  • of course this is a joke. I actually find the idea of translating LOTR into ebonics sort of hilarious, but then again that's because I like absurd humour :)

  • cmon guys, its satire, a joke, not for serious, get it? good

  • this must be a comic sketch or something?!?

  • isn't this the guy from flight of the conchords?

  • So to summarize: he has taken an amazing set of books and shit on them.

    Straight forward - shit on them.

    Dickhead.

  • This poor man is a fool, unquestionably.

  • Interesting... maybe this guy could direct the adaptation of Lord of the Shinazzle!!!

  • A Tolkien scholar who also studies urban rap music..... OK, sure why not. Maybe you will get a grant....

    I think not.

  • Is this guy for real? I would guess he was a loner with no girlfriend as a child. Maybe even still a loner from the looks of it.

  • Apparently sarcasm is lost on some... learn to read!

  • satire is lost on some... buy a clue!

  • Hey, it's not all that far-fetched. Tupac/Turin Turambar, anyone?

    Tragedy.

  • i agree with jobie, theres no way this is for real

  • Uh, guys...? I do believe this is supposed to be satire... :P

  • Brilliant!

  • Interesting! You're a Tolkien scholar and you don't know it's pronounced "Tol-keen", not "Tol-kin."

  • it's pronounced tolkien

  • It would be nice to think that -- Tol-kee-ehn sounds so Noldorin -- and I pronounced it myself that way for years, but according to "The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien", when a fan asked the good Prof how he pronounces his name, Tolkien himself wrote it out phonetically pretty much the way I did. If you're not a "Tolkien scholar," like this guy claims to be, you can be excused for not knowing that, but HE can't.

  • Wow this guy is pathetic

  • We love you, Tayshaun! (and your ethnimusicology!)
