Speaking of the devil

Not even a couple days later after explaining Nelly's wonderful hit about nudity and high temperatures, I stumble across this gem of a video.





Apparently, the choices for this choir's selection was driven by the idea to bridge the generation gap, as well as the show how asinine hip hop songs' lyrics can be (as one said, how creepy is it when your grandparents are saying it?). Touché, senior citizens. Touché.

It also really showcases these songs' melodic simplicity - it's kinda jarring to expect choir music and hear an organ playing about 4 notes the entire song, and the choir unable to do any type of multi-part harmony.

That said, I wish this sounded less like a rehearsal and more like a really polished performance, because that would have sounded even more ridiculous.
