Alaska Rap
Yeah Pro’s been away a few days, wanna make something of it?
Pro knows the below vid is more than a week old, but damn, this is funny. I years ago stopped watching Saturday Night Live on a regular because I thought the show was on borrowed time. But this election season, the show has hit a new high as evidenced by this amazing piece. And it turns out that the “rapper,” Amy Poehler, did this just before birthing a son. Lord knows this kid’s gonna have jokes in pre-school.
And I don’t know if you all remember the original Weekend Update from the 1970s, but it sounded to me like Sarah Palin momentarily dropped that Upper Midwestern accent to affect a perfect Jane Curtin-esque “And have a pleasant tomorrow” when she closed the skit.
funny maybe but back in the day would not have gotten away with that but now we negro comfortable up in here
I took it as a slap at the Repubs using rap. I found nothing offensive about it. Trust, I don’t get upset over entertainment. ‘Course there was no gangsta rap back in the day.
I commented on your post about being negro comfortable. I will cop to being “comfortable” - but to a point. Don’t totally blame all of us for that. You gotta look at how some of us grew up. I knew nothing at all about the struggle ‘cause the parents, God bless ‘em, sheltered us.
