I’ve always fancied a bit of Rap Music, infact my first rap song crush was The Wham Rap way back in the 80’s. Now that was a good tune.
I was also quite intrigued by Run DMC and of course the fabulous Beastie Boys – I’m still ‘fighting for me right to party’ actually.
These days, I find some Rap music just a bit dark and often quite rude. For this reason I decided to create a brand new sub-culture – Lightcore Prankster Rap - still hanging tough but politely and not so seriously.
You’ll find no guns, no violence, no illegal carry on, just the odd ‘cliche’ dig at the Hardcore and with this new tune -one lightly soiled nappy.
Recently, I was very lucky to meet a chap called Secret Agent 23 Skidoo who comes all the way from America. An established rapping Icon in the Family Music Industry and blimmin’ good he is.
He’s even a Grammy Award Winner so do check him out!
After a lovely conversation he came onboard to lay down some rather tight Beat Boxing Tracks and even threw in some extra MC ‘Bling’as well. I felt compelled to throw in some of me favourite 80’s ‘old school’ record scratches and then pulled in me old mate Mr Cheese for some cigar box guitar trickery.
Finally I layed down me ‘Lightcore Prankster’ Rhymes and there it was in all its glory – BABY RAP!
Another crossing of genres for me and more proof that I am infact capable of collaboration with others.
Get out ya fob watch, hang it round ya neck, draw on some fake tattoos and paint a tooth gold cos’ Lightcore Prankster Rap has just been born.
BABY RAP - Enjoy!
