when I was giving up hope on finding a meaningful way for senior citizens to contribute to modern day society this rapping set of grandparents falls in my lap. 

First, a confession.  I never knew the lyrics were "LA Face, with an Oakland booty" until just now.  I know just about every other lyric in the song, but I always just mumbled my way through or skipped it when acting out my gangsta rap aspirations on my morning commute down the highway.  True I could have looked it up, but honestly, I don't need that in my search history. My Google cred would plummet, the search engine would probably just laugh "haha this honky doesn't know the lyrics to one of the most popular rap songs in the past 20 years." No one wants that.

But with rapping grandparents?  They say the lyrics so slowly that just about anyone, no matter how white, can pick up on the correct words.  And because they're old, they don't have to care about their google cred.  They can look up rap lyrics all they want, shit that would make them cooler than the average OG (old grandpa).  

These two should have their own youtube channel, just banging out the lyrics to all of the hardest songs in the past 20 years (perhaps a daunting task given the obvious time constraints they're facing, but everyone needs a goal to aim for).  

My personal suggestion for their next performance, Snow's Informer.  No matter how many times I hear that song I still have no frigen clue what he's saying.
