Short-Term Mating Dance - Baba Brinkman

From "The Rap Guide to Human Nature", appearing now at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. http://www.babasword.com

Filmed on location at C Bar, Edinburgh, August 2004, during my first ever Fringe. My brother Erik cruised through the bar with a handycam capturing some hilarious footage, and I wrote the song to go with it, taking some inspiration from the BBC Blue Planet series. Can anyone name all the animals referenced by the Attenborough quotes?

Produced by the Mighty Mr. Simmonds, Edited by Tommy Nagle, also did the animation for "Off That (Rationalist Anthem)". Check it:

Another epic vid from Baba. Your marriage of art and science is what the world needs for the future.

Baba helped me revise for my Evolutionary Psychology exam- I got a first. Thanks Baba!

This put a huge smile on my face, usually I'm the lost solitary male wondering which girl to face, I was grinning from ear to ear at that

Hey Baba... This is GREAT.... 

[ScentedNectar]

They are right, us Canadians DO sound British! :)

Another really good one, by the way.

I discovered BaBa a year ago but this is the first video I've seen of one his raps -- it's great. Baba Brinkman raps about Evolutionary Theory, give it a listen. If you like it, look for the full album and his rap version of the Canterbury Tales.

He's faking the British accent here.
