2K11 24/7

Doomz tackles a major challenge. A year at a time with daily updates!

The 2K11 24/7 CXXIII: Blue & Orange

He done did it again. 

So after the results of last night's election, I made a tweet about the current state of affairs in the style of Wiz Khalifa's smash hit "Black & Yellow":

Pastedgraphic-1

 

But then it got me thinking - what WOULD a rap about the massive landslide victories of the majority and official opposition parties sound like? That's when I got to work. 

When I'm writing a rap, I usually try to have a decent mix of the following:

  • Witty punchlines;
  • Topical statements; and
  • Multiple forms of rhyme structure

Didn't really have too much of these in the last event-based rhyme I put out, so I tried to do a little better this time around. 

When it came down to content, I tried to focus on:

  • The party platforms;
  • The events of election day; and
  • General critique of how we act as voters.

Anyway, this is what I managed to come up with for tonight's post :) I hope you enjoy it! Lyrics are found beneath the fold.
