Cool Things: The Lil’ Jon/Banana Phone Mashup

For those of you too young or with too deprived of a childhood, Raffi was this awesome guy back in the day who made silly kids’ songs about belugas, watermelons and banana phones. Why is this important in the far future of 2009? Because some idiot genius decided to mash up his song with Lil’ Jon. It’s such an obvious and kind of stupid idea that I totally wish I had thought of first.

The best part of the video? Not Lil’ Jon’s cameo at the end or the actual song itself, but the ridiculous older white man’s idea of “rap” back in the late 80s (early 90s?). Giant sunglasses and swaying tensely back and forth! Oh how “fly!”
