It's just a blur to me. I think there was a "dick short like danny de vito" and "she dropped to her knees and did the tim tebow" in there somewhere.

the "looked out on my back porch" zing on riff raff haunts my thoughts btw

if i try really hard to be better at self-parody will you post my youtubes and worship me ironically?

i'd have to see the youtubes first, but possibly, yes.

also i understand that riff raff's whole thing is soaked in irony but my appreciation for him is mostly genuine.

tarantino would totally cast riff raff, too

one thing i do like about Riff Raff is that he stole Whitefolkz's career

I asked Riff Raff in an email interview if he'd ever had problems with the law and he replied, "Yeah, I do actually have a problem with them because every time they come around they want to give u ticket to pay them ... But then one time I tried to pull a police man over and ask him for money and he wouldn't give it to me .. Why?"
― pandemic, Thursday, 24 May 2012 19:30 (twelve years ago) link
Also I would v much like it if one day Riff Raff did in fact own a diamond-encrusted school bus.

Although he gained notoriety from his appearance on the show, briefly changed his rap name from Riff Raff to MTV Riff Raff after it aired, and got the MTV logo tattooed on his neck, Riff Raff does not like to talk about From G's to Gents anymore: "They were going to have my name be Hector on the show and they weren't gonna let me wear my chain," he told me in an email last week. "I would like to never allow magazines to ask me about it at all, because that is to me what Rihanna is to Chris Brown. Nothing good came from it."

this is pretty excruciating:
"Holograms on my hand gave me a tanned wristDiamonds dancing on my fist look like a blank discTeriyaki suit with the lemon FantaHeavyweight, heartburn: Mylanta
The first line means that the diamonds in his jewelry look like holograms and reflect the sun to tan his wrist. The diamonds in his ring look like blank CDs. The last two lines are free-associative, but it seems like they're obliquely about a fat man."

His rhymes often owe more to Dr. Seuss than they do to Dr. Dre, and it's exciting to hear rappers rap like this, without concern for the boundaries of the genre.
― some dude, Thursday, 24 May 2012 20:03 (twelve years ago) link

"His rhymes often owe more to Dr. Seuss than they do to Dr. Dre" is not incorrect but is still the saddest piece of lol rap criticism ever written
― some dude, Thursday, 24 May 2012 23:16 (twelve years ago) link
1. Trying to get "behind the mask" of riff raff misses the point of riff raff 2. How on earth could you write a piece like that without acknowledging the giant elephant of RACE 3. Tko capone's "gucci louis" has many more times as many views as any riff raff song which makes me o_O at the disproportionate coverage but never underestimate media fascination with a cartoonish white rapper

those are def harry potter hits dude. a girl i know who had a minor role in HP has 5000+ twitter followers all called stuff like potterhead574.
― tpp, Wednesday, 30 May 2012 14:10 (eleven years ago) link
tko capone is kinda interesting in his own right, but i think riff raff is much more interesting in many ways than capone, even if he doesn't have a "hit" with the views of "harry potter"

perhaps it'd be possible to put this theory to the test if Riff Raff made a song that was titled after an extremely famous pop culture phenomenon
