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.

THE CALAMITIES - Bob Marley & The Wailers - "Could You Be Loved"

Another classic done Calamities style! Please note that without monitors on stage, the singers couldn't hear themselves sing.

Which is the reason I'm giving you for sounding like I'm yelling.

I can sing, really. I'll prove it to you sometime!

I'll karaoke with the best of 'em...!
