We received some great entries. Some people took a serious musical approach and virtually created entire new songs. Others mixed in quotes and clips from past LRR songs or videos. Still others wrote their own raps to go with the beats that Jer built. All of these approaches yeilded some interesting results. Thank you to everyone who participated!

In the end, we had to pick a single winner… Kind of. The winning entry was submitted by a partnership of three LRR fans who wrote and recorded their own themed rap. In England!

Congratulations to The Jester, Oli Boy, and sk8sheep24! You will all be receiving forum medals to commemorate your victory.

We’re big fans of the environment (it’s where we keep all our stuff), so we know it’s important to recycle.

Help us out by recycling the beats from the latest episode of commodoreHUSTLE and make your own rap, or remix ours, do whatever you want as long as it uses some of Jer’s phat beats!

Here’s an instrumental MP3 of the track, and for those with a Mac, the Garageband file, for maximum remixation.

Original Lyrics

The runners are back -crack-crack on the streets
With a dot-dot-circle we’re the triad to beat
Although we’re white we rep rights for minorities
And appreciate the nuance of their comedy

We don’t torture puppies and we don’t beat girls
But we’ll photoshop your assets with mosaic and twirl
We’re the hardest crop of nerds in the V8V
You’ll know we’re coming by the laughter of our enemies

We’re not above the law and we’re not about the fame
We think communist dictatorships are really pretty lame
Our beats may not be fresh, but they’re ziplocked and cooled
And our fans will never notice, like dark helmet we’ve FOOLED YOU

The runners are sweet
We own these streets
Or at least we’re considering a layaway lease
You can use these leet beats to write your own song
