This resurfaced video of *NSYNC doing the Pokémon rap is so cringeworthy it’s perfect

TwitterFacebook

The ’90s were a great decade for many reasons, the sheer number of boybands being just one of them.

It was also the decade where we first got into Pokémon, long before they became interactive characters to be caught all over town with your phone in augmented reality. 

A video has now resurfaced combining these two ’90s phenomena, and it’s truly the perfect dose of ’90s nostalgia.

On Twitter, podcaster @DinosaurDracula shared a video that features *NSYNC doing a cover version of the “Pokérap,” a rap song that pretty much just consists of a list of Pokémon names.   Read more…

The world needs a Beyoncé rap album

TwitterFacebook

If you ask some people, DJ Khaled dropped a song on Friday morning featuring Jay-Z, Future, and Beyoncé. 

But if you ask the right people, the only person that mattered in terms of Friday releases was Beyoncé — despite the fact that she appears for less than a minute on the fragmented song that Kevin Hart promised would cause a worldwide “flatline.” Sorry, Kevin, but nah.

On “Top Off,” the first single from DJ Khaled’s upcoming album, Queen Bey stood out — not just because she’s Beyoncé Giselle Knowles — but because she raps. Rare Beyoncé bars were dropped with a ferocity that stopped the music world and made it incredibly clear that the people are dying for a Beyoncé rap album.  Read more…

Ed Sheeran ‘raps’ on Taylor Swift’s ‘reputation’ and Twitter is having none of it

TwitterFacebook

Taylor Swift’s reputation has finally landed and Twitter doesn’t even know where to start.

How about Ed Sheeran havin’ a wee rap?

Swift joined old mate and “rapper” Sheeran and actual professional rapper Future for the second track of the highly anticipated album, dubbed “End Game.”

Twitter was having none of it.

Ed Sheeran is somehow worse at rapping than Taylor Swift is. This EndGame song has a great chorus and Future rap, though. Basically everything except the intro and the Sheeran rap are A+
