I need sum dat rap musak to peform at a talent shoa!

[The Wonder Weezel]

Sooo.... my friend and I are a couple of characters looking for something to do at the next talent show. We are just a couple of silly nerdy white kids looking to do something that is TOTALLY NOT US.

For example, our initial plan was to do "Buttons" by the Pussy Cat Dolls and dress up in all fake leather and stuff... but then realised we need a large group who can steadily sing. We dont want that, we just want 2 or 3 people.

So now, our new idea is to rap. Get the most obnoxiously puffy pants we can find, the hats with the largest brims we can find, and some frickin huge chains to hang off of our necks..... and boy, can we rap.



So I was just looking for some suggestions for a song thats really got a beat to it, that gets people bouncing up and down with "they hands in the air." Also something where two people can banter back and forth a lot if necessary. However, its a talent show, so it cant be OBVIOUSLY about sex or drugs or something. If it says the S-Word in it once, we can replace it with the word "stuff" for example. Thats fine. Just not over-the-top bad topics.

For example, "Gold Digger" happens to be a good one. During the chorus we'd just to the "Broke, broke" edit they do on the radio. But, we arent doing that one, because it's been done recently at our school. So can I get some suggestions? Ill literally download every suggestion I get to check it out!

Runedit: Removed a word in the title that is consided a swear word.

I think you provided your own answer; "White and Nerdy" by Weird Al! Seriously, it'd be so funny!

Other than that, I have no idea. Almost every rap song has swearing in it at some point.

I guess you could imitate the beasty boys. But then are you being anti-semitic?

I think so.

[Ammer]

I second "White and Nerdy"! That'd be hilarious.

One of my favorite songs is "Jump Around", by House of Pain. It's a little old school at this point, but I can't get enough of it. I just looked up the lyrics and there's about three words you might have to change in it.
Let's see what else I have in my ipod...
Beastie Boys (Fight for your right to party, Intergalatic)
Biz Markie (Just a Friend)
Sugarhill Gang (Rapper's Delight, Apache)-- very old school
Ice Cube (Check Yourself)
Outkast (The Way you Move, Hey Ya)-- Now Hey ya is about a one night stand, but they saw fit to use it on one of those Kidz Bop Albums, so I'm guessing it's pretty clean

I can't vouch for the cleanliness of most of those lyrics, but hopefully it'll give you some ideas or a place to jump off from.
