"Ant Rap", which, even if it wasn't great (which it is), isn't Wham¡

― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 5 May 2010 20:13 (fifteen years ago)

yeah I really can't make it through "Wham! Rap" whereas I can play "Ant Rap" on endless repeat

― it means "EMOTIONAL"! (HI DERE), Wednesday, 5 May 2010 20:14 (fifteen years ago)

"Wham! Rap" all the way. "Ant Rap" was just a pathetic "song" built around a band that was 99 per cent image/videos while "Wham! Rap" at least shows off some moments of brilliant (sung) vocal from George Michael. They would make better stuff later though.

Btw, I believe this is the first time I have ever heard the original single mix of "Wham! Rap".

― Tied Up In Geir (Geir Hongro), Wednesday, 5 May 2010 21:31 (fifteen years ago)

gonna lol when the vote tally ends up being 53 - 1 in favor of "Ant Rap"

― it means "EMOTIONAL"! (HI DERE), Wednesday, 5 May 2010 21:31 (fifteen years ago)

I've never felt more firmly on the right side of history as I do now.

Jedward did "Wham! Rap" on X Factor last year.

loooooooooool

― it means "EMOTIONAL"! (HI DERE), Wednesday, 5 May 2010 21:34 (fifteen years ago)

...and there's the clincher.

― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 5 May 2010 21:35 (fifteen years ago)

Jedward do have that effect on people's rear irises.

I still stand by "Wham! Rap" although "Young Guns (Go For It!) >> "Wham! Rap".

― Tied Up In Geir (Geir Hongro), Wednesday, 5 May 2010 21:48 (fifteen years ago)

a band that was 99 per cent image/videos

do you ever get tired of being totally wrong?

Oh man as much as I love Ant Rap (which is a lot tbh) I have to vote Wham. Why? Because it's fucking hysterical.

GM rapping "Hey everybody take a look at me I've got street credibility." is pure gold.

Should have been a three way poll with 'Roll The Bones'.

But it's not even a proper song. Just a bunch of pointless lines repeated over and over. And way too much drums getting out of control in the background.

so what if you got Marco , Merrick, Terry lee, Gary Tibbs and yours truly...

...pepsi and shirley would still pwn your asses in a streetfight !!!

but y'all do look better in make up

This is actually hard!!!!!! Ant Rap is not too bad!!!!! The rap has a silent "C" (!!!!!) but the "go for a curry" bit is no worse than the "I've got more flavor than a packet of macaroni" type gubbins one hears at least once every Beastie Boys long player!!!!! But it's the backing that's the main draw, a mix of burundi and baille that I've not heard too much on rap chunes since (MIA's "Bird Flu" being a noble exceptiony!!!!!!!) but would be a jolly good backing for a rappy chappy if they want to give it a spin!!!!!

However "WHAM!!!!!!! Rap!!!!!!" wins by a plastic surgeon's sculpted nizzog!!! The backing, although more el mainstreamo, is much more integrated with the rap, which is flippin' hilarious!!!!!! Never mind going for a curry, on what other platter could you hear a future stadium packer-outerer start his debut part with: "Hey everybody, take a look at me!!!!!!!!!! I've got street credibilty!!!!!!"

So it's Mr GeorgIus on points!!!! Have a good time- on the line!!!!!!

This is like Sophie's Choice, it was always destined to end up a tie.

I was gonna say this was a great thread, but then I realized it was just a bunch of pointless lines repeated over and over.
