Rudd vs. Howard '08 election rap battle

October 30th 2007 03:17
Sydney comedy outfit, Axis of Awesome, put this brilliant satirical video, a mock-rap battle between prime-minister hopeful, Kevin Rudd', and wannabe Commonwealthy kingpin, John Howard.

Most white-boy comedy rap is irritating to watch, and worse to listen to, but the lyrics combined with the bad-ass video make this just delightful.

Faux-Howard drops the first verse:

"My fellow Australians, I got something to say,
Im the man for the job, come election day.
I'll hit Rudd for six, I got all the tricks,
I'm the primest minister in Aussie politics.

I've been here since '96, and im doing swell,
I take care of the young, and the old as well,
From the city to the surf, to the R.S.L.
What up my Diggers?"

But when Rudd rolls in, the beat slips into a little West Coast G-Funk:

"Now make way for me, I'm the R-U-double-D,
I'm the flyest mother-rudder that you ever did see.
I listen to your voices, you making all them noises,
You say you didn't like it, so I'm rolling back Work Choices.
(Is it power you'll seize?)
I'll crush Howard with ease.
Now sit back, relax, while i speak Chinese."

What up, my diggers?
