My musical taste is all over the place....

T.J. Davis - Diamond In The Sky [1997]

Sometimes, I can get obsessively into video game music and Sonic R had one of those cheesy 'so bad it's good' soundtracks. At first it was Living In The City then it was Can You Feel The Sunshine; now my favourite song from that soundtrack is this one.

Her voice makes you think she's a tall black woman with a powerful vocal range when in reality she's rather short, white and British.

Eminem - Bad Guy [2013]

Before listening, this song is a continuation of Stan, a song by Eminem and Dido on the original Marshall Mathers LP. A lot of people slagged off Marshall Mathers LP 2 but this song is a perfect continuation of the original plot that Stan established. Stan Mitchell's younger brother, Matthew Mitchell seeks revenge over the suicide of his older brother which he blames on Eminem. The whole song goes into his plot for revenge, how he knocks out Eminem with a chloroform rag, throws him into the back of a trunk and drives himself and the rapper off a bridge into the river to drown him.

The outro is a two minute masterpiece which goes into the moral dilemmas of everything Eminem has done in his personal life and his career, acting as a post death judgement of sorts. The final few seconds seem to suggest that MMLP2 will be his final album before he retires for good from music.

Carlito - Poco Loco [2006]

Jonny Jakobsen is a Swedish Eurodance singer whose failed career as a country musician led to him mocking other cultures in his music. His most notorious songs were Rice and Curry, Calcutta and S.O.S. under the pseudonym Dr. Bombay; songs which almost led the Indian government to sue him due to his mockery of their country and culture.

In 2006, he adopted the name Carlito and began to pass himself off as a faux-Mexican. Poco Loco. Surprisingly, his songs were not-so-offensive about Mexican culture even though he stereotyped it heavily and his music proved popular both in Mexico and Japan; so popular in fact that he released a second Carlito album which is something he never did as Dr. Bombay or Dr. Macdoo.

This song is... interesting to say the least. I think I like it because it's rather upbeat.

PaRappa The Gangsta Rapper - Cake Rap [2006]

This is a parody sketch of a PaRappa The Rapper level done by Marcus 'djWHEAT' Graham for Epileptic Gaming, a show he used to do back in 2006. He broadcasted it on his stream about 3 years ago. The best part is that his voice closely matches Parappa's in the game.

Just listen to some of the lyrics. That should explain everything.

I would actually pay real money for an album of just crude PaRappa The Rapper song parodies from the first and second game. I mean I would throw £30 at that album.
