“This Seat Taken?”

The track is “Final Frontier (Instrumental)” by RJD2.

Because raps are very anthem-y and hyperbolic by nature, and it always seemed boring to me to rap exclusively about the fact that one is good at rapping, I tend to do a lot of “homage” raps.

I’m especially proud of this one because it’s never been written down, but I know I’d probably never release it officially anywhere because it got way too long and it doesn’t have as wide an audience as raps about Batman or robots or what-have-you. I plan to add verses every so often until it’s like half an hour, then maybe I’ll do something with that.

The vocals sound like they were recorded in a fishtank, on account of I use my webcam, on account of that’s all I have. Here’s a list of the rappers mentioned, in case you want to check them out. Also, if you know one of them, force them to listen to my creepy song! Please explain that I’m a comedian first.

• Eminem
• MC Frontalot
• MC Lars
• Optimus Rhyme
• Brother Ali
• DJ Format
• Abdominal
