While I'm on Rap parody , Weird Al needs more pushing!

His new parody, of a Chamillionaire single, "White and Nerdy" is a work of genius, as most of the stuff he does, I never thought I'd see something musical that Donny Osmond could add something to.

Also was nice to see another track of his, "Don't download this song" making fun of the ridiculous level of anti downloading going on by the suits in the music industry, when a vast amount of artists realise sales are going up, they've been going up for a long time, and if you produce QUALITY material, it'll sell, its maybe just that consumers are sick of buying cds with 2 decent tracks and 10 tracks of mindless talentless filler.

Sure there's people out there that download everything, when they could afford to buy things, but I believe the vast majority will want to own things that they love.

After all, if ANYONE in the world has become famous and made cash out of having just about everything he's ever made downloaded and shared around for free, its Weird Al, I'd guess at least half of internet users with an mp3 collection have at least one of his tracks in there somewhere, such is the popularity of his work online, despite being pretty much ignored by the mass media pretty much constantly during a 25 year career.

Shawshank in a minute

Now Shawshank Redemption is one of my favourite movies ever, so anyone spoofing it would have to be pretty good to not incur my wrath...

However a new comedy group called 'Famous Last Nerds' recently won a sketch contest with, an damn fine spoof rap (yes, rap) version of the movie, crammed down into about 2 minutes.

Anyways, go see!

Shawshank in a minute!
