Writing in Weird Al for president

I were a rich musical artist, I consider a Weird Al Parody a badge of honour

IIIIII'll nab cabbage and do plant damage
I'mma masticate the crops I take
You can't grow carrots while I'm in here
Now my bunny ears cause your bunny fears so
While you re-seed and wonder why
Your farm's in ruins, corn has all died
Holes in sod, missing cabb-age
I'm telling you it's rabbitage

Listen, all y'all, it's rabbitage
Listen, all y'all, it's rabbitage
Listen, all y'all, it's rabbitage
Listen, all y'all, it's rabbitage

Ween fans understandably upset over this opinion.

Ween is a great weird band with eclectic albums. https://youtu.be/CLPQznD11xU?feature=shared & https://youtu.be/3nZmVy3g3CE?feature=shared

Igorrr I'd argue does not do "every genre", but they're unique. Metal and opera and electronic wub wubs. https://youtu.be/UZzYxGZ7Hmc?feature=shared & https://youtu.be/Osqf4oIK0E8?feature=shared

Yeah igorrr is a mashup of many genres but it's a fairly consistent mashup. You wouldn't see them doing contemporary pop music, for example. Neat artist though.

[–] Khrux@ttrpg.network 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Peter musicey? The big zoop band? Mooose? Spider-Man 2? Donny and the fridge raiders? Pitbull? Shani Block? I can't believe you haven't heard of these guys.

[–] MewtwoLikesMemes@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Don't know him, don't know them, Mooses are interesting creatures, love the movie, don't know who they are, love the dog breed, and the only Shani I know is the one from The Witcher.

.......So yeah.

[–] Khrux@ttrpg.network 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I made them all up except Pitbull who definitely is not this kind of artist it's all good. I'm the same as you I've not heard of any so I was recreating the feeling I had reading the first comment.

[–] MewtwoLikesMemes@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Fair enough. Haha.

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 months ago

If that's frank zappa that's the only one I know of

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

At least you put ween first.

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

[–] BmeBenji@lemm.ee 5 points 8 months ago
