i have the chords down but what are you doing for the solo part around 1:10. i dont have a uke in front of me right now so its hard to figure out. thanks!
lovin the beat, i feel like the overly dry sounding "im an average white guy" rapping is so overdone and corny... u shoulda just sang. cool concept tho.
He is singing it. You can't change how the lyrics flow without changing the rest of the song. He sung as much as he could with the format of the lyrics.
@blowbags2008 i have definitely been called too negative, and i am probably biased by deep love of de la soul. i think the music sounds awesome, but his voice has absolutely no "flowing" to it the way the original does. thats what i was trying to say. to me it sounds like hes reading a list, not flowin'. check out the bouncing souls covering sick of it all's "good lookin out". great ukelele tune
you should have spent the extra to get the fruit design mahalo lolz. i got it 2 days ago, this vid is part of what influenced me to get a uke. fucking ace!
I totally stumpled above this by accident & sir I hate you for this being my favorite upload on you tube today. It put a smile on my face, I love this record and your version is great fun.
I have to say that is seriously outstanding! Gee that takes skill. I might send the audio to my bro in law...he`s a Scot!! He sometimes does stand up comedy here in Oz under the name of Barry McLeod. (thought i`d chuck that in) -Daz in Sydney
Great, simple performance. Awesome. And thank you so much for posting the modifications you've done; I just bought one, after a lot of indecision on which to buy on a budget :P
yall negative ass clowns dont need to listen, but respect the dude for respectin the hip hop thats true and real to us all man, you dont have to sound great to make somthin great. GOOD SHIT!
Excellent tune and excellent version. Really got my head bobbing and took me back to summers in my teens. Has it been that long? omg, thanks for that :p
great job love it ........

@dboyoioi - Not to accuse you of being too negative but; the original is very "talky" too - it's not exactly singing, just like a flowing voice.
