Dangerfield is great but his rap is definitely wack
The Waitresses “Christmas Wrapping” is super white but great. then there’s Rappin’ Duke, which is somehow canon. I guess the beat is actually rap tempo rather than the disco tempo that most novelty “rap” records used, and the rhymes – while simplistic – sound like they were made by someone who actually listened to hip hop instead of the outsider lyrics heard in e.g. the OP. but it’s still a head-scratcher how it is so loved and enduring.
I know you know it but for anyone else not familiar:
NOW! THAT’S WHAT I CALL WACK!
