We got tipped off to a
song called "Video Games" by the Christian rapper, KJ-52. The novelty
of the song is not only that he works religious themes into a rap about video games, often with humorous results, but
that he sounds like Eminem doing it! If you're anything like me, you often ponder the eternal question, "What would it sound like if Eminem got himself some religion, and then rapped about video games?" We don't have to wonder anymore... we know.
Some of the best jams:
-"That's why He paid the price for your sins, on top of that he wants to run your life like The Sims."
-"...three days later, go raid the tomb like Lara Croft."
-"They cut him up first like Ninja Gaiden, then beat him down worse than, uh, Double Dragon."
-"Here's a story, ain't Legend of Zelda, it's about Christ, who was a Space Invader."
I think he's thinking of a completely different religion with that last one. And for the sake of equal time and to indulge my hip-hop fantasies:
"Growing up I was stuck playing NES, until I got a Genesis from His Noodliness."
