    Are you kidding me? This is the best live band I've encountered in ages. This band is beyond awesome! First of all, I've never seen anyone cover Rapper's Delight live, let alone white people. This guy's flow is flawless! He nails it, I mean, his version rivals the original. I stumbled on this as a fluke, totally random, but it lifted my spirits somehow. If I would have been at that party, I would have been all up on that dance floor. I can't sit still when a live band with a funky ass bass-- and a rapper who never misses a beat--is doing their thing right there in front of me. How people can be sitting around and not shakin' their groove things, I'll never understand. This band is top shelf: I'd hire them for any event. SO much fun. That guy has more talent than many some rappers out there on the airwaves today.

      Yeah, the early rap and hip-hop was new and fun. Not like now. The younger generation refer to some of their music as " mumble rap" and that's not a real compliment of their music according to my 22 year old nephew. It's more like frustration that most new music is crap. No feeling and no creativity, no content and no instrument playing.

      @@hotlatino7220 Sorta - By that I mean agree about its simple beat, yet you could also say it is long & winding lyrically, so there’s a LOT to memorize - and the phrasing and diction are novel, but still have to be spot-on and tonally correct, so there’s that…while I’m here I want to complement the bassist: the whole song revolves around it, IMHO
