Babies…cry…because…a…hurricane?

Ok, look, I’m not one to beat a dead internet meme, especially when it’s now evolved into Diet Chocolate Cherry Dr Pepper, but apparently Tay Zonday has other songs?

Before you just totally write this off as “tlda” (too late dumb ass), listen to his medly of “Swing low, Sweet chariot” and “Amazing Grace”. Someone put this kid in “Showboat”. Listen to “Love” and think Kate Bush’s seminal “Running Up That Hill” (aka “the only time a human being has ever used a Fairlight”).

The rest of his other stuff? Call me crazy, but if this whole “8 Bit I’mma-make-a-song-and-not-try” thing is really going to catch on this year, and since snap, crunk and hyphy have all been kinda quiet on the new-production front, Tay needs to farm this stuff out to Chris Brown and the like. Maybe he could produce the great Usher comeback record.

Also, his official t-shirt is pretty fucking nifty:


It’s a shame that, were you to wear this shirt, you’d end up getting your ass kicked nigh-instantly.

In the event you’ve no freaking clue what started this, just peep a gander at the Youtube clip that wouldn’t stop in 07:

‘Nuff said. And remember: Chocolate Rain. The schoolbooks say it can’t be here again**.

**wtf?

Note from …trixie: Tay Zonday will be playing TONIGHT in Brooklyn at Club Europa. Details are here at Brooklyn Vegan.
