Big in the wide shot.
Subtle in the closeup.
haha
WORD
If not, I'm disappointed, man. Expletives used intelligently can actually emphasise a point but this was just crass.
I expected better, Donald. Your comedy work I'm a big fan of ... this, not so much.
The beat is catchy and the single-shot take is praiseworthy but it's let down by crude lyrics. Like I said, that's a disappointment because Donald is clearly an intelligent comedian.
Falls far short of 'awesome', IMHO.
"ee cumming on her face, now that's poetry in motion."
"Took the G out of your waffle, all you got left is your ego."
"An Elephant never forgets, so my dick remembers everything."
I thought it was great. To each his own.

Again, I'm far from a prude but I feel you can go too far sometimes, to the detriment of the song even. It's not like I'll stop listening to him altogether in protest (lol), I just hope for better next time.
Ethan, thanks for the link. As a Briton, the only ones that were beyond me were the Eggo's Waffles and the Ariel Pink references.
That's the sound of my point going over your head.
Hip Hop ultimately derives from blues. There were blues songs as far back as the 1930s (and even earlier) called "Pet your poodle" and "Your southern can is mine", all based around sexual double entres. I'd say that if you leave that out of hip hop, you're denying the music its lyrical and societal roots.
Plus, its just words man, lighten up and get over yourself.
FWIW I believe hip hop's roots lie in articulating the state of what was often seen as societal urban anathema by politicans (drugs/crime/poverty etc.) in the late seventies. Even if we were to attribute its roots to blues, so many genres could be said to have been derived from blues that it would be unfair to cite one or two specific examples from that genre to legitimise more widespread use of such imagery in this gnere when other 'related' genres have succeeded without it.
FTR, like I said I'm far from a prude and there's nothing to 'get over'. I still have the 'g' in my waffles ;) .
just kidding, this video sucks camel dicks in hell.
swag me out

But if Adam Sandler could do folk why can't Donald do rap right?
But like the shot very much
