Mr. B, The Gentleman Rhymer, Schools You in Chap-Hop History

dandye west

You are welcome to dislike this video of a foppish fellow spitting hot fire in the Queen’s perfect English.  It wouldn’t be hard.  White people covering extremely mainstream rap in a jokey, square way is pretty played-out, by and large.  But white people covering extremely mainstream rap in a jokey, square way accompanied by a banjo for little people?  Still a gimmick!  But all those things in the form of a man wearing a twirling mustache and smoking a pipe?  I mean, you can try to stay real in the face of so many delightful novelty hijinks piled one on top of the other here, but delightful novelty hijinks are like bees, in that you can groan and roll your eyes at one or two of them, but when a giant, seething, thundering wall of them topples you over, you can’t help but crack a smile.  Now pretend that analogy is logically correct and watch “Chap-Hop History,” a medley of rap by Mr. B, The Gentleman Rhymer, after the jump.
