white and nerdy

This morning we're doing the normal school run. I'm letting the kids listen to 'their' music, so we have some rap called Ridin' blasting from the speakers, by some guy names Charmander, or Charmillion or Pikachu, or one of them damn Pokemon things (can't remember which one...Squirtle maybe). It's a lovely ditty about a guy driving around with his music blasting from his vehicle and the cops stopping him to see if he is illegally possessing some sort of firearms because they're racially profiling him. It's a wonderful example of hip hop gangsta americana....almost Norman Rockwellesque. All the kids (ages 7 to 13) know it word for word. The youngster informs me its his ring tone. How special.

Here comes the cool part. The radio station follows it with the Weird Al Yankovic version, called White and Nerdy. Click the link and enjoy. It made my morning.
