it’s currently ranked #2 on youtube music for the day.
Oh lord. That was more than enough cringe. The hook of “I don’t care if I offend you” really hammers home that they aren’t offensive, just sheisty dramatic coat riders.
They’re so offended that their opinions are largely considered shit that they wrote a song solidifying that they are “men,” and disagreement with them makes them upset enough to attempt to write thinly veiled propaganda music in warehouse basements to broadcast to everyone as if they are somehow being silenced.
I’m not gonna pretend that I’m an expert on rap or anything but, like, this is shit.
Like, Ben Shapiro’s verse has the stilted cadence of one of those YouTube videos where people splice together PragerU clips.
Lyrically the whole thing is dogshit, but it’s especially glaring with Ben who has taken the same approach to rap that a child takes to poetry, creating rhyming couplets with no sense of flow or direction seemingly because that’s how he thinks it’s supposed to be.
I’ve heard better bars spat improvised at a wassailing, even after the cider has made a few cycles of the wassailers.
quickly googles patter song
The patter song is characterised by a moderately fast to very fast tempo with a rapid succession of rhythmic patterns in which each syllable of text corresponds to one note. It is a staple of comic opera, especially Gilbert and Sullivan, but it has also been used in musical theatre and elsewhere.
Sounds like a dorky enough thing for Ben Shapiro to do, but I don’t think that’s the case with his verse. He doesn’t seem to be singing that fast in comparison to his speaking voice and his bars don’t even seem to be on beat.
