I vastly dispise rap. This to me is not close, but I guess I can see where someone might think it. I note the rap I don't immediately hate is people who are actually playing instruments.

 Traditional African music has so infiltrated society in the past, Rap is but one offshoot but traces are in most all the popular "low brow" stuff like Jazz, C/W Rock and of course Blues. Now that more and more stuff like Tinariwen is being heard folks think it is copying rap, but is really the source of Rap with some updates added ... some from rap I'm sure. Full circle.

It's rather odd, but every time I hear the start of this song, I think it's going to be Flight of Conchords.

Kudos to your dog for being so discriminating, though I think he's got it wrong on this occasion. Maybe his ultrasonic hearing is picking up harmonics that us bipeds don't. Out of curiousity, how do you know when he is diggin it? Does he dance/bark/hump your leg? ;-)

Permanet WORLD-PARTY in MOTEL-6, it seems,
but you still haven't told me, who the heck else is
dancing your dance with you! Neither did you invite me!
If it's strictly boys, though - I am not interested anyway!
