Story Time!
So, I’m hanging out with my friend Eddie at his house, we’re sitting around, eating wings, bratwurst, and watching The Office on DVD. We decide to go out and find something to do, so we decide to start by going to Walmart. We look at the camping equipment for a little while (we’re setting up a hiking trip up in the mountains with some friends soon). We leave, decide to go grab a bite to eat at McDonald’s. Afterwards, Eddie decides to stop by Goodwill to see what he can buy with his $1 in cash. We walk around the back area for a little, until something catches our eye. An old VHS camcorder, sitting on the floor, for $12. We decide we can make some entertainment out of it, so I buy it, along with a VHS tape about Jesus. It’s cheaper than blanks.
We head back to Eddie’s house, charge the battery a bit, and figure out how to work it. Eddie dons a suit, I grab an unplugged mic, and we head to the mall. We get there, get to the door, and notice the sign says "No Video Cameras". Not wanting to cause trouble, we head over to the Target shopping center instead. First, we hit Game Stop. We walk in, Eddie starts recording, I walk up to a guy looking at games in the corner and say "Hello, we’re shooting a documentary for our college film class and we were wondering if you cou-KICK IT FREESTYLE!" At this point, Eddie starts beatboxing and I go "bickybickybicky" on beat. The guy stands there for a minute, then he actually starts rapping. I shit you not, we have it on VHS. I can’t remember it, but it started off something like "My name is Joe, I work at Chick-Fil-A". Everyone at Game Stop is laughing hysterically, so we head over to Target.
We walk in, walk up to some kid, looked about 15, and did the same introduction. He keeps walking trying to shoo us away. Then a worker comes up and says we have to leave. A set back, but oh well. We decide to head over to the local park. We target a guy sitting on a bench, use the introduction, and he starts rapping too! Something along the lines of "I’m sitting on a bench, look there’s a finch", etc. Unfortunately, the camera did not record this one, we think the battery may have died. Anyway, we plan on making a short film of people freestyling, though next time, we’ll have a boombox or something with some beats on a CD. I’ve got the camera, but Eddie wanted to show his girlfriend the tape.

I don’t think you can do that with a VHS camera.

After we’re done shooting. The video quality is horrible (see:VHS), but when we’re done, we’ll rip it from the VHS, edit, and upload.

I fucking love shitty rapping.
It’s mostly what me and my friends do wheneve we’re together. Just make up shitty raps off the top of our heads.
If you want I can type out a rap me and my friend wrote about arable farming.

If you love shitty rapping, download Steve-O’s rap CD. Its called The Stupidest Asshole in Hip Hop. I cannot give you a link, but google it. The third one down is the link you want.

I’ll keep that in mind, DB. But for now, sreep time.
I’ll post the Arable rap as a lullaby:
Up on da fields
that’s how I roll
fuck the hill sheep
Cuz I’m ar-a-ble
growin’ my crop
with the sun in the sky
gotta’ be ova six degrees, else they die
Cuz it’s like:
NO RAIN,
NO GRAIN
’das what I say
In East Anglia’s
where I play
growin’ ma wheat
’n’ growing ma hay
YEAH!
All night ’n’ all day.
Sittin’ in ma tractor
I am mowin’ Cannot stop these rhymes from flowin’
In the summer’s when I’m growin’
Only time I stop is when it’s snowin’
In the month of November of Feb-ru-ary
at this time, my income is scary
but that’s alright, das all good
cuz in the summer
I’m IN DA HOOD.
Cuz it’s like:
NO RAIN,
NO GRAIN
’das what I say
In east Anglia’s
where I play
growin’ ma wheat
’n’ growing ma hay
YEAH!
All night ’n’ all day.
Wheat, suga’ beat, carrots ’n’ barly
Oil seed rape
It’s all a party
I didn’t go to school - das right - no lectures
but I got ova 200 hectaz! (boi!)
I got fertile soils
my farmin’s commercial
I hope one day ma’ produce is tertial
I got ma flat land, dolla bills
Combine harvisters, can’t cruise on hills, boy!
All ma’ boys, all ma’ hos:
They all know their vegetables.
Cuz it’s like:
NO RAIN,
NO GRAIN
’das what I say
In east Anglia’s
where I play
growin’ ma wheat
’n’ growing ma hay
YEAH!
All night ’n’ all day.
Enjoy...

That camcorder was worth over $1,000 before you were even born!
