A while ago, Tam and I decided to make mix CDs for each other of all the stuff we listened to in high school. It’s been hilarious digging through my CDs and remembering back to when I was a bad-ass rebel, running wild in the streets. (Seriously. I swear I wasn’t a dork.) I can’t say too much since we haven’t swapped yet, but I came across a lot of poptastic stuff from Back In The Day (aka: The Mid- to Late-Nineties).
“(Not The) Greatest Rapper”, I was disappointed to discover, actually came out just after I graduated, so I couldn’t put it on the CD. What? You don’t remember 1000 Clowns?! I can’t blame you really, they were sort of a flash in the pan. Maybe not even a whole flash. I couldn’t even find any information about them, or what became of them, on the internet, except for this scathing review of their album Freelance Bubblehead. Geez, lighten up, dude. I take music pretty seriously too, but everyone’s got to have a giggle now and then. “(Not The) Greatest Rapper” was a silly song by a silly group, but sometimes that’s enough.
As long as you’re not too cool for corny-yet-catchy novelty rap, watch the video here, or download the song below.
