he is not making fun of Jamaicans, he is taking the piss out of the idiots who go to college and decide they want dreds and pretend to be rasta just because they smoke weed and listen to Bob... so if you like it, that's cool... he isn't being racist, IMO :) i think it's a good song..
@KaminaDragon if i were you i'd prolly feel mildly insulted. 'course, when people make fun of indians, i usually laugh and say "that's so true" so i guess it depends.
Apparently it's used a lot as slang. I saw some video about how it was stirring emotions in the gay population because of it's use in Rastafarian music.
Yeah ... I call word sensitivity "empowering" a word/label. I just figured I'd mention it since he's calling for "fire 'pon Babylon and fire 'pon a batty boy." Ha ha People ought to know exactly what it is they're cursing. lol
Actually it is when u consider that rastafarianism (while not the main religion of the country) is quite popular in Jamaica. Most if not all of the phrases used in the video came from Jamaica and a lot of humour is added on when u actually know what most of the words in the song mean.
I'm White and Rasta. I pissed my pants at this song!!!!!! It's toooooo funny. It is true many young white males do claim to be part of the Rastafari movement without a proper understanding of it... this video is a great satire of those people. But we are not all like that. And if you disagree with me, I'll call you an ignorant baldhead! lol, I kid, freedom of speech for the win
Whenever I see anyone downtown that looks like a "Ras Trent" type person, I say BADADINGDINGDINGDING WHOAAAA and see what they do, but usually they're too high to notice.
I got to the University of Colorado so I see these Ras Trent fuckers all the time. Whenever they walk by my car I roll down the windows and blast this song lol...
It's a movie about 4 jamaicans who make a Bobsled team, to compete in the Winter Olympics. For most people it's the only acceptable Jamaican Movie, which is why he brought it up ^_^.
As A JAMAICAN person, this song is slightly insulting. I know abt free speech blah blah blah, but this song definately is not as funny as they can be. But I'm wondering if they know the real meaning behind half of the words they using? HAHAHA!
I think the joke is that the geek using all these words without any idea what they mean, he's just totally out of it.. It makes a bit more sense if you see the vieo.
chill out, it's not like they mean to offend anyone. it's either funny or not. they're making a satire about how a lot of white guys smoke weed and try to be a rastafarian.
He killed many african ethnicities during his reign, like the oromos, how can one worship a random guy, if he had power he woiuld have have never lost his throne, or die, people have to wake up and smell the real shit
No, he's pretty much mocking Rastafarians, I'm not quite sure if they all believe in Selassie but the majority of Jamaica is Christian....just saying : /
ya, Rastafarianism isnt all that popular anywhere its just a minority thats present everywhere, but we hear about it and just make the stereotype that its just jamaicans
its getting pretty big here to, Im living in the netherlands atm, guess the free weed (i know its a stereotype) might have buffed the rastafarianism as a fad originally to only invite more serious rastafarianism?
Quite possibly one of the most brilliant comedy songs I've heard in a long time. Sums up some of the "Trustafarians" I met in college spot on. Plus all of the reggae diction is perfect. I cant believe they even used "Sky larking"! Hahahhah BRILLIANT!
well it is an awesome religion as far as religions can be considered awesome. its like the least horrible one if you will. except for the homophobia, oh no, they all have that, right.
I am, however, confused as to whom i was "dissing". I was just asking a simple question regarding this particular song where Samberg sounds like Jim Carrey. A +9 tells me that others do agree.
Thanks Captain Obvious, but that was not what i was asking. For all the people who have trouble reading i will elaborate more... Does the singer of this song (Andy Samberg, it's spelt Sam not Sand, btw.) sound like Jim Carrey (the Canadian comedian/actor) while he is singing this song (Ras Trent, from The Lonely Island)? nuff said?
wears the original video???
