(let me explain....as a result of the marathon battles of Guitar Hero, I can now walk into any hole-in-the-wall bar and sing at the top of my lungs with my fellow gringos. "Heart-Shaped Box"? Check. "Shout at the Devil?" Check. "Message in a Bottle"? Check.)
So, when my sis gave Rapster to the baby daddy as a birthday gift, I was excited to try it out. The first thing I noticed was the small size of the mic (no dirty minds, children). As a HHK-veteran, I am used to the weight of a real mic. But, alas, this is HHK for my living room, so I just need to get over out.
Next, I was pleasantly surprised at the selection of songs. Everything from 'Gin + Juice' to 'Scenario' to 'Get Low' and 'Best I Ever Had'. Even though there is a nice selection, I would like to see MORE songs included. I am excited to see which songs can be downloaded.
Finally, this is a fun group party game. Our group of friends each took turns and it was hilarious to see folks perform. I quickly realized a couple of things:
1. 'Push It' really only has 2 words in the entire song. And some ahhh's in there too.
2. I know every single word to 'Crush on You'. Every. Single. Word.
3. IMTHATDUDE is painfully shy. Get on the mic, son.
4. Paj1 is so not shy. Did he really perform 'Turn My Swag On' in front of everyone?
All in all, an amusing game. I'm not sure how long one can stay entertained after running through the list of about 25 songs, which is why I need to look into this download option. Also, I forgot how entertaining some of these videos are. Seriously, the 'Scenario' video just so reminds me of being a teenager. Oh, and how much I loved skinny, backpack, Busta Rhymes.
Yours truly performing 'Slam' by Onyx. Yes, in a frilly blouse. I'm a mess.
"Painfully shy" - I don't think you went quite far enough. I was painfully sober and concerned that my rendition of Biggie's "Juicy" would somehow register a "You Aight" on the Dopeness meter. Imthatdude and I'm sick with the pen... not the mic.
