I know I may be late…But heaven knows I’m busy! I have a job, gym, friends, family, active social life, *in Kevin Hart voice* I got kids man; so I may not be as up on Facebook and YouTube trends like people who “live” on these sites, but hey, say what at least I finally know what the fox said, and who is Ram 2.
If you are sitting there scratching your head be thankful you don’t know what the jail I’m talking about, but it’s ok. Daddy is gonna break it down for ya.“What Does the Fox Say” is an insanely popular (at the time of this typing just over 167 MILLION views on YouTube) song and accompanying video by Norwegian (had to be uber foreign) comedy duo Ylvis which primarily deals with the kindergarten topic of animal sounds.
Suffice it to say, it’s worse than “Gangnam Style” and doubly infectious. It is also woefully misguided and uninformed.
The second viral video and topic of this needless article is Ram 2, more specifically “Who is Ram 2, the documentary”. This video, locally made and with a shockingly high production value, follows intrepid cellphone and videocam reporters spanning the globe, ubiquitously enquiring, “ Who is Ram 2?” to any passerby or nonviolent person they meet.
I say nonviolent because I know during the filming of this I wouldn’t be approached because I’m way too big, muscular and surely to be approached with such forkries…but I digress.
This mockumentary was created in response to a pseudo rap “beef” between local underground (read nobody you ever heard of) rappers King Tut and Ram 2. Some other underground rapper is involved but he is too small of a small fry to mention in mentioning this small fry “beef”.
Again, I digress…anyway the moral of this article is these 2 videos while mildly funny and moderately entertaining have become major time wasters and topics of discussion at work,gym, ze bar, ze smokers’ cypher so needlessly!
*In best Kamla celebratory (read tight) voice* My people! Stop! Come Home! Let’s let these viral fads die a quick death nah please…por favor! I fed up hear “ding ding ding ding ding!” and “Who the fork is Ram 2?”
Don’t we have better things to talk about? Like crime, healthcare, illiteracy, racism, bigotry and intolerance, cost of living, politiricks, global warming…coitus?!Sports?! Why can’t these blasted videos go the way of “Redman” and the dodo? Didn’t google inventors get rich by being able to answer such questions in seconds? So don’t we know what the forking fox say and who the fork is Ram 2?!
So in closing, find something better to talk bout and reference please Trinbago! Meh head hot!
P.S. And Tyler Perry… sorry I mean Ian Alleyne still running for MP?….Jesus take the wheel!!!
