I chose this video because I recently seen it on my FaceBook news feed and even though I've seen it before I found it funny and worth putting up as my video for homework. It incorporates pseudo-politics mixed in with southern rap. I personally don't enjoy listening to Waka Flocka Flame but I find his music funny in a way, and the remix even funnier.

  1. Eddie, you write, "It incorporates pseudo-politics mixed in with southern rap. I personally don't enjoy listening to Waka Flocka Flame but I find his music funny in a way, and the remix even funnier."

    What do you mean by pseudo-politics? Explain. I don't think it's that political. I think there are other aspects to the remix that stand out to me. Good remix.

  2. I really enjoyed this remix out of all others. I think that the video intended to poke fun at two different things: (1) the original Waka Flocka Flame song and (2) the Obamas. In both ways, I think it succeeded and therefore was effective.

    Although I, too, am not a fan of Waka Flocka Flame, I enjoyed the remix video, even though the basis of the song revolved around the original Flocka Flame song. I also felt that the song portrayed certain racial stereotypes, and I felt that it indirectly threw out a message about a specific race and the behaviors associated with it.

    Overall, I enjoyed the humor and wildness behind the remix video.
