Weird Al Yankovic - White And Nerdy

by

I know this is a few months old but I couldn’t resist posting it here for anyone who may not have had the pleasure. I love Weird Al Yankovic and have done since the 1984 days of the ‘Eat It’ spoof of Michael Jackson’s Beat It. This song ‘White and Nerdy’ was the 2nd single to be released from his album ‘Straight Outta Lynwood’ which is a brilliant spoof on NWA’s seminal ‘Straight Outta Compton’.

This song itself parodies the song “Ridin’” by Chamillionaire and Krayzie Bone and does it extremely well. so well in fact that Chamillionaire himself put “White & Nerdy” on his official MySpace page, and commented that he enjoys the parody. He was also surprised by Al’s rapping skills as was I when I first heard this song, he’s not half bad!

The video is excellent, really ripping into white rap culture and doing a superb job of all the little references and asides. For a full list of all the subtleties visit the White And Nerdy Wikipedia page. Also be sure to check out Weird Al’s MySpace page. Top stuff and a video and song that I never tire of watching.
