The simple explanation for this video is that Swede Mason (previously at Neatorama) has Paul McCartney doing a rap song about modern music. That doesn't quite do it justice, however. The tight editing, fast rhythm, and masterful rhyming make it a quirky masterpiece.
Someone asked swedemason how he made videos like this.
Alot of grinding. I don't use transcribed audio. I think it sounds shit when things are kinda just stuck together with the correct words. I look for the right intonation of sounds and syllables, sometimes chop up words to make the words i need. Writing this down makes it sound like a total ballache, and thats cos it is a total ballache.
And there ensued a discussion on the proper pronunciation and meaning of ballache, because it looks like a French musical term. He meant ball ache. -via reddit
And McCartney's not bad, either...
