We srumbled across this music video and thought we’d share it. It’s for a song called “Gay” by the Rump Rangers off their album 2 Many Holes 2 Fill.
At the beginning it claims to be the first gay video to show on “Yo MTV Raps” on October 10, 1986. Allegedly, it was so offensive that it never aired again.
We’re pretty sure that’s bullshit, but we don’t care. It made us laugh out loud, and we suspect you’ll have a similiar reaction. That is, unless you’re a tight ass and easily affronted. If that’s the case, you’ll probably, well, get a bit disgruntled.
Give it a gander, after the jump!
How about we take this to the next level?

That is HILARIOUS!!!! 1986 really? I mean, its lyrics are amazingly bad, but when you put it in the context of the 80s, its groundbreaking, and not quite so bad.

Bryan, you cute little hobag. 80s and rap never got even close to that level (albeit poorly) “back in the day”. The vid is a farce (I’m surprised they were so blatant with the intro) and Yo MTV Raps! ran from 1988 to 1995. Run DMC and the Beastie Boys were the hottest MTV items…oh, and Robbie Van Winkle (buhah) of the day. I’m not sure why I’m the walking Wikipedia today, but your comment was funnier than the video. No offense meant.

Heyhey, that video is most definitely a farce. That drum beat is one of the stock loops on Apple’s Garageband, 10 points for effort though
