They reproduce crap as it is, so it's great?
Yeah I don't get it. Parody usually adds a little something to whatever it parodies so it shines a bit. The other ones have that and I dig them. This one.... Sorry, but no, it's either too much or not enough, I don't know, but it doesn't work.
(That said, feel free to love it though. I'm not implying that everyone should think like me)

Well, but it's not really as it is, because it's so unbelieveably lame. Like, two nerdy guys wouldn't
really make a rap emphasising how much of a great party they were having whilst not having one, but they might make a lame rap attempting to big themselves up to some degree, and this just takes that to an extreme level, both an extreme level of bad-rapping and also an extreme level of nerdish wannabe lameness. It also sort of rings true if you've ever tried to make a video of some kind at home with your mate and... whoops, you just have you and your mate and your house and it kinda sucks.
In the same way that T-Pain wouldn't usually feature on a rap about being on a boat, but rap of that kind very often does emphasise material assets and the videos are often shot in exotic and expensive-looking locations to make the rappers look important and powerful, and again, it just takes that to an extreme.

Actually the line that does get me is "I like whisky too, and I smoke cigars/If you don't believe me, smell our cars" ;)

Un-video'd songs on Incredibad that make me fucking laugh:
Sax Man (although the joke only really works the first time you hear it)
Shrooms (should be longer, even if they just repeated the same 2 sections for 5 minutes)
Like A Boss (A++++++++++++++++ funniest thing on the CD)
Dreamgirl
The Old Saloon
Incredibad (channelling the beasties)

How anyone could have let this thread go so far without mention of Boombox is beyond me... seriously, I'm loving this song to death. Perfect.
